MY name is Ella and I'm from Israel, and owned by Hatul for the last 4 years (took her from a family cat litter when she was 6 weeks old), and by Peter for almost a year. I took Peter from a local pet shelter and the poor thing weighed only 3.5 kgs...now he's fat and happy and twice the size he was. :)

Peter's second name is "Damage" coz he likes jumping on tables, closets etc. and break everything which stands in his way, or even just next to him. I suspect he actually enjoys the sound of stuff breaking. Hatul is my personal baby, or rather I'm her baby, she has a very difficult dilema of deciding whether she's my mom (she cleans me up all the time) or I'm her mom (she sleeps in my arms). Either way she's happy too.

Oliver was born on April 9, 1996 at our old home in southern California. He was one of a litter of five other kittens. His mother was a stray that we found as a kitten, and a year later she had her first litter. My mother wouldn't let me keep any of the kittens, because she is allergic to cats. So my best friend, my sister, and I went to go give them away to good homes.

What my mother didn't know was that I had hidden Oliver in the garage, because he was the one that I wanted to keep. It took a while, but I pulled it off and Oliver has charmed his way into my mother's heart with his sweet and loving disposition. He quickly adjusted my mother's allergies to be immune to him and has found himself a family of loving lifelong companions!
