Brie
[1993 - 2009]
Born in March 1993, Brie is my oldest and the first cat I ever got. She came to me by way of a
neighbor whose friend's cat had kittens and needed to find homes for them. Because I lived alone
at the time, my neighbor insisted I needed a cat so I reluctantly took her in (I knew
nothing about cats and considered myself a "dog person"). Brie passed over to the Rainbow
Bridge on November 13, 2009 after 16½ wonderful years. She is missed very much.

Blossom
[1993 - 2005]
I got Blossom in December 1993 when she was only 7 months old. I adopted her from the local
Humane Society and it was love at first sight! I was looking through all the cages when I noticed
this outstretched arm sticking out of her cage almost as if she was saying, "Mommy, I'm up here -
don't miss me!" So I took her home and loved her until the day she died 12 years later. She was
a quiet, gentle, kind cat and I miss her terribly.

Buddy
[1994 - 2010]
Buddy and Buster are the only cats I have that are actually related. They both came to me when
they were only 6 weeks old. One of my sister's employees had them and had to find homes for them
fast so, me being the sucker I am, I took them in. As the oldest male, Buddy was always
the "man of the house" and was very picky when it came to any kind of affection - it was always
on HIS terms. But, the older he got, the sweeter he became. Buddy left this world on June 18, 2010
and I miss him very much.

Buster
[1994 - 2005]
Buster was a long haired cat and he was nothing but a big, furry ball of love. He was more
than likely the runt of the litter as he had a lot of medical problems during the last few years of
his life. But he was absolutely the SWEETEST cat I've ever known. During our 11 years together
I never once heard him hiss. He was also very playful and content to just love and be loved. Like
Blossom, he is very much missed.

Flash
[1999 - ]
Flash came to me by way of my sister - she found him at a local
convenience store rummaging through a dumpster. He was probably
about 8 weeks old at the time but it's hard to say because he was so tiny. My sister named him
Flash because he was so hyperactive and would dart across the room so fast all you would see is
a flash of black and white fur. I call him "Flashpuppy" because of his big, puppy-dog eyes.
He is definitely the most spoiled of all the cats.

Destiny
[1999 - ]
I adopted Destiny from my sister in 2003 when she moved to Japan. Out of all the cats, Destiny is
the sweetest, most playful and least demanding cat I live with. She's extremely loving
and loves to cuddle with me while I'm watching TV. She's also obsessive about cleaning and if
she isn't cleaning herself, she's got one of the other cats pinned down and is cleaning them.
Destiny can also play fetch and her favorite toy is a long black ribbon - it's her security blanket.

Noel
[2001 - ]
Noel found us when she was about 7 months old. Her previous owners pulled up in a van on our street,
threw her out the side door and drove off. She wandered around for a couple weeks
and then, one day, showed up at my patio door as if to say, "Ok, I'm home now - may I please come
in?" I opened the door, she made herself at home and she's been here ever since. She's definitely
spoiled rotten but she's also very affectionate. She even does tricks when it's time for her to
get some attention.

Frasier
[1999 - ]
Frasier is one of the newest additions to our "family". I inherited Frasier and Freddie when a dear friend of mine
passed away in May, 2010. Frasier is entirely too sweet and likes to have conversations with people. He's a big talker
and loves to climb up on people to get attention!

Freddie
[2001 - ]
Freddie is another longhair just like his "brother" Frasier. They both came to live with me in May when their previous
owner passed away. I think I'm their third or fourth owner so I do all I can to make them feel comfortable in their
new home. Freddie is very affectionate and has gotten very attached to my boyfriend. He follows him all over the house -
they even take naps together!
