Our Cats
What would a personal site be
without pet photos?
Pudder (renamed from "Tammany")
is a fourteen pound Maine Coon mix. She was rescued from Hurricane
Katrina and brought to the McLean
County Humane Society in 2005. She spent a year there before we
adopted her in October of 2006,and was four years old at the time.
These photos were taken in July of 2007. Neo was seven months old when
adopted from the Humane Society in July of 2007. He was a stray. The
show starts out with Neo. Neo has a funny tail which he can hold parallel
with his back. Read more here.
