Mother didn't like cats so I never had one until I was married. When we got back from our honeymoon we visited friends who had a mother cat with a litter. We were asked if we would pick out one. My friend said that the little tuxedo male was the smartest so we took him.

He was so little and loved to suck on my flannel shirt sleeve. He grew to be a fine cat and when we moved to Alaska we took him and our dog with us. I named him Blitzkrieg...which means lightning warfare. The two of the got along so well and never fought. They even slept together. Also because he had a white streak on his forehead that looked like a lightning bolt and he was fiesty. He made a fine pet who we had for about three years even after our first baby was born. We have had several kitties since then and presently have four, but I will always remember Blitz. That was over 40 years ago. Sniff. :sigh:

I remember them all.

Before I was born my parents had a dachshund named Maggie that lived until the Orkin Man poisoned her food when I was 2.

When I was 1, we got a kitten named Keeper - she is still alive and just turned 19 this August.

For my fifth birthday I got a doberman puppy that I named Simba (this is before The Lion King mind you!).

When I was seven we got a Schipperke named Bear.

When I was 12, we got a labrador terrior stray that was living under our car. I named her Madison. My parents still have her.

When I was 17 we got a kitten that I named Beija. My parents still have her as well.

Last September I adopted a Keeshond puppy that I named Lambeau. And for Valentines Day, my fiance got me two turtles I named Crush and Squirt.

That is the extent of my pets so far, but I look forward to a lifetime more of pet pleasure!!
