Chili, the picture of innocence...HA! |

Named Bruce Wayne by the animal rescue, we've played around with our boy's moniker until it's evolved into Chili Bruce Lee. The veterinarian declared that Chili has some Oriental cat breed in him, as indicated by his body shape, glossy fur, and head shape...hence the 'Bruce Lee' extension to his name. Chili has one white whisker, and is only a few ounces lighter than brother Manny. If Manny's Alpha-cat personality ranks an 11 on the 1 to 10 scale, then Chili is about 8-1/2; still plenty full of energy, but he can quietly sit in a box too. When the two of them hit the open door, all humans and cats WATCH OUT...the beasts are unleashed and you'd better stay out of their way!
Chili also licks my fleecy tops, and likes to lay on my legs, and then wriggle up to my chest for a nap. Angel hisses at both of Da Boyz, however she's allowed Chili to sit near her for a couple of minutes in silence. Chili will not let a morsel of food escape his notice!
I look forward to spending the upcoming work break with all of our cats, as the office is closed from 12/25/17 to 1/2/18. Being in charge of several off-site and all-day work meetings this week, I've barely caught my breath. And the substantial snowfall that occurred on Wednesday, ate up a lot of my free time due to driving VERY SLOWLY on the snow-choked roads. I promise to visit all of my blogging friends soon!
They are so gorgeous! And in excellent hands, we know.

ReplyDeleteLook at that Chili tail! He sure is one happy boy!
ReplyDeleteThey are both such cuties. I am sure their first Christmas is going to be exciting and fun.
ReplyDeleteI used to have a huge black cat that was hyperactive and an alpha male cat, and he wouldn't get off my lap. Sometimes he'd cry when I left for work, and once he chased me for two or three blocks, calling me back. He'd sit on my lap with his head cradled on my arm, like a baby, or with his head on my chest. Those were the days.
ReplyDeleteChili Bruce Lee is such a great name for your gorgeous boy! I love his white whisker. So adorable :-) I hope you will enjoy holiday with your kitties!

ReplyDeleteWe love those shiny panther furs.
