I picked him up at a pet store when I was in college...didn't know better back then;) They told me he was a female and I named her "Cleo" but it wasn't too long before I figured out he was a male and I changed his name to "Albrecht" after one of my favorite artists. I hid him in my dorm room my freshman year and rollerbladed around campus with him in my backpack. He has moved all over the place with me and has multiple personalities. He's a mamma's boy and never fails to show his affection.  He is very vocal and lets you know when he wants something.  Sometimes he just wines and moans because he likes the sound of his own voice echoing throughout the house.

Albrecht is very intelligent and playful. He thinks he's still a kitten even though he's 10 years old! One minute he'll be snuggling with you one the couch and the next he'll be attacking you until he has to go in "time out". He loves car rides, new people, escaping outdoors, putting toys in my shoes (and in the toilet) and being wrapped up like a baby. Don't let his cuteness fool you though...mess with this guy and he'll come back for revenge!!!

I adopted Botticelli from a family that no longer wanted him. He came to me severely matted and aloof. After a neat lion cut and some TLC he has turned into a spectacular himalayan. Everyone who meets him falls in love with him because of his quirky but sweet personality.  He fit right in and is a very humerous addition to our household.

Botticelli is a complete snob. He watches the other cats and dogs play but is too good to join in. He is above that.  He comes to us for attention and is amazingly affectionate. However, he wouldn't care if we all dropped dead either:) He loves laying on our chests as we watch TV.  We laugh at him all the time because he just looks so funny. He could be stepped on, run over by dogs, rolled over on in bed, locked in a cabinet...he doesn't react at all to anything. He fears nothing and will not go out of his way for anyone.

Oh and he often sleeps with his face flat against the floor...it's hysterical...check out the picture;)

We found Cezanne in the paper and contacted the breeder. I went to pick him up and thought he was the cutest kitten I have ever seen! He took a looooong time to warm up to us and the other pets but now he's just one of the gang. He loves sneak attacking his brothers and wrestles with Albrecht all day and night.

He's got quite the personality but he is very fearful of people and that has never changed. He loves the other animals though.  He's demanding of your attention one minute and the next acts as though he's never seen you before in his life. The best thing is his Meow. He leaves out the "Me" and just squeaks out the "Ow". He jumpes up on the bed saying "ow, ow, oooowwww!
