Images, Cats
This page is filled with pictures of cats, ones that I had, or that my
mother had... mostly the latter. More pictures available in my Live
Journal Scrapbook,
Visual
Musings. The gallery includes some of the ones featured here and
more.
This is my cat,
Destiny. But I call her "Pooka". I have tons more of
Pooka, but for now, we'll leave it at this.
That's Galileo that you can see, and somewhere in the darkness is Destiny
as a baby, too. She's easier to spot on the negative, or when the
photo is bigger.
 
That's Tigger on the left, and Tigger and Destiny together on the right.
I didn't name them, can you tell? They were littermates, or
something... mom adopted them as a package from her niece who rescued
them.  
 
These four pictures are of my longest-lived kitty, Snowball, or as I liked
to call her, 'Noey-Kitty'. She died in 1997 when she was 20. I
wrote a poem about her dying the week I moved away to grad school.
You can find it here.
 
These kitties were from a litter of five kittens... well, originally six,
but one died. They were born in the woods. These guys in black
are Cornelius, Brutus (who died on his first birthday), and Cassius.
The other two are Affie (short for Africana), and Rhea Silvia. The four
living ones are still running around my mom's backyard.
 
These are two more of Affie all grown up.
 
 Rhea Silvia
and sibs.
 
These guys had lots of baby pictures.
This is Hannibal on the left, our patriarch of mom's backyard clan, and
Rhea.  
On the left, that Agamemnon, but we call him Aggie. And the other
one next to him in the other pic is Eurydice. They were siblings,
and from the first litter of strays born in mom's backyard.
This
is Hannibal again, together with Marcus Aurelius as a little kitty.
Nagumo was our polydactyl kitty. He was gigantic!
 
The first one is of Galileo when we first got him, and the other is when
he was a bit older. |
