We affectionately call our cats "The Tigers."
Currently we have four tigers, three girls and a boy: Kitteny Thang (aka
The Baby Dog), Calliope (aka P-Pod), Scamp, and the Hep Cat (aka Hepper). 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).

A Mellow Hep Cat He appeared on our front porch about the time when Marcus' band called Hep Cat was forming (around Thanksgiving 2004). Yep - the band named themselves after our kitty. He is a very cool and affectionate cat.

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).

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

When we were packing for our Grand Canyon trip (Summer 2008) our tigers helped us. To your left you see Scamp in a bag and to your right is Hepper checking things out. |
