Rufus the Lioncat

He was mentioned in yesterday's Blip but until now I haven't managed to get a decent shot of him.

This is Rufus, the third of my unholy trinity. He's about 300 years old and still going strong. Rufus adopted me 7 years ago, after his original person left Symi. In the beginning I used to feed him outside and attempted to keep him at a distance as I didn't want another cat and because he's a big bully and my two girl cats and my Bonnie dog, were terrified of him. Determined as he is though, we were powerless to stop him he gradually moved in.

You have now been introduced to the whole family as it stands at the moment. Here in Symi, however, when you're an animal lover, you never know what fluffy ball of cuteness may find its way to your door, searching for a new home and new person, so there is the possibilty of expansion in the future........ Especially if a 'cat friendly' doggie turns up, looking to adopt somone!
