BERNARD'S TURN FOR A PHOTO OP
This is Bernard, one of our two inside cats. He's a Seal Point Snow Shoe. As a kitten, the family we sold him to discovered after taking him to the vet that he had a heart murmer, and didn't want to risk taking him, so we let them pick another from the same litter and we kept him. We named him Christian Bernard after the famous heart surgeon, hoping that would be a positive step towards his healing and future good health. Well a year later, there was no sign of his heart murmer! Bernard is loved and cherished by us all...not to mention spoiled rotten! Bernard's very good at mental telepathy! He'll just stare at you until he gets what he wants without uttering a sound!
Sometimes I think he thinks he's human!
Then there's other times he slips and lets you know he really is a cat! See the fly he's going after in my kitchen window? He's very curious.
If there's a ladder in the house, he will climb it just because it's there. This particular climb is on a 17' ladder, helping to decorate our Christmas tree. Coming down is quite another story!
He also likes to help cook!
He'll even pose nicely when he feels like it.

WHAT WILL SHE GET INTO NEXT?
Sheba is our "little" Seal Point Snow Shoe Queen. If there is an open container, from bags to boxes, and even bowls, she'll get into them. It doesn't matter how small it may be, she'll give it her all trying to squeeze into it! She gives us no end of laughs! Honest, Sheba gets her ownself into these places!
Yeah! She's even a "Copy Cat"!
Yes, we washed it before putting the chips in!
I think she was trying out for Toy Story II! But Stinky Pete got the part!
Oh, yeah, I forgot about the sink! She loves it. It's shaped just right!
And, I saved the best for last. Yes, that's Sheba with her head in yet another bowl! We didn't give her a chance to get all the way in. You'd better always close the toilet lid at our house!
