The Cats

How could I pass up an opportunity to introduce you to the predators of the household, my baby kitties. I wouldn't be complete without them.

First and foremost, this is my beloved baby girl, Jezebel. She was born in October 2002 and I found her in a vet after she was abandoned. Poor baby! She is the most amazing animal I have ever come across. She sleeps on my chest every night, sits on my shoulders when I'm on the computer and loves me SO much. She's shy around new people, and often quietly disappears into my room to take a nap when there's too many voices and feet to handle. She's my baby, and I hope I die before she does, because I don't know what I'd do without her in my life.

 

This is Elfin. He's the comic relief of the household. He's a purebred Maine Coon and acts the part. He's quite possibly the stupidest cat in the world. But in a good way. He falls off things constantly, and because of this (or perhaps in spite of it) he has developed magical springs in his legs. They also work when throwing him off the keyboard or the kitchen bench. He just springs straight back up without taking a breath. The most times in a row this has happened is about 15. He is, however, stunningly beautiful, and absolutely loves being the centre of attention, while not being a lap cat. So, when Jezebel is purring on me, he'll happily sit on the coach nearby, and while Jezebel retreats to the bedroom on party night, he'll sit in the middle of the biggest group he can find, and use his evil powers of cute to make people dangle strings at him.
