Trust me, I feel he is thinking the same thing!!
Ok, I have pictures However, I only have 1 of Carmelo and the rest are some of the other cats at our friends facility. I spend so much time with these cats, that I feel they are part of me as well I have another roll of film that needs to get developed that has more Carmelo pictures, as well as Amber and Boris. I will be taking lots more, so stay tuned. I have some surprise baby pictures at the end. I was surprised myself, because I forgot that I had taken these. I had not developed this roll of film for over 2 years. Well, since I know how everyone here LOVES baby pictures, I will save those for last.
Here is the latest of my boy Carmelo. This was about 2 weeks before his surgery. Not a very good picture, because he will not sit still when I go in with him. All he wants to do is hug me and purr...that isn't a bad thing however

These next few pictures are of Beja, a 7 year old female cougar who lives right next to Carmelo. I have fallen in love with this girl and she has really taken a liking to me. So if and when we do buy more land, when we move Carmelo back with us, this girl is going to move with us as well


Beja says something smells good.

Who is that over there?

These next few are of Montana and Kisamarie, male and female Eurasion Lynx.
This is Montana.



This is Kisamarie, Montana's girl friend She didn't want to come down for her picture. She was enjoying the sun on top of her Den box.

Ohh.. look at those precious furrys! Am waiting patiently for the baby pics, which I assume you are uploading now by your post times!!

Ok, here is Shawnee. This has got to be one of the sweetest most loving cougars I have ever met. Now, Carmelo is very loving, but since he is still a cub, he is also so very full of mischief. The last time I was with Shawnee, she had jumped into my lap, as I sat on one of her lounging platforms and she fell asleep
She looked a little grumpy here, but she wasn't. She just moved as I took the picture.




Shawnee says, come over here, let me give you a big wet cougar kiss

Ok, here are the baby pictures I promised. There are only 4, but they are oh so cute. Can anyone guess who this is??




That's all for now. More to come soon

Awww... I think it's Amber. You're pics are amazing John. They are such amazing creatures.

Baby Boris!!! Lovely.

But they're all gorgeous, John. I'm glad Carmelo is doing so well, and makes such a fuss over you.

I can just see you with a huge amount of property and a big preserve for big cats. I hope some day that that will happen for you.

Carmelo is doing much better He is eating and starting to get a little restless. So I think he will be going back out into his enclosure tomorrow. Were going to make sure we put extra bedding in his den box so he can stay nice and warm.
