Steve Bates said...: Bryan beat me to the use of the word "formidable"; that was my first thought. There was a cat like Oscar in my neighborhood when I was growing up. Nothing... and no one... challenged that cat!; 6:20 AM
jams o donnell said...: Thanks Digital. He was a handsome but friendly fellow

Formidable is a good word for him. He was fairly small but he was very strong; 8:59 AM
Dragonstar said...: He has a decidedly "don't mess with me" look, but I bet he enjoyed his fussing too. He lived to a good age.; 9:59 AM
jams o donnell said...: That is anexcellent description of Oscar! He also would purr for ages; 10:02 AM

Mimi on steroids?; 2:34 PM
jams o donnell said...: I shudder to think what steroids would do to poor little Mimi!; 4:06 PM
