Proud pet parent of:

Nerml the love cat and Archie, destroyer of chipmunks. Our angel cats, Orange Cat, Elektron, and Amber watch over upon us and wait at the Bridge.

How we met:

At the local Shelter, of course! Elektron was named on sight because he filled all the space available, dependent on temperature and pressure. (LOL) All our kitties have been rescues. When Orange Cat (I know, a seriously inventive name) passed away, we needed 2 cats to fill the hole left in our lives. I do kennel work at the local shelter and want to bring all my baby kitties home!

Pet likes:

Werever we have lived, we have built a cage on a 4'x8'sheet of plywood up on stilts that they can access through a cat flap. In one house, the cage was out the window on the third floor! The squirrels in the trees would chatter at the cats. They love to go in and out on their own schedule. On soft summer nights they sleep out on the shelf. In the winter we shovel the cage from inside and put up some plastic so the wind isn't so bad.
Nerml's favorite thing to do is eat lots of dry food, drink water and barf on mom's side of the bed :>)

They have a privacy fenced backyard to go out in with a catnip garden and a brick patio to soak up the sun on. In the winter we put out a shelter made from 2 windows from my cold frame propped together like a tent with a heated pad to lay on.

Pet dislikes:

Archie dosen't like dogs. One time,a friend brought his dog into the backyard and Archie was hiding in the bushes. The pup wanted to play, but Arch came at him. He puffed up to about twice his size!

Pet’s favorite spot:

The boys have several spots inside and out. Snuggled with us on the bed is the favorite spot for nighttime,and the recliners are a fave daytime spot.
Outside, the whole backyard are their favorite spots.

Pet’s favorite toy:

A battery operated cat on wheels that randomly spins a mouse on a stick. The cat is remote controlled and spins and runs across the floor.

Pet’s silliest habit:

Nerml sleeps with his tounge sticking out just a bit. He looks so funny!

Pet’s sweetest moments:

When Nerml and Archie finally decided to like each other and sleep side-by-side now.

My pet is unique because:

...when U NEAK up on him he meows
