Meet the three
Three cats, three very different personalities, and a household that would not be the same without them.
-
Toothpick
Toothpick is my cat and the middle child. She's a tabby with a broken tail, and I got her as a kitten with one of my friends. She made the move with me from Michigan to South Dakota. She's all attitude and no bite — she acts like she hates being touched, then turns around and decides the best place to sleep is directly on top of you.

Lila
Lila is my boyfriend's cat and the eldest. She's also a tabby, and she's vocal, playful, and very motivated by food and treats. She has never been much of a lap cat; she usually prefers loving you from a little distance or settling near your feet. Lately, though, she's gotten more affectionate and will curl up beside you — or even on top of you — when you're on the couch.

Milo
Milo is both of ours and the youngest. We got him here in the town where we live now. He's vocal, a complete mama's boy, and wants to be with me basically 24/7. He loves to lay on me and follow me around, and he really is my soul cat. When we first got him he was flea-ridden and pretty rough-looking, but he has come a very long way since then.
