Hmmm, no. Cats eat Rabbits (and I don't blame them for doing so).

Here are my five bad boys (and girls!)!

All black fellow is named Soultan, he`s one very nice half-Persian, definitely best guy in the house. He`s six years old.

Grey tabby cat is named Tiger, because she looks like one! She`s the oldest cat around, at tender age of seven!

Black and white girl is five year old Goca jr. (pronounced Go-tza), after our first cat. She`s very nice and gentle, but also with enormous appetite. She`s literally getting fatter each day!

And now two of the worst...

Snow white guy is named Hannibal (four years old), after one of the most loved villains in movie history (yeah, I`m fan of Sir Anthony Hopkins). He`s like ton of weight and very large cat indeed. He`s deaf from birth, but that doesn`t stopping him being mischievous and nuts as hell!

And his sworn enemy is this young half-Siamese, named Khan (after villain from Star Trek series, played by late Ricardo Montalban, yeah, I`m Trekkie, too). He`s only ten months old, but very bad boy indeed. My only concern is to prevent Hannibal to reach Khan, because it will be bloodbath, they REALLY hate each other, and Hannibal is like five kilos ahead...

All of them were street cats, all of them found in different sections of the city.

So, here they are, my pride and joy:

Thanks, Marc!

Well, I started with one...and then came another, and another...I`m afraid that I`m gonna turn my house into Zoo at some time!

Great to hear that you also have "rescues", and three is serious number!

This is Miles Davis. He's an 8 year old Maine Coon... 20lbs and scared of his own shadow, but by far the best pet we've ever had

So Caroline and I went to the pound the past couple of days as Preston desperately needs a companion. We signed papers and are rescuing another cat. He is the same age, but is a typical short hair domestic and is all black. His pound name is Spooky but we're thinking about calling him Alejandro. I'll post pics tomorrow when we get him from the vet.

It's a Bengal (which is a hybrid domestic/wild cat).

He's really good at playing fetch, and I've trained him to "sit" on command (or before fetching).
