Gus the horse and Keke the kitty make friends

[PHC1]

Always amazes me to see how animals of "different feather" can become inseparable friends. Thanks for sharing Dan.

How’s Kekie doing Dan? I showed my wife (huge cat lover) your pics and she loved the story and Gus and Kekie.

Serge.......Kekie is growing like a weed. It turns out he is a male. We couldn't tell for awhile. He's 5 lbs now. Two weeks ago Marlene had him neutered and he got his rabies shot. I don't think he even knew anything took place. Kekie likes running and playing, tries to climb trees, tries to stalk birds but he's not fast enough or stealth enough yet to catch them. He is turning into a pretty cool cat. Just looking at the size of his paws tells me he's going to be a good sized cat before he's finished growing. The vet said he thinks Kekie was born around the second week of July so that makes him nearly four months old. Every morning he loves to run in the feed room and jump on the bales of hay when Marlene feeds Gus. I will try to post a current photo or two in the next day or so.

Great story Dan, makes us smile! My wife (Galina) and I love animals. Looking forward to the new pics! Here is my Siberian rascal named Meeka. We got him soon after we got married. 15 lbs and growing.

Great story Dan

OMG, he's soooo cute. What a wondeful story, Dan.

I can only imagine how mischievous he is getting. You could rename him "Keke" after the Finnish F1 driver, Keke Rosberg. Just a thought!

After Lucky's passing in January (sniff! ), I adopted two kittens from the Dublin SPCA in mid-August: Ringo, male, who was 4 mos. old at the time, and Aga, who was 3 mos. old. Ringo is a sleek muscular male black leopard. Aga is a slender black and white "tuxedo" cat that was originally named Agnes, but she's too classy for that, so I named her Aga after the pro Czech tennis player, Aga (Agnieska) Radwanska, as Aga Cat is slender but athletic like Aga Radwanska, but also has a TON of personality.

Here's Aga when she was about 3 1/2 months old...sitting in the Giottos table top studio light box....



And that rascal Ringo getting in the act...


They've been growing up FAST....witness this photo from a week or so ago of Aga sleeping in my desk chair...


And Ringo, sitting on top of the Epson office printer. He used fit on this, but is getting too big now (BTW, he's allowed up on the ledge this printer is on, but NOT the kitchen counter in the background).


Ringo's jumping and athletic abilities are going off the charts, and he is constantly getting into mischief.

But it's wonderful having them around.

Stephen.......Aga and Ringo are lucky rescue cats to have been adopted by you. They are good looking cats that are obviously being well taken care of.

I was showing Marlene this thread last night. She is enjoying seeing everyone's cats. She told me I spelled Keke's name wrong in the thread. There is no "i" in the way she spells it as it is recorded in the vet's records. So Keke it is and has been from the beginning. My mistake to have misspell it Kekie. I now stand corrected.

Here are a few photos of Keke taken this morning. He is getting bigger by the day.


Keke hiding in the hay in the feed room. He's not fooling Gus.
