Meet Milo!

Meow!!  Another kitty inside our home.  Cali showed up on our back deck almost exactly nine years ago, and we've loved on her since.  And now Milo has done the same thing!!  If I weren't such a softie for these sweet babes, I'd sweep 'em off the deck with a broom!  ;)

Here he is-- he's a young whipper snapper, he's kitty-box trained, he's been declawed and neutered.  Surely someone's missing him...

He's darling- he's photogenic- he's SOO ornery- he's full of personality- he's mischievous- he's quick- he's ALWAYS hungry- he drinks from our bathroom sink- he's a kisser and sometimes even gives love bites (tisk tisk)- his fur is super soft, but he sheds like a mad man- his tail is always up when he walks- he has little birthmarks on his lips- he has two favorite spots- he's a good listener- he sleeps at my feet- he's got some killer eyes- he's a self-proclaimed escape artist (which is probably how his first owners lost him!) he lays right in the middle of the kitchen floor- you can throw him over your shoulder like a sack of potatoes- he's a talker...I mean--talker! - he's great with the kids- and he's sometimes (most of the time) great with Cali...although if I'm being honest, she could totally do without him!  :)

This is how I found him- owning the joint.
This is his upstairs favorite place.  He's usually cuddled up sleeping, right in the corner of the rails.
This is his other favorite spot.  He can see everything from the back of the couch.
When Milo and Cali touch noses, she'll say, "They're marrying...Awe!"  I love that we're raising children who will learn to love animals.
