I adopted two cats and I am yet to name them.
Hello, animal and pet lovers! I hope you are doing well. The last time I was here, I spoke about things to know before adopting a tortoise without realizing I would be talking about my own pet today.
After visiting the community for a while, I saw different amazing pet stories, so I decided to share mine.
The truth is that, I was never a cat person, or should I say, I was brought up to fear and dislike cats, but everything changed after I started reading about them. Some years ago, I visited a friend who had a good numbers of cats as pet. I was reluctant to enter her home, but I did, and the cats became very friendly with me. I was scared of carrying them at first, but I did, and from that day on, I became a lover of cats.
I work from home, and I am always indoors. Sometimes it gets so lonely, so I spoke with my friend, and she asked me to come pick up some cats. I got to her place; it was a hard for me to pick, but I did pick these two because they seem to always walk together.
I didn't take pictures of the other cats because I was anxious and excited at the same time. When I brought them home, they were of me or even allowed to touch them. Before I left my friend's home, she gave me a good number of pieces of advice on how to care for them. I did what she asked of me. I took them to the vet, but they are still scared of me.
They look so much alike I can't tell them apart because they both look alike. This has made it very difficult for me to name them.
One of them is very active. It was just moving all around the room, while the other one just kept to herself. I went to my room and left my door open just to see the two cats on my bed sleeping too. I spent most of the day getting their home fixed and the place where they would take their dumb. I was told I had to train them for that.
Anytime I try touching them, they won't let me. They keep backing up but will always follow me anywhere I go, like a mother duck. If I close my room door, they will cry, meow, and meow until I open it, yet they will always try to run when I want to pat them. They are still young, I guess.
I will do by best to take care of them and make sure they have the best home.
Thanks for reading. If there are more tips you think I should know about, I will be happy if you share them with me.

Yeah, they are so cute. I’m having difficulty naming them cause I want to give them a good name
Te felicito bella fue una acertada decisión,yo adopte a 5 gatitos y estoy enamorada de ellos y decir que al principio no era amante de los gatos ahora los amo.😘
Thanks for the comment. I am still trying to get use to them. one poo on my bed, I still need to pay more attention to them so I can train them well. !BBH
Hello uy how bad that he pooped in the bed, but don't worry maybe he is still scared and that's why that kind of behavior happened to me also the second day of having them, one of them got on the bed and pooped but they got used to their sandbox and I have no problems with them, they don't give me work at all, they are very quiet, I adopted 5 kittens.
Yeah
I got them a sandbox today and I was surprised how fast they learned to use it.
I was scared of allowing them into my room but now, I think I can allow them because they have been using the sand box. I don’t know why they suddenly became so clingy
Adorable 😍
Thanks @marjanko 😊
I also don't like cat. But after reading this I have a 10% change of heart towards them lol.
I am literally smelling children on you with this post 😂

Smelling children on me keh. She’s very far away.
And 10% is too small😂😂
!BBH
Trust me 10% is a big leap with what they made us to believe about cats.
You said you work from home, is it UI/UX related? I remembered you mentioned that sometimes
It’s a technical job
I work for a tech company as a technical writer for the software and website they are building
Wow! God when
They are obviously growing too trust you, as they want to be near you.
The long slow blink, when you look into their eyes, close your eyes slowly and hold them closed for a few seconds, is a way that cats communicate to one another, "it's all good and I won't hurt you." Do that frequently for them. They understand it instinctively.
You can leave treats or bits of food, close to you, while you sit on the ground, and let them come to take the food.. Maybe don't even look at them at first, so they do not feel threatened. Leave a piece of food a little bit closer to yourself each time and sit very still and breathe calmly.
They're beautiful little kitties. They appear to be very young. I wish you the best of luck with them. Treat them with kindness and love and never ever hit them. They will bless you with love and sweetness and insight into yourself.
Thank you so much
I’ll do that frequently.
This comment is really helpful
lucky you! lucky kitties! hugs to you
