Ignore that ugly couch behind me. It was a freebie from Nana and Granpa's antique business.
Didn't I look like I hurt and ached? I did trust me. Everything hurt. But look at me now!!!
I have a pirate captain for a brother and I am the First Cat on his crew. Jack even gave me the kitty pirate name "Dante Barbossa" and I think it's really cool and catchy sounding - and menancing too ! It instills fear in all catnip boat captains that hear it!! The picture shows us practicing our paw to paw combat technique for use when boarding the Temptation ship.
I have a bathroom to protect and a doggie to hang out with (I guess Samwise is okay - I tolerate him at least).
I even have a desk I can sit at and contemplate writting the first Great American Kitty Novel, just like Ernest Hemmingway (Mommy says Hemmingway loved kitties. She and Daddy went to his house in Key West and met all of the Hemmingway Cats a few years ago).

What a great story!
Seeing you brings back memories of my kittenhood, and of the one I called "The Old Man".
Why? Because you look like him, and seeing you all beat up makes me think that this is what he might have looked like after one of the fights he got into over the years that he was an outdoor cat, and would come home to Daddy to lick his wounds. ;-D
I only knew him for a few months before he passed on, but he taught me a lot.
Thanks, BTW, for stopping by my place yesterday! ;-D
It is thrillin how much you guys look like us. Yet we is backyard mouse hunters an you is pirates! WOW!

Dante - we here in O Hi O know how it is to become a beloved member of a family after a very rough start in life. We are so happy for you! You are wonderful!
awwwwwwwwwwwwwww this is such a nice post. You are certainly looking much happier. I remember when your mommy sent me the first photos of you.
Now you look so very content. Puuuurrrsss to you all!
You are lucky to have a great Mom and Dad and the Captain and Samwise. I really like that classic typewriter ... that's how the real writers do it! (Mom and Dad are big Hemmingway fans, too...)

You are certainly a lucky kitty to have lived through all of that and come out on top in a great furrever home where your humans love you!
Poor Dante. You were really in bad shape when they brought you home. Look at how healthy and happy you are now :-) All it takes is finding your forever family. I wish all cats had that.
Dante - you made it! I am so happy you found these great humans and wonderful companions! Now you can just enjoy!!!
