Welcome to Pet Talk, Wolfy! What a nice pet family you have! So nice to learn all about them and about your home and your interests.
I'm Pat, and four cats have me as their live-in maid: Poppy (7-year-old Tortoiseshell), Elmer (5-year-old brown tabby with white), Bob (14-year-old solid brown tabby), and Sparkler (4-year-old orange tabby with white).
Elmer and Bob are Cerebellar Hypoplasia kitties. CH is the feline equivalent of Cerebral Palsy in humans, a neurological disorder which limits their balance and coordination abilities. They wobble around but go where they want to go.
Sparkler is also semi-disabled; she was stepped on as a kitten and her hind legs were crushed. The wonderful vet put them back together such that the legs are somewhat cockeyed, but she gets around just fine too.
Poppy is "able-bodied" and gets around as standard cats do.
And that's my little family!
All the best from Pat and the cats

I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
