Yeah, I know what you mean about the weight. Our oldest cat, Darth

Vader, was about 20 pounds when we left Oregon. Now, I swear he looks

like he's lost weight. I think it's because it doesn't rain here as

much so he spends most of his time outdoors (we do live on 5 acres

completely surrounded by bean and corn fields). I really think he's

getting a lot more exercise and he follows me when I take Winnie (our

dog) for a walk. Sometimes I see him running and being frisky which is

pretty new, too. I think leaving Oregon was good for him as well as

for us.

 

Our cats names from oldest to youngest:

Darth Vader (big and black)

Tazzy (short for Tasmanian)

Sweetie Pie (only has half a tail & is very petite)

Pumpkin (found him the day my mom died)

Corney (found her in the corn fields)

Mr. B (unneutered male who adopted us, but now neutered)

Baby Kitty (our most recent, about 12-15 wks old)

 

James says we are becoming crazy people....i.e. crazy people have tons

of cats. But I just say that I'm keeping up with my sister, who has 7

dogs! LOL

Hey, that's wonderful! Mine are friskier now with the weight loss too.

I'm sure Darth loves those bean & corn fields!

It's nice to see creative names! :-) I have Chloe & Zoe, but they had

their names before I got them and I didn't want to change them; I

thought it was enough they were leaving NY state for DC!

they run in and out all over.

cool!

la, la, Little bunny...

[Guest guest]

That is correct as in little bunny foo foo. When we got the rabbit its name

was oreo it just didn't look like an oreo to us. My husband suggested

playboy which my daughter rejected as it is her bunny.

 

Hoppy and Dino are from the Flintsones. and Fido just because it is not a

usual cat name.
