THE CHESNEY CAT'S -- INTRODUCTION

This is Sammy, he's my oldest at 5 yrs. old. I got him from the Humane Society when he was 4 months old. He actually chose me...........he was in a cage with his brother (Sosa) whom I was petting. Sammy walked up, knocked his brother out of the way & started rubbing his head on my fingers & purring. I knew right then he was for me. He can be very loving, but when he's had enough, he lets you know. He is very good at putting the bitey on you when he's done being loved on.

Festus is my tuxie boy. He is just about the sweetest cat ever! I got him from a friend of my sister's. He was one of several barn kitties & the only one with long hair. I was a little put out at first because I didn't want a long-haired cat. But when I picked him up, he snuggled as close to me as he could get & started purring. My heart melted right then & there. When he was smaller, he would climb up on my shoulder & suck on my neck as I watched TV or sat at the computer. He doesn't sit on my shoulder anymore, but he still sucks on my neck. He sleeps with me & snuggles as close as he can to me in bed. He's 4 yrs old.

The baby is Emma, she's 2 yrs old. She's another barn kitty, I got her from my sister's in-laws. I decided I needed a baby girl to round out my family. When I brought her home......oh was she a spitfire!! She hissed & growled at the boys like they were invading her space instead of the other way around. It wasn't too long before she & Sammy started snuggling & playing. She would groom him forever if he'd let her. Emma & Festus, on the other hand, didn't get along at all. She just did not want anything to do with him. She tolerates him now for the most part, but there are still times I hear her growling at him. She can be a love bug sometimes, but only on her terms.
