After a long day of staring at the finches, canaries and our goldfish,
Silver, Pishou, our green-eyed, pure white, short haired, domestic
household
boss, enjoys his daily nap! Pishou's best buddies are ten year old Black
(a
black Lab/Sheppard/Beagle mutt) and four and a half year old Deano
(Chihuahua-type). Pishou has had eight years of tormenting our couch,
pillows and our backs, since he enjoys pawing on our backs as though
he's
still a kitten. He also sucks on our sweaters and sometimes his own
tongue!
The instant I lie down on my stomache, there's no getting up because
he's
found himself a napping place! Pishou's been a member of our family since
he
was eight months old, and with the vitality and spunkiness that he has,
he
will be around for many more years of enjoyable torment, to come!!!
Socks cannot resist a bag or a box, even if it is too small to fit. He
tries to still look comfortable. He is the only cat I have owned (or
who has owned me) that gives you a hug in the morning when he greets you. This is my 5 year old half blue Siamese. Her daddy was a
gray tabby. She has her mother's wonderful markings, but she has her
father's figure.

Esabeau
She is very talkative, although not only with her voice.
She has an extensive tail thumping vocabulary.
Esabeau is named after the
princess in the movie Lady Hawk. I'm not at all sure I've spelled it
properly, but she doesn't mind. She loves to play pounce, especially if
she can ambush your ankles from under the bed. Esabeau also loves to
sleep on someones chest and fall asleep touching your face with her paw.
In this photo she has found a spot to catch a nap and a sunbeam at the
same time.
