I am lucky enough to be 13 cats and 1 dog old.  In order:

Iben (IBeenTruckin- apparently my parents were hippies)

Puffy (long haired, very cute)

Dollar (orange tiger stripes- we used to eat pizza together for breakfast)

Mushroom (whom I still miss every single day of my life)

Rudi (I will never forget the day we were walking her- she is the 1 dog- and my dad squeezed a tumor out of her neck.  Sadly, she didn’t die peacefully of cancer- she was run over by a 100 year old woman who should never have been behind the wheel.)

Kermet (he let me dress him in a sailor suit- amazing personality)

Rupert (Barney’s twin brother who was berserk but very sweet)

Barney (there are no words)

Checkers (amazing lady who lived to be 19)

Spike (Checker’s son who was an orange and white striped boy)

Charlotte (we got her at a flower shop- she was very much a cat cat)

Tigger (my dad adopted her from his minister- she weighed like 30 lbs.  no joke.  My dad put her on a diet and she lost half her body size.)

Oscar (very people-oriented.  He loves attention and he gives hugs.)

Clara (quite shy but she likes us.  She is quickly acclimating to our home.)
