My Grandcats



Pictured here are my three grandcats. Aren't they lovely?

Actually, I have four but the other cat is not in this picture. These cats are Frank, Illford and Jet(standing). Unfortunately, Smokey , the one not pictured is not very well at this time. She is 16 years old and is not expected to live much longer.



These cats were born to a stray cat at my daughter's house and she sort of inherited them. She did not really set out to have four cats. There were four in this stray bunch but one came up missing and they never knew what happened to it. So with Smokey and the new three she ended up with four. My daughter is a cat lover so those cats are lucky that she took them in. She had them neutered and gradually converted them to tame cats. They were kind of wild in the beginning but after a time they became more domesticated.



She spends a fortune on cat food and cat litter. But she loves the cats and they are assured a home as long as they live!

Those are arrogant looking cats!! They look like they KNOW they have it made!! They are cute. But I am glad they live at her house and not mine!

They're beautiful cats. Where did the name Illford come from?

Carla and Tony thought it up. I never asked how or why they picked that name, It is kind of stupid--maybe that is why they picked it!

I found out that Illford is a brand name for a type of camera film. So that is where the name Illford came from.
