I have zzyzx the cat. She's 16.5 yrs old, marmalade & white (see avatar), American medium hair (heeheehee) and I adopted her from the pound. Before her, I had a lab/shepherd mix named Jensen. Yes, my dog was named after a car (Jensen Healy) and my cat is named after a road (Zzyzx Road, off the I-15 between Barstow & Las Vegas). I couldn't pick a favorite, but I would say that the cat is lower maintenance. :wink:
