Figgie

Figgie is an extremely handsome Tuxedo (or as we like to call him, a 'Holstein') cat with a wonderfully sweet and tolerant personality.  He is also the strangest creature in the family.  He loves steamed broccoli, steamed carrots, cantaloupe, water melon, yoghurt, he loves brussel sprouts, and he drools when he's happy.  He is 10-11 years old, and has considered Meggie his "person" ever since he was a gift to her for her 2nd birthday.  He is one of her very best friends and keeps her company when she's lonely.  He enjoys eating, sleeping, being petted and spending time with his family.  We think he was born around Valentine's Day, so we try to celebrate his birthday then.

Ellie

Noel is a gorgeous tortoise-shell who we found in the Orzark mountains and couldn't leave.  She considers no-one and everyone her person, but Will considers her his cat.  Ellie has a fiery temper but can be the most understanding friend nyone could ever have.  She loves being admired, eating (especially tuna), being petted, being scratched, attacking unsuspecting dangling things and sleeping.  We try to celebrate her birthday on Mother's day, but we often forget.

Polly

Polly is a stunningly beautiful tortoise-shell who is often mistaken for her adopted older sister Ellie, which she usually finds quite insulting.  Polly considers Kibby her person, mostly because Kibby's room is the quietest place in the house, and Kibby is the kid in the family who normally stays in one place the most often for the longest amount of time.  Polly was a gift to the family for Christmas one year.  She loves tuna, sleeping, lounging on any still, warm lap, giving her sister baths and being admired.
