This is not a new photograph but John in NY probably hasn't seen her yet:

Of course I hadn't. She's beautiful.


She's very pretty. And she knows it.

I'm going to get some pictures of Minnie up
somewhere, but I have to get batteries for my camera first.

Looking forward to pictures of Minnie.

I seem to recall you mentioning that Buffy is a former feral. Is that how vets
clip a cat's ears to indicate it's been altered


Yes. TNR - trap, neuter, release. They also give the cats vaccinations
against rabies and other outdoor infections before they release them.
The notched ear is so they can distinguish the cats who have already
been treated. The person who took Buffy in did so after she'd been a
part of the cat colony but also when she was young enough to adapt
easily to an indoor setting.

We don't seem to have a
TNR program around here, so I've read about it, but never seen how they do it.

Sure you do. Apparently you haven't looked.

Oh, BTW, I blew her up to 1024x768 and...well, have a look:
