Okay...I'll bite ( :lol: ) This is Genius (the black one) and Nellie, the calico. Both rescues, Genius is a tail-less Manx who is 22 pounds and a little less than graceful (or coordinated) as far as cats go. After I had him for a year, I went back to work full time and he threw all his fur (think of that old stuffed animal you just couldn't get your kid to throw out!!)...the vet said he was stressed out and lonely so we got Nellie to keep him company. Weighing in at only 1 1/2 pounds when I brought her home, she marched right in and walked UNDER him at his food bowl, lifted his head out of the way and began eating his food! I think he regretted throwing his fur at that point!!
They have been faithful companions to each other, and to me, and have moved with me five times since 2005!

Penelope...Nellie for short
