I love seeing everyone's pets. I thought it would be nice if we all shared a little bit about our pets since we're displaying them in our avatars.

The black tabby in my avatar tonight is my cat Tino (Zachary Santino Elvis Bongiovi the Cat). My great aunt Val found him when he was just a tiny kitten on top of a well house behind her house. The only way he could have gotten there was to have been dropped by a hawk or some other predatory bird. He traveled back and forth to college with me when Colleen and I had an apartment in Alabama. I once discussed his whatness and thisness in great detail on a philosophy test. He's my oldest cat and was an "only cat" until 2000. I bet he wonders what the hell happened and why so many other cats have joined him. He puts up with the dogs better than he does the other cats.
