The Dogs

• Bowie (RIP)
• Lenny

Alana, who came to us with that name, is one of the softed kitties we've ever petted. She has very silky fur, and a loud purr-motor when properly motivated.

• A pretty face
• As a young puffball
• The walk
• Giving us the eyes

"Beanie" was our first foster failure (i.e., he stayed here), and was bottle-raised from two-days old -- he was "Beanie Baby" sized when he came.

• As a youngster
• A favorite hangout
• Hanging in the office

"Pella" was one of two adults and several kittens left outside the local Petsmart in a pair of carriers on a frosty night. She came to stay for a while and never left!

• Surveying the latest foster kittens.
• She has a beautiful coat
• Sitting on the cat tree

Felix, who also came to us with that name, is a very unusual cat. He has Cerebellar Hyperplasia, and he often falls down and has trouble walking. It doesn't slow him down much, though, as he barrels around the house, sometimes banging into things as he goes!

• Hanging out on the old runner in the hall.
• (more pix to come)

"Dia" was saved from the local SPCA -- they don't do bottle babies; Midge and Dia bacame very attached (they still sleep together), so she stayed with us for the rest of her life.

• As a youngster
• She has clear blue eyes
• Looking pretty

"Hersch" is the cat that owned Midge.

• His face
• One of his favorite spots is up on top of the kitchen cabinet.
• Grazing in the back yard.
• Hanging with his rock buddy.
• Here's Hersch being particularly tolerant sharing his kitty perch with a baby Jaz.

"Jaz" was one of the shy kitties, and she was rarely to seen by visitors.

• A particularly cute baby picture
• A close-up of her face, showing her unusual half green, half blue right eye.
• Asleep by the window in the office.
• Perched on the bannister in the living room. Morgan is visible in the background.

"Princess" is the cat that owned Mark, and was vocal and amazingly heavy-footed considering her small stature.

• Her face
• One of her favorite spots
• When she was younger she liked to play dollhouse
• A particularly regal pose

Nebula was a very pretty cat, who almost certainly was part Rag Doll. She had pretty eyes, loved laps, and had fluffy fur that always looks unkempt, even right after being brushed!

• Her face
• In a sunbeam

Firefox is a medium-haired orange cat, and looks much like his namesake. He is a very friendly and loving kitty, and loves to be held or petted.

• In the can
• A Lapful
• Big tail
