Cat Nip Corner

Tigger is no longer with us. She left one night and never came home :-(  She's the one in the pictures that is kind of splotchy. She was really cute. Sometimes she would to get on the back of the couch and bit the top of my earlobe, just enough that I could feel it.

Squeak is the little one with the tiger stripes. When he was little I put Da Bird on a fishing poll and carpeted the metal polls in the basement and taught him to climb the poles and chase Da Bird. It was fun when he was little, but now when he goes outside he still chases Da Birds. The most memorable thing Squeak has done was to get squirted in the face by a skunk. When I let him in I didn't know he had been squirted and the whole house smelled like skunk. If you don't know this, it's more like mace when your so close to it. I washed him in Peroxide, baking soda, and dish soap. It got the bulk of it off, but I had to do it like 3 times. All that Peroxide turned his brown fur orange, but just around his head and neck so he looked funny all summer. We could smell skunk on his head for almost 2 months! I didn't try the tomato juice because of 1 line I read when this all happened, "A La Kitty"

Tuxie is the black and white kitty. He is very cute and soft. He was my first cat. He loves to go outside. In all the apartments and houses I've lived in. He will meow and meow until I let him outside. His favorite thing is for me to pet him while he eats. Sometimes it drives me a bit crazy, but he always gets his lovin'.
