Big Cat and Little Cat (April 1976 - 1991)

A pair of pedigree Siamese, whom we never found a good set of names for before the labels stuck. Half brothers, born a week apart, they had very different characters. Little Cat (little only in comparison) was a rover, often spending a week or more away from home at a time in the summer, living off the land, and quite capable of bringing home full grown rabbits, still squealing. His older half brother was a stay-at-home, who moped during these absences. Unsurprisingly, when Little Cat died, Big Cat went into a decline, and followed him shortly after.
