pps - As Momma announced in Thank you to our incredible friends, we are back to blogging ... maybe not every day yet ... but we are back! I've still got my work cut out for me because Momma's still a bit of a wreck ... but I'm working on it!
For those of you who don't know ... I was homeless and about eight months old when Momma and I met ... so please excuse the lack of tiny kitten pictures. Kitty and I weren't exactly best buds ... I don't understand why?!?!

Bear Cat: "Do de do ... piggy is my favorite toy, and I like this couch ... SO much better than the horrors of living outside! I have food and toys, it's warm, AND I even have my own water bowl!"
Kitty: "For real?!?! You have to choose MY sleeping spot on MY couch to play?! You have a WHOLE HOUSE to play around!"
Bear Cat: "I think it's time to introduce myself! HIIIIIIIIIII! I'm Bear! What's your name?"
Kitty: "LEAVE ME ALONE!"
Bear Cat: "Wow. I thought Momma named ME something strange! Who would've guessed a cat would be named Bear? But to be named LEAVE ME ALONE?!?! Sheesh!"
Kitty: {to Momma} "You just had to get a stupid one, didn't you?"
Bear Cat: "We're going to be best friends!"
Kitty: "Not likely."
Bear Cat: "None of the cats outside liked me! But I don't understand! I just like to be friendly!"
Kitty: "You say 'friendly' ... I say ANNOYING!"
Bear Cat: "Thank you!"
Kitty: "WHAT THE ... go be friendly OVER THERE!"
Bear Cat: "But, you're over HERE, LEAVE ME ALONE!"
Kitty: "EXACTLY!"
Bear Cat: "What's under your pillow, LEAVE ME ALONE? Is that where your favorite toys are?"
Kitty: "MOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!"
Bear Cat: "Oops. I slipped!"
Kitty: "HEY! I'm under here you know! You just have to mess around, you clumsy moron!"
Bear Cat: "Oh, no. My name's not Clumsy Moron! My name is Bear! It's nice to meet you!"
Bear Cat: "WHAT?!?! Was it something I said?!?! I'm cute, right, Momma? Maybe LEAVE ME ALONE is just intimidated by my handsomeness!"

For more conversations between Kitty and Bear ...
I guess someone will take a while to warm to you eh little guy? Hang in there, sometimes a sisfur or brofur takes a while to become a friend.
ReplyDeleteLet's hope.
*hugs*
We never did get along ... the best we could do was a fragile peace. I know Momma misses Kitty something fierce, but I like being an only child! ~Bear Cat
DeleteHehe, I know making new friends can be daunting, but looks like it was real hard work for you, both! purrs ERin PS. What you need is a circular sofa with either no cushions and arms, or a single cushion and arm that goes all the way round. ?
ReplyDeleteHmmmm ... you have a point ... or a circle ... I think? ~Bear Cat
DeleteLol ! you are both beautiful cats and what big eyes !! Even lazer eyes ! Very cute !
ReplyDeleteYes, my two babies. Thank you!
DeleteHope you two get used to each other soon. It is hard to adjust to new cats. Have a great Sunday.

DeleteWe enjoyed seeing the wee small Bear! I was 9 months old when I was adopted so we don't have any kitten pics of me either!
ReplyDeleteWe make up for it in our adult handsomeness, right? ~Bear Cat
DeleteYou were a cute little Bear Kitten. Those were very powerful lasers that Kitty aimed at you.
ReplyDeleteWe were 5 1/2 weeks when we came to our home. It was to keep Kitty Yumbum company when the last of her brofurs died. She hated us at first and would escape up onto the bed. Eric soon managed to scrabble up there and would follow her everywhere. She soon got to love us and wouldn't let us out of her sight.
Kitty and I never became friends ... not from lack of me trying! I do have to admit though that I was quite annoying ... I'm not sure how I would handle a little pipsqueak like I was :) ~Bear Cat
DeleteYou 2 look so cute together. I love Kitty's snarky personality- I guess she taught you well :)
ReplyDeleteI'm starting to think the snark started with my Momma. I shall investigate further ... ~Bear Cat
DeleteBear, these are some fun pics. But Kitty obviously did not agree. ;)
ReplyDeleteWe've adopted all of our cats as older adults, so we don't have kitten photos, eother. We love it when there are kittens at the shelter with similar markings/faces, because we can imagine that's what our cats looked like when they were little.
Hugs to you and Momma Kat!
It's hard to believe that when Momma brought me inside, I only weighed 4 pounds (at ~8 mths old) ... now I weigh 14! Then again, I was cold and hungry ... life on the streets sucks! Maybe one day every cat will have a loving home like I do! ~Bear Cat
DeleteLooking cute and scary. Those eyes!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you found your forever momma :)
Purrs xx
Athena and Marie
Me too. Much like you and Athena, we saved each other. Many people express surprise when Momma tells them that (how can a cat save you? he was homeless and you gave him a home!!!) ... but it's true. We're good for each other :) ~Bear Cat
DeleteAw, Bear, I love your first statement showing how happy you were to be an indoor kitty in your forever home. So sweet. I love Kitty's spunk! Great pics!
ReplyDeleteMomma was really worried about how I'd adjust to being indoor only, but it was seamless. Seeing me today, you'd never know I knew any different. I only go outside now just to prove I can ... but I get scared if Momma gets out of my sight. ~Bear Cat
DeleteI think the answer all lies in the laser...I mean, those laser eyes can be very scary and... laser the other away...anyway, too bad you didn't get along with Kitty, BearCat, can't say that you haven't try...MOL :D Pawkisses for a Happy Halloween :) <3
ReplyDeleteI did try ... to be her friend ... and annoy her. Thank goodness I don't have a little me following ME around! ~Bear Cat
DeleteCute and fun pictures ! We're glad you found a wonderful home ! Purrs
ReplyDeleteDon't tell my Momma, but I did get very lucky! ~Bear Cat
DeleteYou were sure one adorable little kitty, Bear! We cannot understand why LEAVE ME ALONE didn't like you! We hope he finally came around to see what a handsome and fun guy you are.
ReplyDeleteJan & the crew at Wag n Woof Pets
Err ... not so much. LEAVE ME ALONE never liked me ... but I WAS an annoying pipsqueak ... hard to blame her! Sheesh, if I had a little me following me around, I wouldn't be happy either! ~Bear Cat
DeleteThose captions are hilarious! I think you tapped into their inner voices perfectly!
ReplyDeleteJean from Welcome to the Menagerie
Thank you! I think so too! There were/are so incredibly different in every way but appearance.
DeleteBear!!! OMC you were a precious baby! I would *kill* for a baby picture of Mudpie...
ReplyDeleteI was tiny ... even at 8 months old ... I only weighed 4 lbs! It's hard to believe that when I weigh 14 lbs now ... my Momma says it's heartwarming that you'd never know I was a homeless, scared, and hungry kitten by the way I possess my domain today :) ~Bear Cat
DeleteMy Angel Bobo was 6 months old when we met and he was homeless too!! Love your baby photos! Be sure to PM me your mailing address (on Facebook).......don't think you saw you were one of our winners!! catchatwithcarenandcody
ReplyDeleteJust PMed you! Thank you so much!
DeleteWhat a cutie you were, Bear. It's hard to be mad at some kit that cute.
ReplyDeleteAnd I use that to my advantage ... still ;) ~Bear Cat
DeleteAww, what great pics of you and Kitty!
ReplyDeleteOf course, MY pictures are cuter ... just saying. ~Bear Cat
DeleteOh Bear, ya'll are so cute. When me furst came here sis Lexi hated me and wanted to kill me. She splatted poor little 3 week old me on da kitchen floor. And she screamed at me, hissed at me and even growled at me. Hmmmmmmmm Guess me's just payin' it furward to sis Raena. MOL Anyways, big hugs and have a pawsum day.
ReplyDeleteLuv ya'
Dezi and Raena
I'm just thankful I don't have a pipsqueak like I was following me around and getting in my stuff! ~Bear Cat
DeleteWhat super adorable photos. You don't seem 10 years old now, Bear. You act just like a kitten. Thanks for hopping. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo

DeleteBear is chasing girl now :)
