Saddam Hussein. Lived up to the name.
Sadly her water and lights were turned off 2 years ago due to feline aids

I dont know how and why, but the same cat down to the minute detail of how it places her feet when lying down, is now residing in our bathroom. It showed up on our porch two years ago and demanded to stay here. Spooky!

- Impressive Russian Blue cat (I believe) Elsa.
- Nice Abysinian (I guess) Bjørn J.

Here is our King of Snow Alfi (Red Tabby pure bred Siamese cat). Unfortunately he is now gone, due to kidney failure.

BW - if it sits behind doors - waiting for you - attacks your feet and bite - it's Saddam Hussein re-incarnate.

10 years ago - people freaked when we posted pics of our pets. Now it is such a special thing.

I started getting "expert" (selfproclaimed) on the various breeds of cats after I began visiting cat shows, photographing the participating cats for the breeders :)
After Alfi passed away, Shessie (a seal tabby pointed pure Siamese) is the only cat left here. Accordingly she is getting very spoiled.

Tersn - she looks quite royal - must have an interesting personality

So many cats!

10 years ago - people freaked when we posted pics of our pets. Now it is such a special thing.

Yeah, it was soooo not cool to do that... ridiculous.

Here's our cross eyed cat, Ziggy, our friends found him in a bush when he was 5-6 weeks old.

Yes, she used to be very dominating when she enjoyed company of several other cats here. Already as a 5 months old kitten she forced our large male cat away from the food tray!

The only thing she is attacking is the food. With great passion....

Super ones.

Well every cat has a story. The oldest one of my three cats was in a animal-asylum and I wanted to take care of them. When she saw me, she ran towards me, but was so shy later on, we had to grab her. She came into the home, started to snore very very loudly (for such a small white cat). She can't really miauw, but snoring very good.  And she winks....
