I have no idea why, but this picture reminds me of Methuselah...probably they're both tuxedo cats, because that's where the similarity ends. I found this pic online on a funny cat website...darn, I miss my cat! His birthday's coming up in October. He's going to be 17. Pretty old for a cat, but that's not why he's named Methuselah. Funny story. We got him from the Humane Society as a kitten. Mom called up and asked if they had any tuxedo cats (i.e. black and white cats like the one in the photo) and they said yes. Colin really wanted one for some reason. i think it's because he had some weird attachment to this stuffed tuxedo cat named Buttons that Grandma gave him for his birthday one year. So, Mom and Colin get to the Humane Society (I wasn't actually there, I've just heard the story a million times)and ask about their tuxedo cat. It's not black and white, however. It's gray and white. OK. No big deal, right? Colin was happy enough about it. Well, they bring home the cat and Dad, surprised that the kitten is gray, says "Looks like the world's oldest kitten!" From which the name Methuselah stuck. I guess it wasn't all that funny, but I told it anyway.
I totally need a pic of the real Methuselah, but I can't find my SD with home pictures on it! I packed two, but I can't find the second one. What if I erased it?? I didn't really think I'd need it, I guess. You never know what you'll need for a blog. I'm so random anyway...
Love, Annabel
