Rest in peace, my little buddy.

First of all, I don't know why Jerome insists on calling me "little." Here I am a few weeks before my first birthday, when I already outweighed him by about five pounds! I think this pictures shows off my beautiful red ruff quite nicely, don't you agree?

(Jerome's note: Yeah, that and your big feet, buddy! He has these big tufts of fur that stick out between his toes, too. And a huge fluffy tail. There's a rumor going around these parts that come this summer you're gonna get "stripped." Yep, they're planning to shave you and make you look like a Poodle. Hehe!) Turns out Jerome and I are complete opposites. He's quiet and reserved... I'm a "mumbler" and talk all the time, especially to myself. He's a picky eater but I'll eat just about anything. He rarely finishes his half of a can of food, so I have to do it for him. But he's like, my bro, ya know? We get along great and love to play together. Sometimes we wash each other. I like to sit in the window and watch the birds and squirrels on the roof next door. The "loft" is a cool place to hang, too. It's a carpeted box atop a four-drawer filing cabinet right next to the cat tree and affords some real nice views.

These two pictures were taken at 3-1/2 months when I was pretty little. I was visiting Cubby in Florida before the long flight to my new home in California.

Well, we've got some real baby pictures of me and my littermates, M'Eary Jane and Cully. M'Eary Jane (a fold-ear) went to live with Peggy, who used to take care of Amber, Cubby's sister, remember? And Cully (a straight-ear like me) went to Hebrides Cattery where he was supposed to become a stud, whatever that is. Gizmo's Family Album

M'Eary Jane

Here I am atop the cat tree. Now look closely at the post that's holding up the level I'm sitting on. It used to be completely covered with carpet. Jerome and I shredded it down to the bare wood. (hehe!)	Next level down on the cat tree is this dorky swinging carpeted ring that no one else has ever used, so I decided to try it out. Yep, it's majorly dorky and I haven't played with it since.

Here I am in the "loft". I like to sleep with my chin hanging out over the edge.	Of course, I never pass up the opportunity to make myself comfortable on the humans' bed whenever I get the chance.

Now that Mom's got a digital camera (this shot was taken with it), you can expect to see new pics here on a regular basis.

I am "Toaster Dude"! Those wild and crazy humans who pay the rent recently went on a spending spree and bought a new toaster. Isn't the box just divine? I'm wondering how long they've leave it on the kitchen floor just so I can play with it.

Corona kitty! I just adore boxes, as if you couldn't tell. The funny thing is, if you saw me outside of this box, you'd wonder how all of me could possibly fit inside of it. And, no, I didn't get to drink any of the Coronas. I just looked kinda buzzed in this one.

Someone decided we needed a new bed to replace the carpeted box on top of the filing cabinet because it was getting kinda ragged. This one's especially comfortable, even if I'm a tad big for it. Sometimes Jerome likes to make me get out of it so he can use it.
