Cats:
Brandy-Semi long haired white cat with orange patches. He woke me for elementary school on the week days & slept in on the weekends. I never knew how he figured
that out. My mother surprised me one day & gave him away.
Sr. Lancelot-gorgeous long haired grey, lightly stripped with white eye liner around the eyes. I think my mother took him for a ride, where to I don’t know.
Ulysses-An ugly crazy kitten Keith presented me with for my first apartment. He fell off a pile of laundry in Keith’s arms & broke his leg. Once that healed he escaped & I never saw him again.
Gaia-After Ulysses I swore I was jinxed & was giving up cats. Then Gaia begged me to take her home. She a beautiful long haired tuxedo cat who turned out to be perfect, not a personality flaw in her. She kept her claws in when playing, was sweet good & kind to all other cats & dogs. Ok, she had one flaw, the birds she occasionally brought home.
Maria-Gaia’s smart, devoted mainly to me, short haired black kitten
Sinbad- Gaia’s brown stripped, slightly dumb kitten we had to put to sleep at 2 due to constant urinary blockages.
My Sin-After Sinbad died My Sin, short haired tuxedo cat, walked into our apartment & never left. She & Maria never got along well. This is the cat that watched over our babies. Lived longer than any of our other cats, to the ripe old age of 17.
Bosco-Short haired tortie & white, devoted to the dogs
Knudson-Long haired white & buff colored hair-smartest cat we have known. He was obsessed with food, opened doors & cabinets.
Bogie & Bacall, I wanted Bogie, Craig wanted Bacall so I had to take them both. Long haired grey with white lined eyes (my favorite look) part Main Coon.
Bacall-the only other cat Bosco ever liked. I called her sweetness cuz that is what she was. When she wanted to be pet she was extremely vocal about the fact.
Bogie slept in my arms or between us on the bed. Of the last four I think he was everyone’s favorite. He would flop on his back for belly rubs.
Every single one of these cats came when called.
