Willy - you are the reason I posted the picture. You said a long time ago you wanted to see what she looked like. She isn't marked like most tortis; that is why I had a hard time finding a pix that looked like her. Of course, this was at about 7 mos - but like the picture in the obits - they always show an 89 year old lady's obit and her picture from when she was 17!

The rest of you - and you know who you are - you really ought to take this show on the road - it is much better than what is on prime time TV right now!

Sorry, I just can't help teasing the tiger, or at least a distant relation.....

But that explains why I have noticed cats wearing sunglasses, hats and trenchcoats following me around and taking nots on tiny little notepads.

Now I'm going to have to dog proof the computer -- or start ignoring your posts !!

Gigi and Marley really hate cats -- I keep telling them that its just the fur, ruining the taste !!
Mike - Mookie has a whole vocabulary - which I cannot post on this forum, since it is a family forum. I think somewhere in there is the word for dog.....

(I personally haven't met an animal I didn't like!)

Jen,

I think that Mookie needs a little engineers cap and bandana. Maybe posed with a GCOR.
Do you know what I have to go through to get her collar off and on to put license plate on it????????

The Mookie Has Landed
Posted by Mookie on Tuesday, January 27, 2004 1:47 PM
Now you have a picture of both of us! (Mine is on my profile!)

This one is when both Mookie and I were much younger (about 12 years), but she doesn't have age lines like I do!

Thanx to Tree068 for his help!
