Now that I've got a few minutes to sit here and post, I must say what a unique pleasure it was to not only meet Thatch, but to have DR Elmore tell me to get the camera ready, which I did on the elevator (which thankfully took me all the way up to the third floor without a hiccup). I was holding it up aiming it as I quietly walked in the door. Just amazing. I couldn't believe what I was seeing.
And he is something special, just like Annabelle is. I knew to expect an orange kitty because of similarity to Sir Rivington. He's also got a lot of white on his bottom side, and special nose markings. But seeing him, and his small size, and his movements, just brings out his unique little personality. These are two very special cats.
