Calypso Cat

I realized that I haven't yet posted any photos of the wonderful new kitty that joined our household last November after our beloved Miss Muffin left us. So here are a few shots of the riduculously-adorable and sometimes-crazy Calypso:


She's a big fan of any type of box or container - this happens to be our paper recycling box in the office, but she's just as ready to jump into the laundry bin.

Yeah, she's a stretchy cat... It's amazing how long she can be when she sprawls out in such an unladylike manner!


She's also a very snuggly cat, both with us and with the black-and-white friends that provide her camouflage on the bed. We love our new kitty! She was definitely the right choice for us, so she knew what she was doing when she purred and licked me at the shelter to convince me to take her home. :-)

Frickin' cats! :)

Hope you are well, other than still being a cat lover. Baseball.... Oh, how I miss baseball. SLO is cool, great, chill, relaxing; but dear lord, how I miss going to Oakland on a whim to just see the A's play.
