What a lovely kitty! Latifah is very shy but absolutely adores the attention. I had a hard time getting her out of her cage. Usually after a while if they are just a bit stubborn, I will put my hand under their chest and pick them up, but Latifah here is probably a good 18 pounds. She is a bulky kitty to say the least. She was purring up a storm with me petting her and she loves to get pedicures. She was just kneading her bedding so much while I was trying to coax her out to play. Finally I did pick her up by gently scruffing her neck just enough so I could get my arm under her to heave her out. She have very pretty Torbie markings with lots of orange tabby on her face but the rest of her body as calico. I am not really sure what to call her coat. It is a mix of Tabby, Tortie and Calico. Latifah obviously doesn't belong in this shelter and she can't seem to get the pleasure of socializing with the volunteers because she is so very wary of her surroundings. It is quite noisy with all of the dogs, and so many people walking by her and looking at her is not good for her soul. I hope someone will look past her shyness and take her home soon. And then think about that diet she needs.
Bradly is just a love! He reminds me of my first love at the shelter, Tom Tom. He is a very handsome Tabby boy who is very affectionate and also loves to play. What a nice combination! I would have loved to have held Bradly like a baby and fall asleep with him in my arms, but I am still nervous about getting that snuggly with the kitties, especially the ones who don't mind getting feisty with the toys. Bradly is very soft and loves to be pet. He enjoyed lounging on the cat condo in the sun and having me stroke his body from ears to tail.
