I have 4 cats (in addition to the two human children I have).

3 are shelter cats and one is a rescue.



This is Aslan. He's a 4 year old Maine Coon...according the the animal rescue folks we got him from.



This is Willow, she's our rescue....so to speak. We adopted her from a house with too many cats, most of them outdoors. According to the folks we took her from she's also a Maine Coon.



This is Gibson...he's 2 years old and the shelter thought he might be part Russian Blue.



And this is Padraig and he's also 2 years old. We got him at the same time as Gibson at the same Shelter. He's obviously a gray tabby..

His eyes actually glow green in the dark...not yellow like the rest of mine. It can be offputting late at night. They are green at day too..my flash is really bright on my camera.

Gibson has yellow/green eyes...and Miss Willow (whom my son calls Frazzle Dazzle)...she has brown eyes..

Padraig has green eyes I think....he's rather elusive lots of the time. He's my shy boy.

I love kitties eye's I can be quite jealous, my eyes are just boring hazel. Kitties have such pretty eyes and they have the best eye liner!!
You have pretty furbabies! How old is Willow she looks so small? That's a cute pic too. My babies love to play e-mail too!

Willow is about 4 months old now. That picture was taken a month and a half ago. She's almost twice that size now. I just can't get any recent pictures off my camera cause one of my cats chewed through my USB cable thinking it was a toy.

Thank you....it's rather funny....there are four humans and four cats....each cat has a human pet out of each of us.

Gibson is my daughter's cat...when she's home from school he's in her room till she goes to bed at night.

Padraig is my husband's cat, that cat will only lay out on my husband and will 'talk' to him.

Aslan is my cat, he's super affectionate to me...though he's friendly to everyone. He wouldn't scratch or hiss at a single on of us.

And Willow is my son's kitty. She lets him carry her around like a baby and hold her, when she won't really let anyone else do it. Though she is at times mine as well cause in the afternoons if I'm on my computer she's usually laying on my shoulder or arm...or she's right in front of my laptop.

Over the river and through the woods...
Hi and Welcome!


You have such beautiful kitties, I can't pick a favorite!

I notice you live in Front Royal. I live just in WV just outside of Cumberland, Md. A friend of mine used to live in Front Royal and the main thing I remember after a few visits is what a beautiful town it is! I actually considered moving there for a while but it didn't pan out.

Anyway, welcome and hope on in. You'll actually find quite a few people from this area, which is pretty cool!

(BTW, are you expecting anything from Hanna?)
