Our Cats

About two weeks after we moved into our present house, we got our two cats at a garage sale. The woman taking care of them inherited them from her brother who had recently died. She had other cats and dogs already, so she couldn't keep them.

Catcher

Catcher is the older cat. He is moody and often insists on attention. Often, when we wake up in the morning, we'll find Catcher sleeping between us!

Jitterbug

Jitterbug is the younger cat. He is the definitive curious cat. He likes to be near people, but not too close.
