Milo is our 6 year old "Aby-Tabby" cat. We attribute his beefy stature
(about 16 pounds the last time he hit the scales) and rugged tiger stripes
to his Tabby father -- a rather notorious alley cat who snuck into the neighbor's kennel and impregnated Milo's mother, the breeder's finest
feline. From his Abyssinian mother, Milo inherited a penchant for eating
cantaloupe and a love of high places; he prefers to sleep the night away on
top of our refrigerator. By day he's an indoor bird hunter, virtually stalking his feathered prey from our dining room window, licking his chops
and dreaming of the one that got away.
