His AVID chip says "Dixie" but I call him Gabriel Boojal Scraggsworth, or Gabie Baby Baby Baby Baby Baby Baby Sweet Pretty Baby Baby for short. He is worth a blog of his own, but for now I just want to make sure his every day is filled with warmth.
He is growing on me like lush, green ivy.
When he turns his head a certain way his lines form distinct memories of Maui. They resemble each other in ways I wouldn't have welcomed consciously. I'm surprised by this wonderful old cat. I'm smiling for the first time in 2 years.
Gabie Baby Baby Baby Baby Baby.
3 (not very good) photos of my devastatingly pretty boy - he looks like a wildcat!
