Grandchildren:

A new picture of my granddaughter (27 months) building with blocks.  OK, wood, but give her time.

An old  picture of my son, Ted, and his daughter, Hazel (17 months old).  They live in Seattle, WA, USA, which is "geek heaven".

My two new grandaughters, about 5 months old.

Joanna and Emily, 6 months old

 

Cats:

After I got home from the CVA meeting in late October, I decided to get some cats.  My two elderly cats died during the summer.  I decided to adopt some younger cats, because the loss of six cats in six years was just too hard.  So I got three cats from Caring for Creatures, a local no-kill animal shelter.  I will add pictures to this page soon, but they are still adjusting to their new home.

Apollo:  He is an altered male about 9 years old.  A large (17 lbs or 7¾ kg), grey tabby -- no orange in his coloring.  As a boss-cat, he had not been easy to place in a new home.  Since my home was "cat free", I had no problem.  With Apollo I got two other cats from the same shelter room -- cats that had a "working relationship" with Apollo.  Apollo goes outside now.

Tory:  She is a neutered female about 4½ years old.  She is a typical Russian silver gray (about 15 lbs or 6¾ kg); she is smoke grey, with very faint, residual markings.

Danson:  He was born at Caring for Creatures 3½ years ago.  He is an altered male, black and white coloring -- sort of like a panda.  He has a bobtail and very soft, thick fur.  That makes him a Japanese bobtail cat.  About 15 lbs or 6¾ kg.  Danson knows his name.
