Felines. *sigh*
This is Baby. His full name, as given to him by then 3 year old Harley , is Black Baby Kitty. We often laugh about how retarded he is, since he puts up with a ton of abuse from the little ones before he even growls or lashes out (rarely even with claws out). There are several other reasons, but he is one of the best cats I have ever seen.
Baby is the senior feline member of the house. There is Stella Tinkerbell and Dumbass. Dumbass is Stella's middle child. If I can get Stella and Dumbass to sit still, I will post pics later. Dumbass's 'real' name is Susuki - at least that is what Harley tells me. I call him Dumbass anyway, because that name fits better. Trust me.
When Harley and Baby were both little, she used to carry Baby by his head, neck or tail, like each was just a convenient carrying handle. He used to purr when she did that. Most people swore it was only that the lack of oxygen caused dain bramage and he didn't know any better anymore.
The scary thing is that out of all the males in this house, I think Baby is the most normal.
Comments
I love Black Baby Kitty. That's a great photo. It captures his sphinx-likeness and ennui. Besides, I just had to post a comment to your blog. I know how you feel. I'd like more interaction on my blog. But the hits are good, so that's something. Keep on blogging (and knitting. Karen
