No blog is complete without some cats!<\/strong>\u00a0 6 cats currently with with my wife and I. \u00a0Zephyr here ties for second-oldest.<\/p>\n

Zephyr and her sister Hurricane (featured in the next cat post) were born in coastal Mississippi in the spring of 2007. \u00a0The same person who had rescued Spitfire<\/a> (and many others) from the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina continued to do rescue work. \u00a0Zephyr and her sister traveled in the (pressurized) cargo hold of a plane to Boston.<\/p>\n

\"Zephyr<\/a>Zephyr was always a very serious kitten: \u00a0you really could tell that her “playing” was practicing hunting! \u00a0She got bored with most toys, preferring the live target of her sister. \u00a0She also liked to climb.<\/p>\n

Zephyr claimed alpha cat status by the time she was 3 years old, and would’ve done so sooner had she not been slightly too ambitious while a teenager and been put in her place. \u00a0She continues to be serious, patrols the house, and gets furious when she spots an unknown cat on the deck.<\/p>\n

Zephyr also claims the living room table as hers. \u00a0She gets annoyed when guests use it, and takes it as a particular insult if they pet her when she jumps up there to intimidate them away from her territory.<\/p>\n

On the lighter side, Zephyr enjoys being admired (but usually not picked up), and getting her back rubbed. \u00a0She’s also good friends with Spitfire.<\/p>\n
