There is a new member of the Greenbriar Household. GRIDLEY was adopted at 10 AM
he is a long haired orange tabby cat that weighs a ton, sheds a LOT and is 3 years old.

Daughter spent her own money 85 bucks from LAPP and after a background check and such we got the call that we could adopt.

The funny thing is, she is a dog person, but she got me Spooky for my birthday and then we tried with the little baby last month and she had been wanting a cat ever sense. she is so loving and protective of her new " baby "

I will post pictures when we get them uploaded

12. I hear it's good.
If it doesn't succeed, it will be because of it's location. (Pickles Gap Village, between Conway and Greenbrier)

4. well, I will post some as soon as I can. Currently, he is making his home under the couch
We just got back from the Vet...he is in perfect health and they gave him some flea medication.


It is a courtesy when you adopt. Cool

8. Handsome guy! He's kinda got a Maine Coon face
does he have tuffs on his ears, and longer fur on his belly and "britches"?

The boxy muzzle really gives him that look. Maine Coons are very dog like cats (much more like large breeds than small ones, though).

10. I was thinking the same thing.
He looks like he might be at least part maine coon. He doesn't quite have the full ruff though, and you can't see enough to really tell if he's got the double-layered fur.

He's a very handsome cat though.

I love maine coons. :)

Please give your daughter a big hug and say that one of your friends online really loves her for this. :hug:
