This page is dedicated to Duquesa, my 16 year old calico cat. She owned me from her arrival at around 6 mos. old until she died naturally in her sleep August 16th, 1997. She slept purring on my chest early that morning so was apparently not in pain at the end. I miss her very much. But she lived a full life with us and left us with many good memories.
For those of you who like cat pictures, see the links section below for a homepage with 300 cat pictures. You can send in a scan of your cat to be added to the archive!
For those of you who like cats, poetry, writing, or are Irish: here is a version of an 8th or 9th century ode to a cat called Pangur Ban, written originally by an anonymous monk and found in a book called 1000 Years of Irish Poetry, edited by Kathleen Hoagland.
For those of you who like other kinds of animals, here are some good animal and pet links.
