Tinks

Felis catus

First turned up as a tiny kitten about three years ago, came back pregnant, vanished for two months, then re-adopted us (and the neighbours). Lives here in all but name. Usually found lounging exactly where you want to walk, and always comes over to see what you're up to; slight hip dysplasia gives her a wobble at speed. Tabby and white, green eyes, pink nose, and a ginger wash on her ears that makes her a likely torbie.
