CATS!

Keri and I both are "cat people".  My first cat was born in April of 1967, and I came along some months later.  "Polly" lived until the winter of my junior year in college!  When we moved to Portland, it wasn't too much longer until we got our first cat.  Addis Borden (an anagram for "No Dead Birds") was an indoor kitty for a long time, then became an outdoor cat after week moved into our house.  We let her out days and she always came back before dark until one day later in the summer of 1999.  Here are some nice pictures of her.

Cats sure are nice to have around.   Even with Addis gone, we knew the Humane Society always has a disturbing number of animals available for adoption so we went there to get our next two (Cirrus and Quarry).   Please support your local shelter and adopt your own pet today!
