76. Cats, lets see which ones are remaining

Feb 2014

Over the past 14 months I've lost four of my most senior cats aged 19 to 21 years old. One 18 year old male remains with me today recovering from a recent double surgery. My other younger and very healthy home cats I can enjoy yet but all but three were born between April '01 and August '02 and will now entering their senior years. While the cats were young I liked to photo record their development near monthly but had stopped photographing them when we started suffering the losses. I've been recently considering updating my old cameras with something newer with the priority looking to cat and nature macro photography. Hope to start-up with the photography work this coming spring season.

Here are a few pics of my current middle aged cats.
