Gotcha!

Thanks guys. Cammie definitely has tons of tortitude!
The photos of her looking sweet and innocent were either taken by my husband or by me when she was near my husband. She absolutely worships her Dadcat.

The "I'll kill you if you touch me" look is reserved for me. Once she adopted us, she decided that Dadcat was her one and only and I am barely tolerated. All that goes out the window (of course) if Dadcat isn't home and she's scared. All of a sudden, I become acceptable. I've had cats all my life and Cammie is the only cat I've ever known to stop purring if I touch her! She's my first tortie (not sure if that has anything to do with it)

We have never heard her meow in 2 years. She squeaks. We think she must have had kittens at some point because she is very maternal and gets concerned if Halo or Pepper give a distressed meow (usually, when Pepper his beating up on Halo).

She was found at a lodge in Denali National Park. She was hanging around the laundry room and was being fed by the workers there. They believe that she was either lost or abandoned by a seasonal worker. When the lodge closed down for the winter, Cammie was left to fend for herself. To this day, she prefers people food over cat food and hates the sound of the washer and dryer.

We found out that she was an older girl when we took her to our vet. We had grown quite concerned that she didn't run and play like Halo (who was supposedly the same age). Our vet checked her teeth and eyes and estimated her to be at least 10 years old and possibly 13. Now her 20-hour a day naps made more sense. No wonder she had no interest in playing with Halo.

Cammie is a lady of many mysteries. We'll never know how many lives she led before she adopted us. And maybe, that's the way it's supposed to be. We may not have a long time together, but we'll sure have a good time.
