Cat #1 - Milo
Tue, 15 Dec 2009 6 Comments For those of you reading this who may not know me very well, perhaps you are not aware that I have 7 cats. Yep, SEVEN. I was quite happy with 5 (which is still too many) about a year and a half ago, but the last 2 appeared at my new home and I could not turn them away. So I thought I'd do a little intro of each of the 7, and include some of my favourite photos. I'll start with the first one who took over my home.
Milo is the only cat that I did not rescue. My next door neighbour at the time had a Himalayan and I fell in love with it and had to have one. I tried to find one to rescue online but had no luck. So I found a breeder about an hour away, and my boyfriend and I went to pick one out. Once arriving at the breeder's home, I realized that perhaps we were rescuing one after all. The house was insane, a bunch of kids, cats and dogs everywhere (they bred dogs too). We picked out Milo, a blue-point, although we had gone there thinking we'd pick out a seal-point but his colouring was too gorgeous to resist. So he's been with me since about 2002. He's momma's boy. He loves me to death and couldn't care less about anyone else, even my boyfriend. He is pretty small for a Himalayan, and a ball of fluff. It is really tough to get a decent photograph of him, but here are some of my favourites (see more in his Flickr set).

from one cat lover to another, milo is *adorable*. i especially like the picture of him snuggled in the bookshelf- he just looks so content...
What a big gorgeous ball of fluff he is!
Oh he’s so cute!! I’m not really a cat person, but I can admire them from a far, or in pictures! : )
I love him! The story of the breeder's house makes me feel upset :(
I am so glad he has a loving home now.
Only just noticed these intros to the kitties ~ miaow! Look forward to the rest.
