My brother with Tabby, in 1961, He (or she) really did look like Storm!

tele_mark says:
"Berbele and Tabby, 1962". Looks like Storm!

tele_mark says:
1960 -- "Berbele and un-named cat"

tele_mark says:
It was only about 35F, not too cold. The thing was, the day before it reached 70F and there was no snow!

I am truly sad to read this. He was a fine old boy. Even when expected, the loss of our furry friends is sad. My Charlie (17) died very suddenly a couple of days before Christmas. I now have a gorgeous orange tabby rescue (named Handsome) who is about 3. We are starting our journey together and I have done the same math that you have Mark. It is a life's commitment that we make when we accept a new boy into our homes.

Brrr looks like here in Bavaria. At this momemt in the early morning it is -19 celsius. I don't want to leave the house today!

doerscheln says:

Yummy!

Wonderful to find such treasures. Only a few weeks ago I was looking at 50 years old pics together with my mother and we found something like this, too. I was holding a few days old kitten in my hands when I was about 6 years old.

tele_mark says:
My sister says the cat's name was Tabby. A color pic shows he/she looked amazingly like Storm, and was very much in love with the family dachshund, Berbily.

tele_mark says:
He'll eat all the raw string-beans I shuffle over to him.

tele_mark says:
I feel so lucky to have been privileged enough to take care of him and his mother and brothers for all those years. He single-handedly changed the direction of my life, and he knew what he was doing. "Just a cat".......

tele_mark says:
I'll have to ask my sister what the cats name is. This was a year before I was born into cat slavedom.

MickeysMom says:
I am so sorry....it is almost one year since my sweet Mickey left us and still miss her every day. A good kitty is such a special gift and Floppy was a wonderful gift to you.

tele_mark says:
Just found this in an old family album I've been scanning. This is from 1962. Apparently we've been cat slaves for awhile.

tele_mark says:
String-beans on the menu tonite.

eelias says:
I'm very sorry for your loss.

Eli says:
Oh Mark, I am so, so sorry to hear these sad news....RIP dearest Floppy, I will really miss you here on Picato.
