Dan's Cats - Lil Abner & Daisy Mae
Click on the pictures to expand them

 

 
Daisy Mae and Lil' Abner. I adopted them in November, 2006. They have taken to their new home so well. They are, IMHO, the perfect cats. As a matter of fact, they are not cats. They act like dogs! Except, they use a cat box...

 

 
Daisy, a couple of days after I adopted her and Abner in November, 2006.

 
 Abner, the same day


Abner, contemplating...


and gulp! This is a cat bed that was designed and made by their foster Mom, Julie.


And a little while later, they switched positions. Yes, I kept my camera handy at all times when I first brought them home. And I'm glad I did!

 

 

Shots from a few months later. I made the mistake of spoiling them rotten with food. Dry food, wet food. I even cooked fish and chicken gizzards and hearts as a treat. By product? Daisy in particular gained a lot of weight! I took them to the vet who told me they had to (Daisy in particular)  go on a diet. That meant only dry food. Boy, did they hate me when I started doing this!

 

 

And here they are, three months later on a pure dry food diet. Abner didn't change much, but Daisy's looking quite svelte! Well, for an adult cat that is...

Words can't explain!
