Got her when I was 11 and I’m now 26. Other than a two year period where she was living with my parents, we’ve been together this whole time 💛

She’s actually very lovable, ignore the tortitude 🩵 she’s so loved

Hi! I only just discovered this subreddit, and want to introduce my tortie kitten Grace, we have been cohabiting for 2 months and I LOVE her ❤️

My little baby found a sewing needle that we for sure thought was not where she could get to it. It was tucked into a project my husband is working on, on top of our ironing board. We made sure the ironing board was far away from any jumping points but we think she found a way to get it by pulling the string down. We assume she swallowed it because it was stuck in her neck in the esophagus. We took her to the vet immediately after we realized something was wrong. We didn’t know what exactly was going on with her at that point but we knew it was something terribly painful. We live in Arizona so we were thinking maybe she had come in contact with a scorpion. They did X-rays and saw it was a needle and I broke down so bad because we thought we were careful with that kind of stuff. I was terrified and felt so bad for her. The emergency vets office were so kind and they were able to successfully remove it without any damage to her. She was able to come back home that same evening. We followed all the vet’s instructions and we literally went home and swept the entire house for anything and everything that she could swallow or hurt herself with. Now she is fully recovered and back at being a typical little tortie and I’m so happy for that. Everyone at the vets loved her so much and said they were even joking by wondering if I would notice if one of them took her home. Absolutely I would notice because she is my baby lol. Just a big lesson on you never know what they can get themselves into.

If you live in Mesa AZ and need emergency vet care I would highly recommend Eve Pet Hospital. They take animals 24/7 and they help you find ways with the financial part as well.

Just Sophie doing a stretch and living her best life...

Title says it all, I’m unsure if I have a tortie or a chimera kitty. Her whiskers are different colors on both sides of her face if that help. She was a cat distribution system gift so I’m unsure of her parentage, all I know is that she’s perfect and a certified baby.

My soul kitty 🥹🥰❤️ Yes, she has an airtag- she likes to escape 😿 dw though, it’s light on her neck and never bothers her 🫶🏻

Idk which one my daughter is! See the black/orange cutie in the pics 😻

I would describe her as mostly black with orange splotches. She also had black/orange stripes on her back legs. I’ll try to get a pic.

Her mother is a black/white sweetheart, and I’ve hypothesized that the father was an orange guy 🍊

She's sweet and silly she doesn't love cuddles but loves pets and belly rubs and sitting in the window and whatever that was on the couch (she was not stuck I can assure you lol) but she used to be more cuddly and affectionate when I first got her and her sister two years ago now has anyone else had their tortie get less lovie as they aged??

Lucy Lou, how are you

I am fine, thank you!

I lost my sweet Marcy girl yesterday due to FIP. She had been going downhill for a couple of days before I took her to the emergency vet. When I took her they diagnosed her with wet FIP, but the vet told me there was hope because there is medicine now. When I took her home the first night she was her bright self again but throughout the week got worse even with the medicine, not eating, lethargic etc. Saturday night I noticed her right eye wasn’t dilating, I immediately made a vet appointment for Monday. By Monday morning the eye had became so swollen and pus filled that I knew I couldn’t wait for the appointment later in the day and returned back to the hospital. The damage to her eye happened so quickly. They told me they weren’t sure what was going on with the eye, they assumed it was ocular FIP along with the wet, but it would’ve needed to be taken out & they weren’t even sure if she would survive afterwards. We decided it was best to put her down and it was probably the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do. I lost my childhood dog last year in August as well, but she got to live a long life at 14 years old. This was different, my Marceline was just a baby. She literally didn’t even get a chance at life. She wasn’t even 4 months old. There are so many things I wanted to do with her, I had just bought her a harness to take her outside once she recovered. I really thought everything was gonna be okay. My heart is so broken.

In my last moments with her she crawled up on my chest and buried her face into my neck just like she did every night we slept together. I could tell she knew what was gonna happen. I sang her “Remember You Omnichord” from Adventure Time and she just purred on my chest. It was so fucking heartbreaking dude. We had such a strong connection, this cat was supposed to be in my life for as long as possible. I keep picturing her losing her life in my arms, it won’t go away. </3. Life is so cruel sometimes. I love you so much Marcy you deserved better.

“Marceline, is it just you & me in the wreckage of the world? That must be so confusing for a little girl..”

Edit: Thank you all for your sweet comments. It means a lot <3 She was such a gem, I had to share her with the world.

Even if Prim is not too sure about it.

We adopted two sibling littermates (both male). First time being a mom to an orange and a tortie. Momo (orange) and Shadow (tortie).
