FIGARO DODGER
These twin brothers were abandoned as kittens 8 years ago, and we adopted them from a loving foster home. They were very shy at first and deathly afraid of dogs. I suspect they had known hunger, because they cry for a refill before their food dish is even empty.
"Happy Cat" "Slappy Cat"

Figgie and Dodger are almost identical twins, with only a few very subtle visible differences. Dodge has a smooth coat and Figgy's is coarse. Their eyes are different shades of green. Figgy has a fatter straighter tail, while Dodger's is narrower with swirl at the end. Their personalities couldn't be more different!
"Sticky Cat" "Licky Cat"
yarn
Both kitties have perfect manners now and never get into trouble. That's not to say that they weren't "house apes" when they were young! Neither cat is a picky eater, and they're both great hunters. They allow Cody to "play" mouse with them, and bring it back to him when it gets away.
"Freaky Cat" "Sneaky Cat"
yarn
Dodger is the "alpha" of our four pets and demands respect. Figaro adores "his" dog, Cody. TJ came to us with a healthy respect for cats, and keeps his distance from both of them. Our kitties love to take long walks with us on our property and they stay closer to us than the dogs. Dodger often enjoys the view from atop our shoulders.

These two beautiful "thrown-away" kitties turned out to be the best cats ever!

"Purrrin' Cat" "Meowwwin' Cat"
