We also have 2 cats.  Winkie is a short haired, tiger stripe tabby who loves attention and loves to snuggle. She loves to sit & snuggle with you and will purr you to sleep!
Our Bandit is a long haired Siamese who likes to think he is the man of the house!  He loves to go outside & enjoy nature, but loves human interaction as well and is very talkative!
Given the chance, they will both become paperweights if they decide they want your attention.  They are both a part of our Eveleth family and remind us that we all need a loving and comfortable home!
