Since I downloaded Picasa, I have been playing around with the program. This collage of our cats is one of the things you can do with it. These are our 'inside babies'... minus the 2 on the bottom (left and right) who passed out of our lives in the last 2 years. Molly (center Tortie) is now the Matriarch at 19 (that's about 93 in people years). The 3 black and whites are siblings (8 yrs), Rose showed up and stayed in 2001 (think she was about 7 then... so she's getting old also), and Ghost was abandoned at our back door by her mom at about 4 wks (she is 5 now and has genetic kidney probs - was not supposed to live past her first year).
They are all sweet lovable cats. Jack (upper center), by far, has the biggest heart... loves everybody and everything - never hisses - will clean any other cat or person around - will let any other cat or person lie by him - loves strangers - even kids, and 'talks' to us like he really knows what he's saying...
The others have their own idiosyncrasies; Molly (center Tortie) is sweet, but pissy at times, Rose (white calico) is wacko, but getting better with age, Julie (small black and white in middle left) is a strange one - lovable and sweet, but only when she's in the mood, Tux (black and white in middle right) has attitude and is a total mama's boy, and lastly Ghost (grey Burmese at top right) is a sweetheart, but absolutely terrified of loud noises.
Well, this is my post for today. Nothing terribly exciting, but a general update on the cats that make up a big part of our lives. They say one picture is worth a thousand words... so here are my cat family photos! I will let them speak for themselves.
