I put this in the Doper pic thread, but I’ve decided it would better serve the Little Softies ™ if I gave them their own thread. This picture posting stuff ain’t as easy as I thought!

Welllll…since you insist.

First, a Cuervo update: He is now 12 weeks old, will get his rabies shot today and is off ALL the antibiotics. He needs an antihistamine before vaccinactions, his first one four weeks ago gave him a reaction and a fever.

Or seven cats, anyway. “Seven (Cats) For All Mankind”\*

Name based on that of the jeans company, which says the average person owns seven pairs of jeans.

I never heard of them, but I like the idea! Ah, but to have the time and space for seven kitties…

Here are some pics of mine. The older looking white cat is (was) my cat Bean. He died of pancreatic cancer in June at the age of 17 ☹

The tiny little shit looking white cat is Geoffrey, the cat that came into my life serendipitously 1 week after Bean passed away.

The dog is Meisje. (pronounced like MAY-SHA) I have two other kitties and another dog but I haven’t got the pictures organized yet. Sorry.  
I love my babies. 😃

We have four cats right now…balances out the four dogs. 🙂

[The Bad Cat](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v733/kaereed/cats/105_0520.jpg)–he was a wedding present from friends of my husband.

[Ted](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v733/kaereed/cats/105_0543.jpg). He was bottle-fed baby; mama cat got mastitis and we had to bottle feed the four-kitten litter. Ted is the only one of the litter we kept–the other babies went to good homes. Ted loves his people.

[Sybil](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v733/kaereed/cats/105_0541.jpg)–my kitty. She was a feral kitty. I found her when she was about 5 weeks old; she’s 9 now and still hides from strangers.

[Max](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v733/kaereed/cats/101_0131.jpg)–is supposed to be my step-son’s cat. This pic is after a haircut; he’s a long-haired cat that doesn’t like to keep himself clean, so he periodically ends up being shaved.

All these kitties are so cute. It would be velllly intelllisting to have a DopeFest with kitties. We could all get those little carriages and meet at Lake Michigan with the little softies.

Or not.

You could not pay me enough to travel with my band of cats–they hate the car and are all quite vocal about it! Driving to the vet is enough of an adventure for us.

The Black one thinks she’s Queen of the Castle, the mostly white one is huge & mellow, and the blue one is dumb as a box of rocks, but funny. They’re all rescue kitties.

This isn’t my cat, it’s my parents. He was “welcoming” a “friend”.

[Toby and the Turtle](http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c370/Kaemea/turtle.jpg)

Someday _I_ will have a digicamera and I’ll be able to show pictures of my furbabies, Oscar, Emmy and Agatha (Aggie)

Everyone has beautiful kitties!
