My cousins

Momma visiting her aunties in Chicago and northern Wisconsin. She's sent me some pictures of my cousins whom I've never met.

This is Diva, who lives with Aunt Betty Jo. She is a very sassy panther. She likes to play with catnip mousies and she attacks Nutmeg, the big golden doggie.
This is Susie Q, and she's a real old girl now. She's 18, I think. She has great white toes and a white smudge on her nose. I think this makes her look very distinguished. I wish I could meet her, but that would require riding in the car...

This is Smokey Joe. We have the same middle name! He's a big-boned guy, too, like me. He's a little crotchety these days, though, because he doesn't like the big puppy dog. She's real doggie-ish, not a cat-dog like Coco, and he doesn't like sharing the living room with her. I can understand that. Big bouncing dogs can really interrupt a good roll on the floor.

This is my cousin Ted, who lives with Auntie Susan in woody Wisconsin. He's a real old guy now, about 17, but he still goes out and patrols the yard. He's got a great lion mane!

I'm glad Momma sent me pictures of my cousins, since I'll probably never get to meet them in person (the whole car-sickness thing makes visiting family a problem).
