Wow. Looking over the pages of posts on this subject brought back memories of the many many cats I have had the pleasure of being owned by over the years.

Boots (first family cat, that I ever recall)
Simon ( was actually a girl)
Amber
Alpha Centari ( a White Persian I rescued from a horrible fate , of being tied to the underworkings of a car)
Cosmo
Moon Unit (reference to Frank Zappa's daughter)
Carrie (yes, I am a Stephen King fan)
Cujo ( so named because she loved to help me do dishes and was forever coming up covered in suds)
Oreo ( a foster care situation while he was healing)
Shadow ( another foster Child)
Pip and Squeak ( two little ones, brother and sister, that I took in as a Foster care situation , while they gained needed weight and much needed vet visits. )
Gizmo
Salem
Junior
