We have two cats one called Jezebell, is White and Black, who is about 16 we have to guess as she is a rescue cat who we got in 2006. She has made such a diffrence to our lives. We were both working at the time that we got her and she would be a happy face there to great us when we got in. But I think it was more a case of 'aww your home now feed me'!
She has also been a good indicator to me collapsing or having a migraine. She would sit on me or next to me and would not leave me alone for about six hours or so before I would have a migraine or collapse. She has since stopped doing this once my pacemaker was implanted and I only get migraines once in a blue moon now. But she was never my cat, she was always my husbands cat. She likes him more than anyone else.
Our new addition is a little kitten called Baskerville, is Black but in sun light you can see spots and stripes, we do know how old he is as he was born at the rescue center that we got him from.

He was born on the 22nd May 2012 so he is now almost 7 months old. I think he likes me the most as he is always sitting on me and trying to lick me and I can do almost anything to him. We got him the month before I went in for my pacemaker operation.
I think he would prefer to be an indoor cat as the outside world is very scarry in his eyes. He does this very funny backwards walk when the wind blows. But I do make him go out every day as long as it is not raining.
He acts like a baby, I can cradle him in my arms all the while he is purring his head off. My husband calls him my baby replacement! I think he could be right there! But he did name him, he was called Tumbles when we first had him.
My husband said that was an ok name for a kitten but not for a cat.
Baskerville was the name and on his collar he has a bone shaped name tag. We thought that was quite appt as he is named after 'The Hound of the Baskervilles' and we also live at number 221 so very Sherlock Holmes. My husband names the cats as he says to me 'you got to name the children so I get to name the cats'
Not sure what will happen next but there will always be a home for a rescue cat or kitten here.
