Quetzlcoatl

So when we had Fatbody we had another cat, Quetzlcoatl. Also a beautiful, loving kitty. We adopted him from some people who just didn't want him anymore. He was 9 months old and spraying their apartment. So we got him fixed and never had a moment's trouble out of him. Since I had been digging through old cat photos, I ran into a lot of the supermodel Q and thought I would post them.

I'll get the sad side note out of the way, a month after we put Fatbody down, Q was hit by a car, thus proving that we lived on far too busy a street to ever let our pets outside again. Because they were wonderful kitties and because we were in deep mourning, we waited about 7 months before we adopted two homeless kitties that had been found wandering the streets together, a little posse. Oso and Ixtapa can never replace FB and Q, but they are fantastic in their own right, especially in the winter when they get on the bed and curl up into each other.

This was his standard supermodel pose, I think he must have known when we had the camera out.

He loved to lay on his back, just hanging out. He was the least spooked cat we ever had.

Just your typical Summer day.

It was around Christmas time and we were babysitting some friends' child so they could go to a work party. Of course, since we are responsible adults, we thought a little Powerpuff Girls was exactly what 9 month old Maddie needed! When we came to the episode with the evil cat, Q just stood in front of the television watching, and occasionally reaching up to try to touch the other kitty on the screen.
