Bette (pronounced Betty) lived for 15 years and was the best cat I ever knew. Although she was partially an outdoor cat during the early part of her life, and did things like climb trees and roofs, she made the complete transition to being an indoor-only cat in her later years. She was a fan of catnip mice, IAMS wet cat food, ripping off paper with her teeth, and heat vents (as you can see in the picture). Furthermore, she tended to say “brrrrr” rather than “meow,” which was an interesting quirk of hers. Another notable quirk of Bette that people always saw was that she was a tabby manx: a stumpy manx with a very small tail. Near the end of her life, she became very cuddly with all of us. My husband Kerry and I miss her very, very much.

Flan was a man of few meows and a thousand looks. His little toe beans left large marks on our hearts.

The day we picked you up at AHS in January 2007, you were doing a photo shoot and were the headliner photo in the St. Paul Pioneer Press January 27 article on “How to Find the Perfect Pet.” For the next almost 18 year, that is exactly what you were – perfect in every way. You were always an equal opportunity kitty that gave both of us our fair share of your cuddles, head butts and lap time. We miss you getting us up in the morning and seeing us off to bed at night plus all your loving during the day. The house just is not the same without you. We love and miss you.

We all miss the love bug!
Gabby was a kind and gentle girl. She enjoyed playing and walks with her big brother, Giacomo. She also liked retrieving in lakes! Miss you Gabby!
On December 20,2023 we lost our Buddy. We will miss his kind eyes and the unconditional love he always gave us.

In loving memory of Gus. My favorite hello and hardest goodbye. Your wings were ready, but our hearts were not. Thank you for 17 years. Run free, buddy.
