This is Justin's cat Schie who came from Justin's previous relationship and was a blood doner kitty at a vet clinic. He has type O kitty blood. Since his blood was being used for transfusions they kept him fat so there would be nutrients in his blood. This is no normal stand-offish cat. He is super friendly! Our friend Dave, who took care of the animals while Justin and I were gone to NY for Christmas 1996, said I should mention the kitty's headbutting habit. Most people have seen cats give little nudges with their heads. Schie takes it a little further because he so large if he gets a walking start he can nudge you right over!

Just when you thought that you had seen the most useless pages on the Web here is another to add to your list! Here are some pictures of my hamster Nub. Justin took these pictures using macro lens so you will notice that the depth of field is rather limited. The pictures really do not need captions. They are just pictures - but I can tell you a little about Nub. Nub was the third russian dwarf hamster I have owned. The previous two got in a scuffle and one killed the other. The murderous hamster was returned to the pet store. A day or so later (after the hysteria over the murder had passed) I bought Nub! Nub has a very short cute little tail and hence the name "Nub."
Unfortunately, Nub passed away in February. Cause of death is unknown.

This is my dad's dog, Tisha. I don't really like the name but since it is not my dog I do not have much say. The dog is VERY small so she is a perfect lap dog.
