Russel- he was a stray, very shy at first, but he is an outgoing little thing.

Laylin- was a little kitty when she first started visiting out house, i put food and water out for her and every day i would see her in the drive way until she came up to me and started rubbing on my leg, i picked her up and she started purring, so i kept her, she was just a little kit, :)

Nemo- I bought him from a pet shelter

Pretzel- I got from a kid that was going to college and couldn't keep him
