Them Cats...

There's something about Home Pages & Cats that just goes together. Have a Home Page? Have a Cat (or two or three?) Gotta put the two together & get those cat pictures up on the web ASAP. I actually had a poem about my cats up here before I posted cat pictures. That's because I never seemed to get around to scanning the regular photographs. But now, I have a fancy QuickTake digital camera. I have no excuses for not having pictures on these pages anymore. I can stalk my cats with the camera & take many, many, many pictures of them.

I like living with cats. Mira & Camille are sisters, born around March, 1995. I found them at the pound in May, 1995. They are Pound Kitties. It took me several months to find them. I went to pet adoption fairs, bi-weekly weekend visits to the pound, called ads in the paper, asked all my friends, etc. Finally, I found these two creatures. They had the perfect personalities: playful, curious, intelligent, etc. So I brought them home with me.
