Tiger II's Two Year Anniversary

It was 2 years ago this day...had family in town staying with us for turkey day. Roy came in from outside and exclaimed that there was a cat with her kitties in our bushes.
Frank: "Shh! Holly might hear y..."
Holly: "What? What kittens?"
Frank: "Ah man...thanks a lot Roy."

It now became Holly's missions to save the kittens from their miserable lives. The wide open space, plenty of field mice, tons of fences and trees to climb, plenty of cars for them to leave their paw prints on. Cornering the kittens and chasing the little buggers didn't help...those dudes are shifty and lightning fast. Holly got tricksie and cracked open the garage door and left food. Next thing we know we have 2 kittens trapped in our garage. After a couple dozen friendly scars and some Bactine® we had 2 kittens in our home.

Originally Holly liked the white kitty, but ended up switching and keeping Tiger II. Never been a cat dude and still don't consider myself a cat dude, but Tiger II is cool. He thought he was a dog for a while, so thats how he got on my good side. Never played fetch with a cat before, but Tiger II knew if he was going to last here, he'd have to connect with me somehow.

Two years later, Tiger II is still on my good side. Go figure.
