All aspects to Rudolph, I adore Tardar for her wonderful disposition that lusters out, in spite of her downturned mouth. Why Pokey, Tardar’s feline friend, doesn’t get a lot more protection is beyond me, considering that they both have that ‘world-weary’ expression. assumption people just like cats, like checking out pictures as well as videos of cats (if they are great as well as not mean-spirited), as well as want to see more. I have five cats that I regularly snap pictures of, plus any type of feline I discover as I meander with life, as well as I would like to have Grumpy feline as my next-door-neighbor! She’s cute, hands down, imho.
