I totally confess to making up little stories about these Furrals and their relationships with each other. Some of the things I know, some I assumed (and some I am sure I am assuming wrongly, lol).
Daddy, Gimpy and a gray and white cat were three of the 4 who were pets at one time. Maybe Orange Boi is too, given how friendly he is, but I don't actually know that for sure. What I do know is that Mommy is Tiny Face's mother, and I am almost positive that Gimpy is Mommy Cat's mom. Charcoal, Forest, White Tip and Blaze (all under a year old) are Gimpy's kittens. Bandit, who lives under the neighbor's shed, is a tux that is Tiny Face's littermate. I used to think Daddy was the father of Tiny's litter as he would lay in the sun and let those kittens crawl all over him. But he also took care of Mommy Cat's babies so maybe he just likes bitty kittens. Before finding out that Daddy was one of the Originals, I thought perhaps he was a descendent of Mr. Smiley (an unfixed Tom neighbors had many years ago). For the longest time we always had exactly one big tabby tom here. Mr. Smiley, One Ear, and others. They would wander through every now and then, but none stuck around. They always seemed a good omen to me. I guess we have the best omen now though, as Daddy is a total sweetheart of a cat. After seeing this picture I took, I am really thinking maybe he is Tiny Face's papa. She absolutely adores him, and loves to give him headbutts and frolic after his limpy self. (Yes, I know that I am totally anthropomorphizing these cats and that this gang is probably an inbred hot mess, but they deserve to have stories and so I am sticking to it.) And yes, the excessive 'winter coat' on her cracks me up too!
