We aquired two more cats this year, bringing our total to three. Nigel, shown here, is a black short-haired kitten that came from a litter of strays at our marina. Taz, who won't pose for a photo, is a gray tabby that a neighbor asked us to care for when he was laid off. Taffy, our orange long-haired 13-year old, is our third. Does that make us crazy?
