Adoption Needed - Frosting

Frosting came to us as one of the Fantastic Fifteen.  She was just a tiny kitten then.

 

Baby Frosting

 She has now lived in the cathouse for a year and a half - her entire life.  She is the ONLY one left from that entire group of fifteen.   Frosting will be a cat who will adjust right away and be glad for all of the attention she can get.  She is not aggressive towards the other cats in the cathouse, and she quite enjoys the kittens.  She is beautiful and needy.  I literally trip over her as I go about my work in the cathouse; she glues herself to me as I move around.  Frosting is the most desperate cat in the cathouse as far as wanting human attention.  Considering that many of the cats I have for adoption are much less social and will take some adjustment time in a new home, you would think Frosting would be snatched right up.  But Frosting has a problem.  This makes her one of those “less adoptable” kitties.                                 Frosting nibbles.

Now.  As I’ve said about Frosting many other times, she has never - and I mean NEVER - bitten out of aggression.  She developed two really bad habits as a youngster.  One - she jumped from whatever surface she was on right to your shoulder.  And Two - she gave love bites, mostly on the chin of whoever was lucky enough to reap her affections.  She no longer leaps onto the people she so desperately desires.  But she still gives love bites.  I get them EVERY time I am in the cathouse.  I can’t seem to get my hand over my chin in time, and she nabs me before I can cover.  Of course, these aren’t the kind of bites that draw blood.  They are definitely “soft” bites.  I have been dealing with this in Frosting for a long, long time, and it is still really annoying.  But there is just no doubt about what Frosting is doing when she nibbles my chin (or occasionally the tip of my nose or my fingers) - she is loving me.  Maybe that sounds strange to you.  But I’ve known Frosting for a year and a half now.  She shows her desperation and affection with a love bite - every time.





I don’t know if Frosting ever got into a home and finally received as much affection as she needs if this behavior would moderate.  I just know there MUST be someone out there who wouldn’t mind some regular (annoying) cat love from Miss Frosting.  She SO very much wants a human of her own.  And except for this one annoying behavior, there is nothing else about Frosting not to love.  A true companion she will be.

Friends, please pass this along.  FB it, tweet it, share it, email it.  Winnie's Wish is looking for the PERFECT home for Frosting.  Is it you?

Frosting is a beautiful cat and I so hope she finds a loving home. xx

I have a cat that does something similar - we call them "love nibbles". He has never broken the skin or drawn blood, so we don't call them bites. (Especially when we could contrast his gentle nibbles with a cat who used to get too excited sometimes and sink her teeth into your hand up to the gumlines! Absolutely no comparison.)

what?? there is something wrong with the love bites?? don't tell mom - cause that Bourbon boy is a nibbler too.... :)

My black kitty -Big face alis Lap cat or LP nibbles at you if you don't let him set on your lap or pet him on your stomach. He is a great cat. we have had him for 12 years - he is getting slower and older but still the sweet lap cat of our house. He sets on husbands lap in the computer room every night. He loves his daddy. Frosting will be the same way. Forever loving and loyal and may nibble but not draw blood. If a person wants a forever companion adopt Frosting. You will not ever be sorry. Shout out for adoption for Frosting -Ginny & The Fur Family

Aw, those kind of love nibbles are cute, and yes, I think they do lessen as a kitty grows older, especially if they're getting the daily requirement of human lovin', MOL! But some kitties need to mouth things and people, it's like claiming them. What a sweet pretty girl Frosting is! Her adoption photo on the side doesnt show off her beautiful markings like these pictures do! So sleek and gorgeous! Who wouldn't love some calico love! Or is that torbie because she's got stripes? Either way, she's lovely!
Yes, please, lets find her a home quick!

Oh boy, it's brick time too!! I'm really thinking about what my next one will say, are you??
Books! Holidays are coming, what a great gift!
Donations! Look at how many kitties need to be fed every single day! Not to mention litter... help if you can!

We must admit it! StarWalker BitCat the ComputerKitty, who is the eldest black cat of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Kitty Horde is also a love biter!! We can also tell you that a Winnie's Wish Kitty is the BEST!! Our youngest black cat, Lady Audrey Nova StarWatcher is a Winnie's Wish Kitty!! It was absolutely wonderful meeting up with Chrystal at the KY border and picking her up! It took awhile for her to become comfortable with the rest of the Horde and she's just now really really adapting completely but I knew that going in.

BTW Chrystal? Guess what?! Today Audrey ate treats with... ::drum roll:: Knives on her left, Star on her right, Rose in front, Thomas behind her and she didn't squirm out until Zaphy came squeezing in between her & Star!!! YAY!!!!

Frosting sounds delightful, and we hope and pray that someone will adopt her soon. We bet there's someone out there who loves getting love bites!

I was out to Tractor Supply today and saw the notice for The Book - Daily dose, that I took out there on the bulletin board. It is located back by the restrooms where both men and women can see it, and there is a lot of farm notices on the board so people stop to read the notices. I always get so happy when I see the book advertised.They are having a sale that is the best I have seen on Purena cat chow 11.99. They have 40 lbs of Tidy cat for 4.99. I have bought two 40 lbs this week. I love to go there and catch their sales. I do hope someone out there will consider adopting frosting. That would be a very good thing for a person wanting a new furry. I found some paw med for bone strength for aging kitties like mine, and some calming med for the paw. My cat Hansel alis Boy, roams the house talking all night. JUST A STRIP ABOUT ONE INCH LONG ON A FOOT AND THEY LICK IT OFF. IT MUST TASTE PRETTY GOOD BECAUSE THEY ALL LICK IT OFF.... HAVE A GOOD NIGHT.GINNY & The fur family
