Vernette's pussies

My Pussies
"Anyone who doesn't like cats is no friend of mine....." Siouxsie Sioux

My late pussy cat, Candy, who died in April '01 aged 15. She was my first cat and had the loudest purr I've ever heard and far too much energy for an elderly cat in her later years. Sadly missed R.I.P my darling.

Candy when she was in play mode. She was also known as 'Orange' (!)
Well, Budgie said on the Creatures site that all cats should have at least three names,
well Candy only had two but.... Cleo, that's another story.....

There's far too much to say about this little grey creature. She's Cleo (A.K.A 'Meister', 'Mang'-that's what her meow sounds like!,
'Chubby little f**k-wit', 'Cushion' and many others). She's the coolest, friendliest, maddest cat I've ever known.
Above is her as a kitten back in '93 and on the right, she meets Candy for the first time at a tiny 8 weeks old. The longest tongue ever maybe?!!

Now grown up and sadly without her friend Candy, Cleo still acts like a kitten except she hates havng her picture taken as you can clearly see - sour puss!!

And now introducing........ Bon Bon, born exactly one year after Candy's death in the same month and named in her honur by the French translation. She has characteristics of both Candy and Cleo and is currently as manic and mad as you could possibly imagine. Running sidewards is a current speciality. Here she is playing (what she does best ) - everywhere! and if she's not mauling the poor little monkey, a human leg or arm does the job!
