Here are my two "putters." I love them dearly. Yoda (the black one) has new-found freedom. He has been an indoor cat his whole life (4 years) and I recently let him out. I figure...he would literally rather die than not go outside. Gus-Gus is the one that snuggles. They are both the sweetest things...

By the way, how can you post such large pictures? Every time I try, it says it's too big.

Hey Eddie 
Yay someone got it lol!
Katie, if you want to post bigger pics you have to have them on some kind of online album. The way I do it is a thumbnail you can click on - if you want me to tell you step by step let me know and I'll write it down
(it's easy)
Here is Sophia's Jack as he is now, he's getting even cuter!
Jane

That darn Toby!!!! LOL, just kidding it wasn't him, but I think it was his cousin...this orange tabby treed a bear...twice LOLOLOL
June 13, 2006—Perhaps not since the Cowardly Lion has an animal's appearance been so at odds with its attitude. On June 4 a black bear wandered into a West Milford, New Jersey, back yard, was confronted by a 15-pound (7-kilogram) tabby cat … and fled up a neighbor's tree. Hissing at the base of the tree, Jack the clawless cat kept the bear at bay for about 15 minutes, then ran him up another tree after an attempted escape.
Finally, Jack's owner, Donna Dickey, called the cat inside, and the timorous trespasser disappeared back into the woods.
"He doesn't want anybody in his yard," Dickey said of Jack in an interview with the Newark Star Ledger.
Unlike cats, bears aren't typically territorial, roaming instead over vast areas that would be impossible to patrol for intruders. With a habitat that includes much of North America, black bears are seen fairly often in this region of New Jersey.
Full-grown black bears weigh between 200 and 600 pounds (90 and 270 kilograms) and measure as much as 6 feet (1.8 meters) long. Their diets can include fruits, honey, insects, acorns and animals as big as moose calves—a fact apparently lost on Jack.

Toby has a new "quirk". He has a toy with an orange thing and feather on the end of a string attached to a yellow stick and when I twirl it he jumps at it or if I drag it he chases it around. That's not his "quirk"
When I have had enough I just let it go and he plays with it for a while....and then drags it and plops in right in the middle of his food dish and then eats around it, pretending to have a feast on his "kill". Luckily, it washes well

I am thoroughly enjoying all the photos and stories. Thanks again, y'all!!
Here is my Lab, Casey, again. She is prematurely very gray. She's "only" about 9 & 1/2, but she still plays like a puppy. That's a Lab for you!

She is a sweetie, even with the evil green-glowing eyes. And she knows nothing of noives. Dusty, on the other hand, my husband's border collie, is very nervous these days. He has arthritis and doesn't like to cross the linoleum in the kitchen. He'll stand at the door and cry before he skitters across it. I think we need to get him some better medicine because he's probably in pain and all we've been giving him is some glucosamine supplement.
Love and hugs,
Eddie
