A silly place filled with caffeine induced ramblings of this person named KarmaGirl....or something.
Published on July 12, 2006 By KarmaGirl In Misc

This is a picture of my daughter holding an Ugly kitty.  She is a 3+ month old kitten that has lived in a pet store (in a cage) for over a month.  She looks at me each time I go in to buy dog food.  I always think "poor ugly kitty, nobody buys you".

Now, she's a really sweet kitty.  She's the first one to go to the side of the cage when somebody walks buy.  She purrs really loud at the slightest bit of attention.  But, she's ugly.  She's small and skinny.  Her coloration can be described as "splotches".  She's about every color of fur you can think of randomly splotched all over.

Being the sucker I am, I bought her yesterday and brought her home. 

I figured the universe was telling me that the cat was supposed to be with me (at least that is what I told my husband) since she was there for so long.  I gave my daughter the choice of three names for the kitty: Ugly, Karma or Stan.  Not a surprise, she chose Karma.

So, I now have my first cat: Ugly kitty Karma.

Just like my wife!  How do you think we got 7?  But I think all of ours are lovely!  IN their own way.

Glad you rescued that poor kitty.

You are certifiably insane. And that's all I have to say about that.

Haha, that was sweet of you! Your daughter is cute...and the kitty too!

Cats are so cool. A local one adopted us when we moved here...and I really like having her around.

Enjoy!

Yeah...well...I doubt anyone will dispute that.

It's funny, my Mom said I was insane to get a cat, but guess who was holding her this morning saying how the cat will "grow on" my Dad who hates cats?

I've had lizards, rodents and dogs, I figured it was about time to get a cat

Ugly animals are the best. And the reason why is one that we should easily understand as humans. When you've experienced much rejection, you tend to be fiercely loyal to those who accept you as you are.

But I agree with LW. For a cat, she's not that ugly. But remember, she's still a CAT!

She's adorable! She looks like a wild cat! Post more pics so we can see her head on I am so proud of you for getting a cat! They are awesome pets as you will soon find out. If you can handle all those dogs, one cat will be a piece of cake.

Yeah, I sat with her for over 1/2 hour last night.  All she wanted to do was snuggle up and snooze a little.  She seems to be pretty happy that she has room to stretch out.

one cat will be a piece of cake.

Yeah, my husband said that cats are a lot easier to care for than dogs.  Of course, as my Dad has said, cats just secretly want to kill you in your sleep and eat your face....so there really is a big difference between cats and dogs.

Aww, you're so sweet.

And your daughter is a little beauty!

So that is why our latest keeps biting our noses as we sleep.....

I am so happy for you! Our youngest cat is a tortoiseshell also (a calico with a black background instead of white) and we've been told that she's ugly, too. I think she is absolutely beautiful, and she is very loving. You have found a wonderful addition to your family--Good luck!

I think she's really cute! My hubby and I used to have a cat almost the same color and we always liked how she had kinda a feral look about her like she was wearing camo.

I think she is a pretty cat and will be a much loved member of the family. Godd for you for buying her!

She looks like she wants to play with her tail?

She looks like she's going to grow up to be a beautiful cat.
