Just three. The chubby domestic shorthair tabby (short legs, too), the long haired, black and white cat (also a BIG cat), and the red tabby Maine Coon. I haven't put a photo of her on the server for hosting yet. She's the oldest - 15, arthritis, chronic kidney insufficiency. I just had her groomed a week ago, and the groomer had to shave some of her fur - her tummy, and her hiney needed shaving. She just can't keep herself very clean anymore. Other than that, she's doing well, still seeks out attention and food.

Wow. Shanxi (the one in the fireplace yesterday) is our oldest - about 14. She's the Alpha Cat and still spry, though I watch her closely. The next two are about ten, and then they go down in age to two years. Tank is the largest - about 17 pounds and I have to give him baths. I like the Maine Coons - never had one.

This is Maia, the Maine Coon. She is in her favorite empty box which I placed underneath her favorite chair. She's very shy, and is always looking for a hidey-hole. She's bigun, about 14 pounds.
