That wooden bucket that you see in the background is an actual "Old Oaken Bucket"! It dates from the 1800's just about the time of our Civil War. We keep newspapers in it for starting fires!
He is one smart kitty.I notice he is in front of the heater Capt and not behind it. I'm an antique nut love the bucket.
If you look behind the stove you can see his fake sheepskin mat. He usually sleeps on it, but I think he got too hot! He will be so warm when he comes out from behind the stove, he feels like he should go "POOF" up in smoke!
I love that stove and the 'Old oaken bucket.' A very wise cat you've got there. When there's all that snow around he knows just where to be. :-D
He has a real original name. " Whitey " Most of the time we just call him kitty. He follows me all over the place. Spends a lot of time laying in between my feet as I set in the chair. In the summer he will swing with me, if I lift him up and put him in the swing. He is about 10 or 11 years old and has artheritis so he spends a lot of time where it is warm to keep his old bones flexible. Right now he is at my feet , under the computer cabinet.
