Throwback Thursday.
(The permanent residents, in alphabetical order.)
Alice Mo. She was living in the bathroom at that time, and hadn’t yet completely fallen in love with Fred.
Corbie, around 7 or 8 weeks old.
George and Gracie. They were 6 months old when we got them (in 2008), and utterly adorable. That’s George on the right.
Jake (right) and Elwood, the day they showed up on our side stoop in 2009.
Joe Bob, when he was named Moonman and came to us for a break from the cage at Petsmart. That was in 2007 (he actually went to Petsmart, was adopted and returned. We adopted him a year later.)
Pregnant Kara, 6 years ago. She was pregnant when we got her, and she had her babies the very next day. Doesn’t she look sweet and wide-eyed? Motherhood must have changed her into the skeptical, scowling Sheriff Mama she is now.
Maxi, in 2007.
Maxi, kicking Newt’s butt. She was so TINY. She’s still a small cat, but I’m always blown away when I see pictures of her from back then, and realize just how tiny she was.
Miz Poo – this will always be one of my favorite pictures of her. I think she was 4 or 5 months old, this was back in 1999.
Newt in the sun; still his favorite place to be.
Stefan, less than a year ago. The vet said that the raw spot on his shoulder could be due to allergies. It has healed up, but you can still feel scar tissue under his fur.
Baby Stinkerbelle. Her name was Maryann back then.
Sugarbutt – his name was Sad Eyes back then (I didn’t name him). He was a complete and utter mess, and I loved him from the moment I saw him.
Sweet baby Tommy – he was Barrett back then (I didn’t name him, either.) He was always the first one to climb into my lap when I sat down; he started his job as Ambassador at a very young age!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mariette is mighty possessive of her toys.
There’s not much in the way of feathers on that feather teaser anymore, but they still love playing with it.
Mariette has crushed the long-legged Cheetah into submission.
Dennis, always watching.
Angelo likes to knead against my hand. Or foot. Or leg. Or whatever’s near him.
Always. Watching.

The tuxie-doe
Sure does love that bed on top of the Room with a View
