Or is my little freak a cow cat anyway?

This weekend is the 11th anniversary of the day I met my #1 sweet boy favoritest tuxedo cat, Tilikum, aka Tilly. He was delivered to the shelter I was volunteering at, and was estimated to be about ten days old. Since it was Easter weekend, there were no other volunteers available who could take him home for the weekend, and I offered to take him, despite never having fostered and never having taken care of a kitten that young. What was supposed to be a temporary solution became permanent, because we became too bonded.

He still sleeps either on my head or spooned in with me under the blankets almost every night. He still carries about the stuffed cow I put in his crate on the very first night that I had him (and luckily I had two others exactly like it, so he's got his own herd of cows). He still would crawl into a dunkin donuts bag if he could fit. I can't imagine the last 11 years without him, and I can only hope I have many more years with him to come.

I got him when he was around 7 weeks. Ive been told he's a tuxedo but I'm not entirely sure after seeing photos of tuxedo cats.

Approximately 7 months now

So this is Quigly Declan (from down under the deck) showed up three years ago from under our deck.

I've always called her a tuxedo but I think she has too much white.

Many treats were required in exchange for his participation in this affront to his dignity.

that's just my baby kitty 😺

thumpa, thumpa, thumpa

She’s 3 months old and very curious but I think she’d end up committing suicide by window 😭

Happy Easter everyone! 🐱🐰
