I love your animals! Your Pam looks like my Isis. She died in May 
I could talk about animals all day long. I'm a zoology student too! I havae a zoo at home. 2 dogs, 4 cats, 7 birds, 1 rabbit and a tortoise.
Here are my cats:
Sephiroth, aka "Sephie". Some kids caught him and were going to give him milk and let him go. He was living with his mom and sister in the storm drain. I had gone out to get something from the trunk and I overheard all this. We had been thinking about getting a cat for my husband's depressiont. I asked the kids if any of them could keep it and they couldn't so I asked if we could keep him if it was ok with my husband. I asked him and he said yes. The little boy who caught him said we could keep him if he's allowed to come by every now and then and check on him which was fine and he did come several times until he moved away. He was a sweet kid.
He used to be my cat and would sleep on me but when he turned 1, he became anti social and then when he turned 2, he started being social again and dumped me for my daughter. He goes to her when she goes to bed and stays until she falls asleep.
Here's Sephie, Sephie is 4, Rachel in the middle and Orion. Orion was found with his mom and litter mates. He's 3. Rachel was brought to us by a cop who saved her from the needle but she c/wouldn't keep her dogs separate and the dogs went berserk. So we fostered her. It's so hard to find cats a home though, you can't even give them away. After a few months, I convinced hubby to keep her
Isis is in the front. I found her literally on my doormat. She's declawed so we tried to find her owner but no one claimed her. 2 weeks later, she almost died of an asthma attack. After that vet bill, she was mine. Her declaw was most likely a home job. :shock: She was "miss cranky pants" and there was a reason for that. She only liked Gabriel and the others made a wide circle. She would always cuddle with me when I went to bed. I heard a scream and I thought it was my kiddo and I went to check on her and it was Isis on the floor. She was gasping for air and her mouth was all white. I thought at first it was mucus or something. She was dead 1 minute later. I tried to do cpr on her but nothing. I think she died from a massive asthma attack. I was thinking about getting her to the emergency vet and was about to put my shoes on but if I had left her, she would have died alone. I didn't have the money for a necropsy. I had to wait a week before picking up her ashes. We had no money. She was around 10.
Gabriel is about 8 or 9. We adopted him from PAWS. He's also declawed and was found with a feral colony. He's easy going and a real cuddle bug. He used to sleep at my feet but since Isis died, he sleep right next to me like she did. I think he misses her too. He's the only cat she liked and they would cuddle often.
Here's Gabriel on my shoulder in bed.
