    Lisa - they look like siblings!

    Lydia doesn't seem to have that 'holier than thou' look that our cat ALWAYS has on his face. I swear that most of the time ours looks like he'd kill us in our sleep if he could.

    Oh yes she does!- we call it her "Buddha face"- very wise and all knowing- meditative and 'holy'. She puts it on regularly.

    And lydia's color is a bit milkier thanit looks in that photo- her color really matches your kitty perfectly. Does yours have a slight rosy tinge to his belly fur like Lydia? Our Lydia has a brick colored nose- we call it her "Kool-Stop nose pad"

    GLC, I think I've found you another family member - just a bit more white on Eric than yours!

    One day, I'm going to buy a cottage in a small village and become its idiot!

    Our cat (his name is actually Kitty, original, no?) does have a rosy tinge to his belly! I never really noticed his nose color, but I'll definitely look tonight.

    Mimi - your kitty looks exactly like our neighbors cat - his name is Rocky. He's a lover...and so incredibly gorgeous.

    I'm generally a dog person, but there is a special place in my heart for grey kitties.

    Funny story. As I mentioned earlier, we have a dog door. One night, we were rudely awoken by both of our dogs barking like mad in the house. It was clear that there was something there and not just random 'I hear coyotes' barking. We both jump up and follow the smart dog to what she's trying to show us. There's a cat curled up on my husband's desk chair. We glanced at it, told the dogs to get over it and started to go back to bed (we thought it was our cat). Then the cat lifts his head and opens his gorgeous emerald green eyes. We about had a heart attack!

    The funny thing is, only the day before did our neighbor mention to my husband that she'd lost a cat a few months ago. She described this same cat to my husband and almost started crying thinking that it had been taken by the coyotes. Had she not told him that, we would have chased this cat out of our house! Instead, we closed the office door and left him there until morning. Then my husband took him next door and made our neighbors day! Now we see him around all the time (though luckily, not IN our house anymore!).

    GLC thanks for the great story. I hear about too many cats disappearing because of coyotes. I like an occasional happy ending too.

    That's hilarious, about the strange cat.

    I'm also cracking up about the cat who can't be bothered to open the dog door! lol. My black cat sits inside the dog door and waits for the dogs to open it and then slaps them on the nose. As a result, the dogs quite frequently can't tell if the cat is there so they'll sit outside and whine until we go in the kitchen and tell them it's okay to come in. Might as well not even have the dog door!
