I picked up Charly (named after authour Charlotte Bronte) from the shelter about 4 years ago when she was 3. She has just been the sweetest, funniest and most loving animal ever! My mother passed away last year and her last wish was for me to 'take care of Charly' who was such a comfort to her.

FEATURED CAT - SOCKS

Socks is not spoiled at all - she simply knows who's the boss. All humans must cater to her, serve her the meals in a proper way, find interesting pass times for her, and not disturb her, when she is taking a nap.

Gramr is our only male cat. He is as mellow as it gets and loves to sit at the window and soak up the sun rays. This beautiful male is 20 pounds and despite his good character, asserts his dominance when needed. Gramr is not a Russian Blue, he is an short hair American blue.

Thrud is the most sensitive cat in the bunch. Everytime one of us doesn't feel good, she approaches. After a short nap with the cat all aches are gone. She has the bad habit of nose-biting (but never hard) and gets mad if you don't wake up at your usual time.

Thrud passed away few weeks ago. She was 12 wonderful years old. We appreciate all the love she gave us.

This cat is so smart that we think she reads our books and browses on the Internet while we are gone. She was the first cat to be adopted into our family and is the most dominant. Even the big gray guy can't compete with her.
