Collage of Bella

The progress of Sebastien (a rescued FIV+ cat).

Six months of Sebastien (in chronological order, but most of the photos were taken in July and September). The first photo (top left) is what he looked like when he came to my office--already quite a character. He 'cleaned up' right away and put on some weight. He is a shining example that FIV positive cats can have healthy happy lives and deserve the chance.

 

 

Meet Caramel

Caramel is one of the friendliest and playful of the campus cats. Here he is posing on a wall with the number one building of the College of Education (undergoing reconstruction) in the background. His nickname is 'Lucky'. He is also on the blog's masthead.

Caramel belongs to the Dining Hall Troop of cats (so called because they all live near the dining hall on campus). The Dining Hall Troop includes the following: Caramel (male), Orange Blossom (male), Ragi (female, Caramel's and Orange Blossom's mother), Shaun (male, he is a cousin to Caramel and Orange Blossom), and Gracie (a young female born last year, Spring 2008, daughter of Ragi). An occasional member is Bigwig, a dominant male (now neutered) who moves between two groups of cats. All of these cats, by the way, are NOW fixed--spayed or neutered, and will not be having any kittens.
