I also had a tortie kitten I brought home. She was wandering around the sidewalk. When I stopped to take a look, she climbed onto my shoe and sat there. I did not see any other cats, nor children nearby, and it was next to a very busy street, so I brought her home. She was covered in fleas!
She would do things that I did not approve of, such as leaping into my dresser when I had the drawer open. And she was just so cute, that I could not scold her, because I was laughing too hard.

Well she leaps on me, climbs me. She does not try to be delicate with her paws. She wrestles with the dog. She escapes over huge barriers, under doors. She has got every naughty cat trick in the book. Then she becomes a soft little noodle and purs at the top of her lungs.

Yes, my tortie did about the same. if i was kneeling on the ground for gardening, she would jump onto my back and climb up to my shoulder.

Well, she got spayed today. It's funny, the last time I had an animal spayed, I was offered Laser surgery and the operation cost exactly as much as the operation that was done on Luna with a knife and SUTURES! I can't believe it! Thread! Now, I must take an entire day off work to get her in for 5 minutes to get the thread taken out. I want to move back to a large civilized city so badly! There is nothing out here and it is driving me CRAZY!

Can't you get someone to hold her and you can take them out yourself? Just cut the tread and pull the knot. (don't cut the knot) Someone on there was using a fingernail clipper. Don't use that use a small manicure scissors, cut the thread, then pull the knot and the suture will come out. There are a bunch on how to remove sutures from a cat, dog and people on Youtube.

I am totally tempted, wintergirl. I had no idea that they would be using thread instead of melting sutures or whatever they are called. i am perfectly capable.
