A brief moment when Jackie is not being mauled by Sadie.Our cats live outside, full-time. This was a decision we made when we moved down here as we were tired of having cat hair everywhere. This has made the cats especially love-starved, which has made them put up with behavior they normally wouldn't. Take Jackie, for instance. He used to be rather aloof. Now he'll sit there as Sadie destroys him with love. He, unfortunately, is Sadie's favorite. When she sees him, she starts yelling "Meow meow!" although it always comes out as "MAO MAO!" As you can see here, however, he doesn't seem any worse for the wear.
Gromit has had the most astonishing transformation. She used to be... well, a total bitch. Now, she's just an occasional one. She's so incredibly starved for love, she'll endure several minutes of petting before suddenly freaking out and scratching the nearest hand, which is usually Soen's. For some reason Soen has taken a liking to her, although he told me yesterday, "I used to like her all the time. Now I just like her sometimes." That's about right.
Our third cat, Dublin, hasn't changed much. He still--sensibly--doesn't like kids. He'll being sitting there, lying in the sun, and as soon as he hears Sadie he tears off into the garage, with Sadie running and yelling "MAO MAO!" after him.
This photo seems a little more illustrative of their relationship.

Sadie just loves everything that moves, has a beat, or can be eaten! I think that sums up her life! love Dee Dee
I think Sadie may be alot like a cat. Be careful if she starts coming in with dead animals. She is soooooo cute.
Everyone's cats get starved for attention once the kids come :P
How is Dublin-the-tubby getting away?
More Sadie pictures, please!
Love,
Marianne
