Oh Inky

Our cat is special. I've been wondering when I would blog about my cat and I just had to do it. This is a picture of Inky at Christmastime at Nick's parents house. That is Bear that he's holding. We gave Inky the bear when he was a kitten so he could take out his agressions on Bear instead of us (he's a very complicated cat). So now Bear is his friend. He sleeps with him and he has drug Bear to our front step (from the backyard) so he could sleep with Bear on the steps.
So anyways, Nick and I were taking a walk last night - it was so beautiful outside! We walk around the neigherborhood into other subdivisions - it takes about 20-30 minutes to walk it. About 1/2 through the walk, we see a cat perched on a post outside of a house (mind you, it was dark out). I said "Oh pretty kitty! Hi kitty! You have a tag like Inky. You have spots like our cat. I think you are our cat. You are our cat. Sigh". Nick scooped him up and carried him all the way home. I think everyone in the neighborhood knows Inky. He has lost 2 break-away collars - both returned by different neighbors. Oh Inky - and here I thought you were just a cat. Nope, you are OUR very special cat.
