The Redstone clan expands yet again. Say hello to Marcella.

[Redstone]

We went to the shelter today to look at one cat, and ended up coming home with a different one.

Funny, the shelter people told us to keep the kitten downstairs where the litterbox is for a few days by herself so she'd get acclimated to the new surrounding, but Marcie had her own ideas; she wanted to spend the afternoon walking on us on the couch, and getting her face licked by the puppy.

Here are the two Junior Redstones, with Casey and Marcie...who will be buddies by the end of the week, guaranteed.



It's been a damn good day.

1. Cutie pies!

I'm amazed the cat was so social so soon!

[Redstone]

5. She was NOT about to hang around downstairs when we were all clustered

on the couch. This is the right cat for us.

8. It sounds like it. Dino liked us right away, but he took a few days

to stop hanging out under the bed for hours at a time. Now (a little over a year later), he likes to attach himself to us as if with Velcro.

2. My dear Redstone!

Congrats on the newest addition!

The kitten looks adorable!

And your boys are both very handsome....

No surprise, considering their father's looks!

And the puppy looks as though he's lived there all his life, too!

I think you all are about to have the happiest Christmas evah!


:toast: :bounce: :bounce: :toast:

[Redstone]

7. Thanks, Peg. Notice how the older guy is red like me, and the little guy has olive-

colored skin, like Mrs R does?

Good gene mixing we have here. And a good family overall. I'm a happy son of a bitch tonight.

Redstone

[CaliforniaPeggy]

10. Yes, the skin tones are very clear to see.........

You all are waaay overdue for some real cheer, methinks.......

Enjoy your happy time...... :hug:

[Redstone]

11. Mrs R told me tonight that she feels that the family is complete now, and that

she's very happy (the kitten was following her all over the house).

I enjoyed hearing that.

Redstone

[YellowRubberDuckie]

3. What a lovely family you have there, Redstone!

Congrats on the new addition!

[NC_Nurse]

4. What a cute bunch!

They all look very content. I'm happy for you.:-)

[Redstone]

6. Like I said, it's been a good day. Not much pain for me, either. Maybe there IS some

kind of Christmas Miracle or something.

Redstone

[CTyankee]

17. Nice to see you. I just answered your pm!

Glad to have your opinion!

Good luck with your new kitty...

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

9. Good-looking family!

When we got Morrissey he took over the house - not a bit afraid of Simba and Monty, who hissed their heads off at him. Looks like Marcie will do the same. Congratulations on your new addition!

[Flaxbee]

12. excellent addition!

Marcella looks like my Ivan - tuxedos are darling cats, and for some reason tend to be very affectionate and family-oriented. Glad you all added a cat to the family. Gorgeous sons, too! Your youngest really looks like Mrs. R...even similar smiles.

[Redstone]

15. Yes, he does look like his Mama. Mrs R doesn't like me saying that, but I tell her

hey, I like looking at you, so why would I object to having a kid who looks like you?

Notice how the Big Guy has my red skin color, and the Little Guy has Mrs R's olive skin color. Good gene mixing we have going, here.

Redstone

[Flaxbee]

42. yup - noticed the "gene distribution" in the boys...

families are fascinating to look at -- my nieces are the same way with parental features - some mom, some dad.

Lovely family you have!

[NMDemDist2]

13. dang! you're on a roll with the new pets eh? but it's good to get them

both as babies so they can be pals from the start

[Redstone]

16. That's what we figured. I don't think it'll be more than a week before one of us

wakes up to find the both of them sleeping with us.

Redstone

[Whoa_Nelly]

14. Your heart just keeps getting bigger and bigger!

Great pic! Cool story! Thanks for sharing the day :loveya:

[Redstone]

18. Let's keep that just between the two of us, OK? I have a reputation to protect,

after all.

Redstone

[Dangerously Amused]

19. Absolutely gorgeous family, all the way around. Shining happy people

...and fuzzy happy critters. A guy's gotta be just about in Heaven tonight.


Good for you. It's been a long time coming.

[Redstone]

21. That I am. Especially after hearing those words from you.

Redstone

[LynzM]

20. Now *that* was a pic worth waiting for....

You got a whole hell of a lot of "cute" going on in that picture! :)

Your younger one is going to be a heartbreaker when he gets older!

[Redstone]

23. Yes, he'll be ready. I taught him everything I know. And some things I don't.

Redstone

[Arugula Latte]

22. Oooooh! A tuxie kitten!

:loveya:

Cuteness all around in that household. Yessirree.

[Redstone]

24. They're supposed to be especially sociable. This one has been, certainly.

Redstone

[flvegan]

25. Oooh, but that kitten is going to be the boss.

Good looking bunch, there, sir. A fine addition if ever I've seen one.

[Redstone]

34. Nah, she's cool. She'll fit in where she fits in. It's family in this house.

Redstone

[SeattleGirl]

26. Welcome to the Redstone clan, little Marcella!

Wonderful picture, Redstone. I've already commented on how cute your youngest son is. May I add that your oldest son is quite handsome.

[graywarrior]

27. Beautiful people. Stunning, in fact.

[BlueIris]

28. OMG, you look exactly like I pictured you. And that kid

is really cute.

[Redstone]

30. No, m'dear, that's not me. Those are my sons. This is me:

Hope that clears things up for you. You're a peach.

Redstone

[BlueIris]

37. Heee. Actually, that photo also closely resembles my "mental picture"

of you. But those are some lovely boys you have there.

[redwitch]

29. Looks like Christmas has come early for you

Nice family you have there Mr. R!

[Redstone]

31. And I'm enjoying every second of them, you can bet on that. Thank you.

Redstone

[Bullwinkle925]

32. Congratulations on your new addition.

What a happy household!

Looks like everyone found themselves a very happy home.

[NewWaveChick1981]

33. Awww... that's fantastic, Redstone!

:loveya: Casey and Marcie will be best buddies in no time, and it looks like the clan loves them both! :hi:

[Redstone]

35. They'll neither of them have no shortage of affection. You can bet on that.

Redstone

[crim son]

36. What's next, Redstone?

Tree kangaroo?



His unbearable cuteness would fit in well with the rest of your entire family.

[Redstone]

45. Sure. Where can I get one? Trees, we got, so he'd be happy.

Redstone

[haf216]

38. Oh, everyone is so cute!

I just love tuxedo kitties! And you gave her a very Merry Christmas by adopting her. I have a felling that both Casey and Marcie are going to be very spoiled.

[momophile]

39. this is one adorable picture

congrats on the new kitten. and your younger boy is gonna be a knockout when he gets bigger! the older one already is. what a good-lookin' family!

[uppityperson]

40. What a wonderful foursome!

Congratulations on the addition, a beagle AND a tuxedo kitten. Bet they will be quite funny when they get used to each other and play together. Congratulations on all 4 of them.

[Kat45]

41. What an adorable kitty. (Cute pup too.)

And good looking kids. I didn't know you had an older son; how old is he? :hi:

[Redstone]

57. He just turned 22. He's a good kid.

Redstone

[Beausoir]

43. Whoah! Redstone...you got BIG trouble.

Those creatures are breath-takingly beautiful and I am not talking about the cat and dog.

Man, you got good genes. Oh yes you do.

And yes, the cat and dog will be fast friends before too long.

I just added a kitten to my brood of 5 young kids, 2 cats and a dog...and she has worked her way into our hearts very well.

Congrats...on yet another fur baby.

Now..STOP IT! I covet your beagle..and I covet your kitten. And I don't need any more critters.

[Redstone]

55. Nah, I got no trouble at all. They're good kids. And good critters. My heart is as full as

my house is right now, because Mrs R is happy on top of all the other good stuff.

Redstone

[SPKrazy]

44. Very Cool Redstone

your son looks very happy and you do too!

That is cool that you are taking in pets from the shelter.

:hi:

[Redstone]

48. No, that's not me. They're both my sons. See #28 above.

Redstone

[elfrangel]

46. What sweethearts!!!

I LOVE the Puppy.....


I have always wanted a Beagle. *sigh*

[Redstone]

49. So get a beagle. You won't be sorry you did. The housetraining can be a challenge, because

they're kind of "ADD dogs," but they're great pooches. Smart, loyal, and healthy.

Redstone

[elfrangel]

51. Would love too, but Dh has said no.

At least for the time being. We already have 2 dogs and 2 is the most I can have. lol. I will get one eventually, but I have to wait. Patience has never been one of my virtues.



Used to have them when I was a kid. My dad and I would breed them. I loved having all those pups around, sooooooo much fun. :)

[Redstone]

52. I have to agree, two pooches is enough pooches. More than that, it gets

to be unmanageable.

Redstone

[applegrove]

47. So Cute!

[LanternWaste]

50. Congrats, man!

Congrats, man!

Myself, I'm saving and saving for my pet deposit and then hitting the Pound.

One of the gilrs who works in my dept. just said you look a lot like Joey from Friends (I don't know who Joey is, or who his friends are but from the look on her face, I'm guessing it's a compliment...)

[Redstone]

53. Then tell her thank you from me. I have no idea who Joey is, though I think there is or was

a TV show called "Friends." But if she had that look, I'll take that as a compliment and express my appreciation.

Good luck on your Pound visit.

Redstone

[Shakespeare]

54. You keep the critters, and send me your son.

What an ADORABLE kiddo!!

[Redstone]

56. Which one? They're both my sons; neither one is me. You want the big one or the little one?

Redstone

[KT2000]

58. Fun family!

Love those tuxedo cats!

[jus_the_facts]

59. Damn good lookin' bunch RS....

....your boys are beautiful...can't believe how much Casey has grown already...and Marcie is a purrty girl as well...Congratulations!! :hi:

[Redstone]

62. I'd forgotten how fast the puppies grow. We see her every day, and still notice.

Redstone

[Phillycat]

60. Your elder son is hot.

Just sayin'. :shrug:

[Redstone]

63. Well, he's kind of taken, but if that changes, I'll let you know. He's a good kid.

Redstone

[Puglover]

61. Grats Redstone!

New father here too! "Rocco" came to our home via Midwest Pug Rescue on Sat. night. He is a dreamboat!

[Redstone]

64. The PUPPY! He can chew on my thumbs anytime.
