The Cats



Twist, the longhaired orange tabbie, is the oldest and the queen cat. She wasn't very pleased when Sunnie, the grey, black and white tabbie, and Alice the little gray and white one, moved in but after a year or so she got over it. Sunnie and Alice are sisters from the same litter and Sunnie was supposed to have been Ed's pet but chose Jason as her special person and Alice was supposed to have been Jason's pet but she decided otherwise and claimed Ed as ALL HERS but had to learn to share, though she doesn't like it. Those three were all adopted from The House of Mews, though Twist was adopted before they'd even incorporated. Last, but not least (he's certainly not least, he's the biggest of them all) there's the cat we know the least about, since we adopted him, literally, off the streets. Figaro, (who's also been registered with The House of Mews), the large black and white cat, was living in the parking lot of our complex and had adopted Ed as his own special person, racing him up the stairs on arrival home from work, to beat him to the door and get some quality time and attention before eating the food that he could have eaten at any time during the day. As we knew we'd be moving, and didn't want him to be abandoned a second time, we adopted him. The others all had hissy fits. He really enjoys looking out the windows and doors of the house and pouncing on the other cats. The other cats enjoy looking out the doors and windows too, but not being pounced on.

Now here's a very rare photo. Twist and Figaro are rarely close enough together to even be in the same camera frame, much less SHARE anything, as Twist still doesn't like or trust him one bit. But she let supper on this night overcome her distrust and joined him at the food bowl. When the camera flashed, she dashed and we haven't seen them together at the bowl since.
