Posted: November 19, 2007


Phantom is a great mouse hunter who seems to catch at least one a day.  Between his hunting escapades he lives a spoiled life, often lounging on the furniture.

Phantom Adopts Us Print E-mail

Posted: September 22, 2007


For an entire winter Phantom would visit through the door window in the middle of the night with our other cat Moonshine, but disappear in a flash if he saw us.  Gradually he got tamer and decided to move in.  We could not have found a sweeter cat to join our family.

Phantom had never seen a candle before, so he sat watching it for quite awhile.  We kept a close watch so he didn't reach out and hurt himself.

Keeping cats off counters is impossible, so we have resigned ourselves to giving them a napping area at a location of our choice.

Phantom on Guard Print E-mail

Phantom survived outside on his own for the very cold winter before we took him in, so he is an excellent hunter.  He likes to postion himself in a spot where he can see rodents running along their paths.

When Phantom first arrived, he was afraid of Kira. Now they are good buddies and nap together on the sofa.

Moonshine Finishing Drink Print E-mail
Posted: September 22, 2007

We have to be careful about leaving drink glasses sitting around since Moonshine likes to dip his paw in for a taste.  Here he is reaching to the bottom of the glass to get the last of a blueberry smoothie.

Moonshine a Bit Dusty Print E-mail
Posted: September 22, 2007

Our older cat Moonshine loves to stick his head in bags.  In this case it was an empty nutritional yeast bag.  He happily groomed it all off and wanted more.
