Who couldn't be happy looking at these adorable faces?

Vanderbilt is 18 years-old. She was born in San Antonio, hopped around the globe, and finally returned to her native Texas roots. She's an ornery little critter at times, but what can I say? I'm a human slave and I just love and adore her with all my heart, spoling her rotten. I have had people, including a 4 year-old girl, tell me that they wish they could be Vanderbilt or come back reincarnated as her.

I lost my beloved soul cat (17) this past April. After a while Vanderbilt began to mope, so with great trepidation, we adopted a cat to act as a playmate. Vladimir (formerly Snoops and Twinkie) is 6, slightly overweight and declawed. (See that scratch on his nose? Vanderbilt still rules the house.) He is the uiltimate snugglebunny. I can't believe anyone would ever give him up. He was at the pound for three months, including a brief stint with a foster family while undergoing worm treatment. He probably would have been put to sleep a few days after we adopted him, as the shelter was overrun with kittens shortly following his adoption.
