Dread Pirate Roberts
2011-
Dread Pirate Roberts was the name Krista gave to this black and white stray cat that started hanging around the house. Then she noticed he wasn't neutered, so she befriended him and took him to the vet to have his little nuggets removed. So now we have Yet Another Cat. He's slowly integrating into the group. And he almost certainly prefers the cooler indoor air to the brutal summer we've been having.

Frisco and Frankie
2010-
Frisco and Frankie came into our lives as foster kittens with ringworm. So we kept them isolated from the other cats and treated them with oral medication and a godawful sulphur dip. After curing their condition, we found out that before we took them to an adoption event we would have to dip them one more time. I said "enough of that! We're keeping them." So we got out of the fostering gig and officially adopted the guys. They love to play with each other, which is a good thing, since the other cats aren't terribly thrilled to have them around now.

Biggo
2006-
Biggo showed up on our windowsill in mid November 2006 and pretty much forced his way into our lives. He was a friendly cat, but fiercely independent and incredibly strong-willed. We think he was left behind when a neighbor moved: no one responded to our posted notices about him. So we brought him in and he's been trying to get back outside ever since.

Yum-Yum
2003-
Yum-Yum may not be a purebred Siamese (or maybe Burmese, I keep getting them mixed up), but she sure looks and acts like one. Fortunately, she doesn't have the typical Siamese yowl. She's the remaining one of the three refugees that we inherited when Krista's mom had to give them up.

Oscar
2002-
Oscar was a one year old Rescued Kitty from the Oak Hill Animal Rescue people (or something like that... forgive me if I've screwed up the name). He was pretty skittish at first, but after a couple of weeks he has made himself at home terrorizing the other cats. He's since become the terrorized one now that Biggo and Lola have moved in.
