This Photo Album

is all about

He not quite smart,

but he's certainly

not dumb.

A little laid back,

but quite active

when the notion

strilkes him.

He's taken on the task

of supervising the

Big One, much to

the amusement of

the Small One.

Life, to him is

all about his love for his human Mom.

~ Rowdy ~

Webmaster's NOTE:

Aquick visit to the local Vet was made the morning after welcoming the new baby into Five Oaks Manor. The report

was not good. It was the Vet's belief that the little

guy would not live. He did prescribe numerous

medications for Lisa's little one and wished us luck.

Back home the vigil began with Lisa taking

her place at the table in the family room with

Rowdy in her arms. She spent the first three days

there, long into the night. The first night she was

there all night long, administering the proper

doseages and just holding and loving her new baby.

Long story short; she saved his life.

He's never forgotten the warmth and love he had in those arms, and takes every chance he can get to curl there daily.

He may be called the baby here and there on the web site, but he is NOT a baby in size today. He's outgrown all three of his big brothers. Still he will always be the baby that cuddles in his Mom's arms while she's reading the newspaper at the table, or knitting another of her lovely afghans for a Christmas or Birthday gift. He's allowed. He grew up in Mom Lisa's arms.

The first few weeks of his life in his new home were spent in those loving arms taking his medicines and vitamins and being fed. The name the Vet gave us for

the illness Rowdy came to us

with is not important now .....

to be honest I do NOT

remember it. Just be satisfied

with the fact that Lisa saved

the little guy's life. I do

believe he realizes that fact

too.

With just a little over

a month's age difference,

Tegar, the Tiger, became

instant chaperone of our new

little guy. When Rowdy wasn't

in his Mom's arms he was being

taken care of by little Tegar. They were inseparable.

This was taken in December of 2005

Much Cat Nap time was spent on the hastily made bed beside the computer, where Dad got his share of what quality time Tegar would allow. Mostly Dad observed and hoped for a speedy recovery.

As he did with MikiCato, Buddy Bear took the new addition to Five Oaks Manor in paw and assumed the supervision the little one's recuperation.

Our prayers were answered and soon the little one was up and about, flitting here and there, always under foot, acting just like a kitten (what else), with all the inquisitiveness and mischief one would expect of a healthy, loved, and well protected baby.

The little one was well. He would grow up to be a big boy some day.

A Footnote here: This one DID grow, and grow, and grow, and at the day of this writing is the largest of the Six Mouskateers of Five Oaks Manor. Still though, he's 'The Baby!'
