I can't believe Niles slept on your chest at all - I imagine not for long or else so much for you breathing!<br />You made the only decision you really could to keep the other cats in the house.

I had a love named Sammy once, and he jumped into somoene's open car window. I saw the car drive off, with the darn cat in the back window but I could not get the car's attention. I was only 16 at the time. I was so sad but I kept hoping that they would give him a home. Not sure if they did.Tihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00926060806244061354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-90630032870615462272011-04-24T00:08:05.594-04:002011-04-24T00:08:05.594-04:00Niles is such a handsome kitty!Niles is such a handsome kitty!Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01739982274914536036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-46267766394372247932011-04-23T23:39:48.531-04:002011-04-23T23:39:48.531-04:00Just from the photos I can tell that Niles was one...Just from the photos I can tell that Niles was one cool cat!
