Ho Boy! Ready?
Jacko - black 17yo xtom. My soul kitty who helped me raise one daughter. He TALKS to me, mind to mind.
Janie - calico 13yo queen. My sweet-talker who went from âcloset catâ to âcountry-lovinâ girl and lost 10#!
Fox - gold tabby 14yo xtom. Dying by inches hyperthyroid. The troubled child who always wanted to be FIRST.
Doobie - Foxâs sister, 14yo champagne tabby. Loves everyone - the one who breaks the âall cats are aloofâ rule to pieces.
Dexter - gold and white 6yo xtom. Starving wild child that appeared on our porch and stayed. He is the house BULLY.
Copper - Calico Wild queen who came with the house. We think 4yo, and mother of our youngest cats 6/9/2015. Now spayed.
The kittens:
Smudge - 6mo black tabby xtom who loves to love everyone (except DexterâŠ)
Patsy - 6mo gold tabby with white face/feet. A gentle sweet girl
Pixie - 6mo FLUFFY gold tabby w/white. The runt. BIG personality in a small package!
âGuestâ cats (daughterâs cats)
Bellah - 7yo Tortie queen
FeFe - 8yo yellow tabbie queen. Stole her in near-death starving condition off a front porch. She is the âkillerâ of the family - scares the Aussies! We named her Fefe because she was anything but!
Never to be forgotten - Jezebel. Died at 9 years. Took a big piece oâ my heart with her.
Did I say DOGS?
Mimi - my bossy Chi

Past cats:
Pirou (aka Pirouette before my grandpa discovered his cat was a male, lol)
Farrah (who promptly ran away after we moved to a different house
Not many catsâŠwe are dog people, mostly.
Marcus (came from the MRFRS as âMarkâ, but it wasnât dignified enough), medium-coated gray mixed breed, 9-ish.
Sundae, one of my Jellicle cats, a female someone dumped sick at the barn and I was ONLY going to take her for a while since no one else could have a cat insideâŠyeah.
P.C. (Porch Cat), my other Jellicle cat. He was living under my front porch.
Gunpowderâblack with a tiny white bib like 99% of cats, apparently. Two weeks after I lost Jet, my big fluffy first indoor cat ever whom Iâd had since he was a tiny barn kitten, and Iâd decided I was good with only three indoor cats, I got out of my car, one of the local semi-ferals bolted out of the garage, and BEHIND me I get a âmeowâ and there is Gunpowder. Heâs called Gunpowder because it was November 5th.
Barn Cats (current only, past would take pages):
Tripod: Gray tiger. Obviously, he only has three legs. He had a bite wound that had gone septic into the bone when he turned up (we never go out and get barn cats, they just kind of happen) so he had it amputated to the shoulder. Does not stop him from punching other cats in the face.
Friday: Dilute gray tiger who was playing on the porch one Friday 13th. Mom: âYou donât live here.â Friday: âWell I do now.â
Thursday: Orange and white patches. Our old beagle found him on the side of the road as a tiny kitten on a Thursday. The Mighty Hunter. He stalks DEER.
Bow Tie: Solid black cat with a small white bib. Basically slightly slimmer Gunpowder. Low cat in the pecking order. Only Thursday sort of likes him and even he uses him as a pillow.
Mr. Seven: Longest holdout for being taken to the vet-solid black cat with a small white bib. Big hefty tomcat (not any more) who believes Tripod is going to beat him up (heâs right.) When he finally went in to the vet Dad apparently did not emphasize the âferalâ part of semi-feral enough as they politely suggested he be renamed â666â as he began snarling before anyone got near the crate, drew blood on a tech, and had to be sedated to do anything. He allegedly no longer trusts Mom and Dad. I pick him up and give him snuggles. (All the âwildâ barn cats, except Spooky, who was Jetâs mother, liked to make my parents liars because all of them acted like I was their bestest friend and would I please pick them up and cuddle them even if my parents had been insisting whichever cat it was wouldnât come near people.)
Barn Cat emeriti (most deceased, one given away): Kitty, K2, Quatro, Fuzzy, Spooky, B.C., Stranger, Jet (became a house cat), Snoopy, Tiger, Scardey Kat (given away to become a house cat), B.C., Tom
3 year old DSH - Bad Disco Kitty
1 year old DSH - Zazzles Because Heâs Zazzy!
Both found and loving life!
Moo, aka Babycat, aka Queen MooâŠmy 5 year old one eyed tabby and white BIG BOSSY girl who likes no one but me. Our yellow lab is terrified of her, with good reason. ??
Then thereâs Betty Lou. She was Betty Lou Who when I first got her (rescue from a hoarder situation)(actually she didnât have a name) but that seemed kind ofâŠlovelessâŠand she is now Betty Lou Tomato.
Or Betsy Lou, depending on the day. She is very shy and not used to being loved.
Gone but never forgotten:Rosie. My heart kitty. I still see her in my dreams and I miss her every day.
Mango - long story but sheâs a 6lb spotted tabby rescued feral who is not feral
Miles - orange classic tabby rescue who is a complete lover
Bella - calico I caught as a feral kitten on my driveway 5 yrs ago
Diesel- blk and white mackerel tabby I rescued off a busy street 10 yrs ago.
Iâll just go with my current one:
Sophie
aka Sweet Angel Kitty, Soph Unit, Kitty Cent (b/c sheâs been shot and has shrapnel)
We have Kitty, Lucky, Frederick and Lynxie. Sweety and Mittens are greatly missed.
Crash Test Dummy Cat
Kahli Ma
Ivan the Purrible
Thing Too
Cleo-leo
Fosbury Flop
Tina Turner
all of them are black and white kitties except Crash Test Dummy Cat who is a calico
Boo, female 8 years old - torbie long haired street cat
Peeka, female 4 year old - orange classic tabby short haired found in the woods cat.
Zorro, male 2 year old - jet black domestic short hair street cat.
The current trio:
Smidgen: DSH, white (except when she barges in while roommate is dying her hair; sheâs had the odd pink spotâŠ). Naked because she was a teeny little smidgen when I got her, and had a teeny little smidgen of black on her head, which disappeared as she got older.
Jesse James: DSH, tuxedo. Wears black, has a mustache and a bad attitude. Also considered naming him Earnhardt for the above reasons. Also answers to Monster and Babycat.
Oreo: DSH, tuxedo. Former barn cat who accidentally wound up in my car when I left a former BM job; came with the name for her penchant for stealing them, not because she resembles one.
Siamese named Amy Farrah Fowler who was found as a kitten at my office, along with her brother. Brother was adopted and Amy was to go to the same home, but then it was found out that the children were allergic to cats. Brother went to live with the neighbors, who love him, but they couldnât have another pet, so AFF just stayed with me.
