Rene (the Queen), tiny female grey striped tabby, mom of Brynner, Georgia and Katrina, magically appeared on command the day we set out to get a female grey tabby from the shelter, and fought off two big dogs in the rain to get our attention. Brynner, big male siamese, son of Rene. Rag doll cat! Georgia, the hunter female tortoiseshell calico, daughter of Rene. Katrina, white (the princess), the runt and fragile flower, daughter of Rene Cosmos, the old man (the chief), unusually sentient even for a cat. Tigris (aka Baby), tomboy female half grey tabby (top) and white (bottom), a friend gave us. Has half a tail with a hook at the end. Boo, local homeboy orange tabby male, rescued from living under grandma"s house Erin (aka Brat), rare female orange tabby, adopted us as food source when a baby and occasionally tolerates us petting her for at least 3 seconds before biting.

Georgia

Georgia
Georgia is Rene's first daughter. She is one of those cool looking tortoiseshell calicos that have many autumn-like colors scattered and woven all over and into her darker-fur body.

She likes to hunt, and is by far the best hunter of all 8 cats. She prefers to be outdoors most the time. She has a tendency to follow us if we walk somewhere such as a few doors down to the store.

One day Rykah's dad saw this squirrel at the base of the big tree, standing on its hind legs with its front paws up on the trunk, looking up into the tree and apparently "yelling at" Georgia, screaming sounds at her like it was really mad! She just sat there looking down at it like she was amused.

Although Cosmos is the alpha cat right now (Dec 2006), for some reason, he and Georgia always get snippy and slappy at food time, and he usually lets her eat first. So she must hold some rank!

She was named Georgia by PJ after the song "Georgia on my Mind".
