Silvester

William's homework is to create a poster board of his pet.  That is one of my favorite topics! 
                                                                  Silvester! 

He was very small when we got him, full of energy...

He has always been very curious so we tend to find him in unusual places....

the dishwasher..

                                                                     the dryer...

                                                                   in a six pack...

shoe box...

                                                        in the bookcase

playing with trains..

in a clean laundry basket fresh from the dryer on top of the kitchen table...

on top of a giant Christmas present...

on top of all the packed boxes for moving day...

almost to the ceiling!

                                                   on Victor's pillows!!!

At an early age he learned the beauty of fresh water...

A practice he continues to do -  exclusively - as far as I can tell..
Last week he meowed at our guest until she turned on the water in the tub for him to drink.

he also enjoys the outdoors, preferably at night right before you want to go to bed, but can't because you have to let him back in the house

he tends to sit on top of whatever you are doing - just to say hi...

                                                       he loves to be a part of the action...

and to sleep ...he is a cat after all

 He eats everything - guacamole, chicken alfredo, enchiladas, spaghetti, pork chops, EVERYTHING.  He weighs about 22 lbs and is 13 years old. 

look at that big boy!

when he stands on his hind legs he can reach the door knob and open our bedroom door

We all love him.  He has come to love the boys and let them pet and carry him around.  He even goes in Robbie's room at 5 am to wake him up so that Robbie can feed him. 

Isn't he the sweetest?
