Just a quick post; the girlfriend and I are heading back home today, but I thought I’d post a picture of the first cat I got to know: my Dad’s cat Cleopatra (‘Cleo’ for short). She’s a lovely dignified tabby that one of my Dad’s secretaries found as a stray. She had too many cats already, so my Dad agreed to take her in. It’s been a healthy and happy adoption: Cleo is about 18 years old now! She probably doesn’t have too many more years in her, but she’s still as friendly as ever: she came and sat with the girlfriend and I as soon as we arrived.
