    What a precious little face?? *Reminds me of Puss in Shrek 2 when he would make the big-eyes face as his secret weapon.* Too cute!

    I love his markings. And those infamous “bat” ears. Looks like his mommy said, “Okay now Dexter, Smile big for the camera!” “Good boy!”

    I’d like to have a picture of him grown-up! For Kat’s Cat.

    Oh how seriously cute!! I love the “Secret Weapon” face. Around here that look means “I didn’t do it, Mumma. It must have been The Dog.” Miss Meepsie even tried to convince me that The Dog brought the Mousie in.

    Actually I too sometimes get the feeling that something is so cute I could eat it up.

    Maybe, but he made a comment about the little tiny kitten last Friday I believe it was, that was a little off to me. Maybe he means well. Hopefully he does.

    Thank You so much danielle, I really love my Casper too. Gheeri awhile back on daily kitten said I had favoritsm about him and it’s true as he is the only one that really interacts with me. I love my other cats but Casper just seems to know me a lot better. I really liked Alice’s poem, it’s oh so true.

    What poem? I have a real bad memory I probably read it but just forgot I did. I play favorites. But it goes like this. Jake is favored because he is more people oriented and spot is favored because he just desires attention. Jake will lay on me spot wont even step on me. Go figure. He just doesn’t like walking on people.
    But I can’t get over Casper. You are a lucky one

    I saw the site advertized on Yahoo one day about a month ago it is the highlight of the day for me. I have a gallery of some of the kitties I have printed out and attached them to a stiff cardboard taped to the top of my monitor, I can look at all that cuteness even when I am playing games. I love all the comments too people that love animals are the kindest and most loving of God’s creation.

    Well the medecine he takes I think it makes him just want to sleep. He is still itching, licking a lot but I think it is a lot less. I got stuff for his water and no one is drinking it. OH Well. The hair hasn’t started growing back yet, and now you can see his wrinkles. Cute but funny.
    Thanks for asking.

    Well, that certainly answered one question–no he hasn’t grown into those wonderful ears yet. BTW, I LOVE big floppy, furry Maine Coon Cats.

    Proud Daddy–please send a picture of Zooey to either Kats Cat or Bagheera. We all love the big cats too!!

    Now about our barky friends–my sister has a Pembroke Welsh Corgi(no tail) whose ears were SO BIG when he was a pup that they named him Yoda!! Now if he just had the wisdom…what am I thinking…He’s a dog!!
