As I've said...we have cats. A lot of cats....and my Wife names them so if if it's weird, it's her fault.

We have :

Whiskey
Turtle
Ozzy
Redrum { that's murder spelled backwards }
Randy Rhoades
Slim Shady
Snots
Squirrel
Ghost
Tony not Tiger { because there were 2 that looked exactly alike and one was name Tony and one was named Tiger but Tiger disappeared }
Sybil { because she has a different personality every day }
Dracula { friggin' HUGE black cat with long fangs that hang out of his mouth }
Boxcar Willie { he shows up every few days so he's a hobo }
Shithead
Tinker
Pepe Le Pew { solid black/long haired/fluffy with a white stripe down his back. When he first wandered up I just thought he was another skunk but nope...it's a cat }

...and there's female I call Baby Mama who Will Not let us catch her so we can get her fixed, so now we have a litter of 4 who haven't been named yet.

You think it's easy catching a mostly feral cat ? Remember that scene in Rocky where he's chasing a chicken ? Yeah..that. With teeth, claws and a willingness to use them.

I buy cat food in 30lb bags.

Stay tuned for further updates.


Oh...and we have 3 dogs. Coco, Jack and Samson.

All indoor cats?
Dude ... the litter boxes .... yikes!

Oh, not no, but HELL NO. All outside except for 2.
Strays that wander up. During the Winter I fix up houses for them but during the Summer they just roam.

Over the years:
Eric
Tigger
Gizmo
Merlin
Limpet
Willow
Muffett
Jones
And now - Carl.

All either rescue Cats or strays that just turned up.


Carl was a rescue cat described as "Would suit living on a farm".

I think what they should have said was "Completely Feral".

My first cat was when I was about 6 and we named it Hoppity because it hopped after bugs a lot.
Then we had Frisky around 10 years old or so.
Then Abigale Adams (it was Americas 200th B'day year and we were being patriotic) as a teenager.

Now: Sumi and Kira.
Before: Wally.
The first: Pussy Cat (not very imaginative, I know)

I used to volunteer with the Human Association for this state ... with the cats not the dogs ... and I once adopted out a black cat to a family and the cat's name was Satan.  That was his orphan name.  The people decided to keep the name.

My 90 year old mother adopted three feral cats in a row ... named each on 'kitty'.

Carl also Answers to Mark Dennis...aka Dark Menace.

He's a Tuxedo Cat.

We renamed Merlin.  His elderly owner, who couldn't look after him, called him Sambo.

We could hardly call him in shouting "SAMBO"!  Could we?
