Charlotte, or Charlie, is a tuxedo DSH with light green eyes. I adopted her back in April 2013 at MCAS. She had been there for 3 months and I just clicked with her. She is affectionate and loves to have her head scratched. She'll jump into my lap and loves her treats, but she isn't a lap cat per se. She'll take affection readily and will be held, but she's still a bit on the skittish side.
Daisy is my second cat. I didn't rescue her. When I adopted Charlie, she wasn't spayed. And soon she escaped outside and was mated with a siamese stray. She had a spay date but she couldn't get it because she had kittens. She had 9 kittens in total but when I found her in the laundry room the night she gave birth, 3 seemed lifeless. I took the first one, a black and white tuxedo, and cleared out her mouth and nose and rubbed her fur backwards. But it didn't make a sound. The second I put the kitten down though, it mewed. Again I wiped at it's nose and mouth and it made more mews. That tuxedo kitten survived and that kitten is Daisy. She is the sweetest kitten you could ever ask for. She loves to jump on my shoulder when the water faucet is turned on, also loves chasing anything. Her favorite time is meals. She is an odd cat as she loves her belly rubbed and she has such soft belly fur. She has the siamese cat's build and fur, but her mom's colors. She has yellow eyes instead of green.
The third animal is a dog I rescued from MCAS just a few weeks ago. She's a border collie/corgi mix with blue eyes. Estimated at 2 years of age, so she's the middle child. She is smart and knows lay down and sit. I'll pat my chest and she'll jump up and cuddle on me. I honestly already love her already. She came house trained which was a plus. She is scared of Charlie, but will chase Daisy if Daisy runs first. I keep her on a Halo food diet right now with limited treats as she has some bathroom issues right now. But it seems to be working.
You'll notice there are way more pics of Daisy then Charlie. That's because,even though Charlie is closer to my heart (i've had her the longest out of all my animals) Daisy is a total hang-out-with-you-at-the-computer-type cat. She will follow me around even though both cats usually come when called.
So those are my rescues.
Oh and btw the two lifeless kittens of Charlie's didn't make it, but the other six, plus Daisy, did. All found homes.
