Greetings, Smokey, and congratulations on being COTD! Looks like you have another "twin" here, but you also look a great deal like our big Maine Coon mix Homer. While not having lived 18 years, his eight or so have been quite hectic, with an almost terminal gallstone in December of 2007 and recovering now from being shot through the chest by some local idiots. He also spent all his days outdoors until the shooting, but we're having to make other arrangements now since he may not have enough lung health to deal with outdoors again, time will tell. Enjoy the wild country, Smokey, and long live you for your Dad and for all to enjoy!
