Colette is 1 to 2 years old, a friendly female cat. She was spayed in March 2010 and may still show surgery scars. She is gray on top with black stripes (a gray tabby) with white below and white paws. Her tail is gray with black horizontal stripes. She’s quick to purr, and her vocalization sounds a lot like a Siamese cat. I think she sounds like Lauren Bacall after too many cigarettes.

Grandpa’s Turn To Brag
April 4th, 2010 · No Comments · Family
My daughter Chenoa and granddaughter Teagan came to visit for Easter. I was so pleased when Chenoa reminisced about her Grandmother Willis, who shared my conviction that her granddaughter looked like the model for Renoir’s Girl With a Watering Can. Chenoa said to Teagan, “Your Great-Grandmother Willis was a fine lady.” I was so touched to think of my mother in this light, as a chrished great-grandmother.
