We affectionately call our cats "The Tigers."
Currently we have three female tigers: Kitteny Thang (aka
The Baby Dog), Calliope (aka P-Pod), and Scamp. The images on this page are thumbnail images.

have pics of tigers we have known and
loved (yes, we are nuts about our cats!). |

Kitteny Thang on the Kitteny Mat
Thanks to her very loud mew we found her when she was a
stray kitten in downtown Huntsville, AL (Summer 1999). We
coaxed her out of the bushes with pizza and took her home...she still has a
loud mew...Interestingly, we think Kitteny may be all or part
Maine Coon. She
is a big cat (bigger than our boy Hepper was).

Our latest edition to our cat family is
Caliope (aka P-Pod) who Dr. L. found after ushering a
Waterworks Players play one
evening in late February 2008. Of course Dr. L. took her home and a
couple of weeks later we found out she was pregnant! We kept one of
the three kittens, Scamp. Below you see Scamp and P-Pod.

three babies (early Summer 2008). Scamp is on the left. The other
two kittens were adopted by my colleague, Dr. Carl Riden.

Unfortunately P-Pod and
Kitteny do not get along very well. Here you can see P-Pod's ears back as
she encounters Kitteny Thang.

big ears - she was in her early days when this was taken however her ears are
still somewhat large).

Our
tigers like to help us pack for trips. When we were packing for our Grand
Canyon trip (Summer 2008) Scamp showed us how to fill a bag (left). When
we were packing for our Okcracoke trip (Summer 2010) Scamp and P-Pod inspected
our luggage (right). Notice that Scamp is no longer a kitten.
