Headache

A stray dog I took in. I am very very happy to report that I was able to find her another home. She was a sweet lovable pain in the ass. Probably still is.

 Portrait of Varlet cat

Varlet

Acquired at the Renaissance Pleasure Faire. A fierce hunter. Choked to death on a mouse he killed

BOOGER!

aka. BOOGER-WOOGER, LITTLE BASTARD, CHOWDERHEAD. He was the one who, while looking me straight in the eye, peed in my lap. Twice. And survived. (although I did indeed cuss him out and confine him to the service porch for half an hour, so that he could contemplate the error of his ways.

He was one of the two greatest cats I ever had.

BUBBLES!

BUBBLES, aka, BUBBA, BUBBA-WUBBA, BITCHQUEEN - one of the two greatest cats (along with Booger) who ever lived. The worst thing she ever did to me was leave half a dead mouse lying in a pool of its own blood ... on my kitchen counter! Blech!

 

 

BUSTER

aka BUSTER-FUSTER, DUMBO. He was the sweetest little guy, but dumb as a bag of doorknobs.

Clyde Eisenhower cat

 

Clyde Eisenhower

His main claim to fame was that he peed on the sleeping bag of a friend visiting from Canada. What an odoriferous memory to take home to Simon Frasier University. Said friend was NOT pleased.

 

Her life would have been perfect if that nasty, awful big monkey animal hadn't been living in that house with the cats. Oh well. It put down all those bowls of lovely food. She liked food. She didn't mind being fat. She just minded big monkey animals. Oh well, as long as it kept on feeding her, she sort of tolerated the situation. She died peacefully one evening in the living room.

 

Blanchie du Bois

... during a particularly charming moment

Blanchie du Bois, named after a character in Streetcar Named Desire.She was a feral cat who depended upon the kindness of strangers. She ended up living indoors because a nasty neighbor wanted to send her to the pound. She loved to eat and sleep. 

BEULAH

 Her name was Beulah. She turned up at my front porch one day in a half-starved condition and with 3 absessed teeth. I thought she was a feral, but when I called her, she came over and jumped in my lap. I took her inside for a canned catfood treat. I let her back out, only to have her trying to break into my house at midnight. After that, after a trip to the vet for shots and dental work, she came to stay. She adored canned catfood and soft pillows.

She was a very sweet, grateful cat who never wanted to go back outside. I miss her.
