There's a New Ginge in Town

Meet Rusty, the newest feline addition to the family. Rusty came to live with my nephew George recently when the kitty was found underneath my brother's truck in front of their house. A search of the neighborhood found no leads as to just whom was missing a tiny, orange kitty with a vertical jump that, relatively, blows Michael Jordan's out of the water. So now this little energetic orange tiger cat is there to stay, and to antagonize Eva, the twenty-year-old black matriarch feline of their household. Rusty spent Christmas day with the family at my parents' house, giving Eva a much-needed day off, where he joyously played with wrapping paper and cat toys and generally ran around a little more than Hakeem does.

Big ginge Hakeem sends a warm welcome out to you, Rusty, but says no need to drop by and introduce yourself. This is his territory.
