I think some of your names are not going with the right pictures, but I
could tell who was who from your description....I think. Is the grey one
Jethro or Truman? Anyhow extremely dignified looking. Love those pics!

The gray one with crumply ears is Truman. Large buff-yellow guy who was
photographed outdoors is Jethro.

I'll have a look a the pics
later today and fix that boo-boo. My DSL line at home is running like
molasses. :(

Thanks for looking!

V.

All your kitties are handsome creatures and look as if they have a lot
of purrsonality. Poor Boots, though--he really looks as if he needs a
hug and a large portion of boiled chicken breast.

Booties can be a bit glum I'm afraid. He's also a bit conflicted - he wants
me to pet him, but just can't quite stand to be touched most of the time,
so I am guessing he was abused some time in his past.

Fortunately, Boots cheers up considerably when he's hanging with his friend
Boris. I took a really cute picture of the two of them squished into a
shoebox together - I just haven't found it yet!
