Cats

I don't know if I have properly introduced the two other members of our family. They are rather small and furry creatures - our kitty children.

This is Skeeter. He is 9 years old and we got him as a tiny kitten. We rescued him after his mother abandoned him because he was sickly. I think she may have been onto something... he is a freak cat. Totally thinks he's a person.

This is Blizzard. He was a stray also. Mark got him before we were married and according to the vet they think he is about 12 years old. Poor cat - he loved being an only child before we destroyed his life by adopting Skeeter and having four kids....

Emma LOVES Skeeter! She's always "petting" him and trying to give him hugs and kisses. We have to remind her that petting is soft, what she does to the cat kind of resembles slapping...
It's a good thing Mark "baby-proofed" the cat before Patrick was born. Really - he did. He's always been so good with the kids!
