Bitty : Our "Silver Dollar Tabby" female. Bitty has cost us over $4500 in vet fees. She was horribly ill with upper respiratory and intestinal infections when rescued, and only weighed 5 ounces! I weighed her in a measuring cup on a kitchen scale. What an UGLY little thing she was. We did weeks of bottle feeding, medicating, and TLC... Bitty doubled her weight during her first week with us. She has survived the initial infections, a severe intestinal obstruction, chronic ear infections, and very deformed "Female Parts" that were found when she was spayed. She turned out to be a magnificent Silver Tabby. And what a BEAUTY she is! Bitty is "Momma's Rotten Kitty" and sleeps in bed between Pat and Shelley. Bitty was born around March 1997 |

Jay : A charcoal tabby male. His littermates, Crosley and Marble are pictured below. We adopted the entire litter to help Bartok out after his brother died. We had PLANNED to adopt them out, but all three are so very sweet and affectionate that we were unable to do so. Jay now weighs 20 pounds, and is a lover kitty. He adores being picked up, and scritched, and is begging for a tummy rub in this picture. Jay was born around August 1999. |

Pandora (AKA Doodles ) : Doodles is a female calico with a heartbreaking story: Patrick was driving waaayyy out in the country, when he saw a cat on the shoulder of the road that had been run over. However, he saw movement, so stopped to see what he could do. There was an adult "Mom Cat" who was dead. The movement was her tiny 3 week old baby, who was crying, and trying to wake up Mom Cat to feed her! Poor Pat spent almost an hour walking around with the crying baby, hoping to lure out any littermates, but he never found any. He tucked Pandora (covered with blood) into his shirt to bring home. After a gentle exam, (and a bath), we found she was free from injury, just HUNGRY! We did have to bottle feed her for a few days, but she caught on to the saucer quickly. Of course, she has imprinted on Pat as her mother, which is quite amusing. We had an unplanned pregnancy, thinking Dieter was too young to "Do the Job"at 6 months old. Ooops... Click on the link for a cute pic of Doodles feeding her 2 kittens. Ziggy and Scribbles were the babies. Doodles was born in December 1999.. |

This is Austin, Dallas' brother. Same story. When we first got these two, they were so wild, that when approached, they would flatten out like wild baby animals in the grass, trying to hide. Problem is, they were on carpet... Austin has been a harder nut to crack than Dallas, but the other day, he did a few figure eights around my ankles, then threw himself on his back for a belly rub! He came to ME for a belly rub! Maybe there is still hope for this poor little guy... He was born about August 2000. |

This is Marvin. Betsy brought him to us when he was about 6 weeks old because "You don't have a gray cat"... <sigh> He's gray all right, gray fur, whiskers, nose, paw pads, etc. I believe he has some sort of gray goo inside him instead of blood. He's VERY gray! He's a sweet cat, but he's a pisser. He pees on everything! He's neutered, and we have tried everything, including Feliway, but he still pees. He was born about May 2002. |

This is Corky. Corky is a flame point Siamese and is a beautiful cat. He was rescued by our daughter Betsy. Unfortunately, he didn't work out at her house, constantly trying to get out and causing other problems. We had two older females that needed a "quiet home" and traded out with her. Now Corky is happy, and the other two cats are happy. It all worked out very well. Corky enjoys playing with the other younger cats here, and as soon as his eye has healed, we will post better photos. Right now, we are nearing the end of an 8 week long battle against a calci-virus infection of his right eye. The vet finally had to resort to suturing Corky's third eyelid shut to create sort of a natural bandage. It looks like both the eye and his vision will be saved, thanks to Dr. Gamble at Oakbrook Veterinary Clinic in Summerville. Corky was born Sept. 2004. |

Saturday night catnip party! All of our cats love a good pile of catnip. We grow our own during the Spring and Summer. And yes, I know we have a cat door in the bedroom door, but if you look at the carpet near the door, you'll see why! Please note that *ALL* of our cats, with the exception of Lilly (for medical reasons) have been neutered. They are also up to date on all of their immunizations. The vet loves us, and we love them. Special thanks to the staff at Oakbrook Veterinary Clinic in Summerville, SC 843-871-2900. Please spay/neuter your pet.
