Milo

June 1998(est) - June 2, 2009
Milo was the senior furry member of our family, born in mid-1998. I fostered him as a kitten for the Animal Defense League in San Antonio, then adopted him. As I fondly remember during a check-up visit, he was only a few ounces shy of the minimum weight required to return him to the shelter, so I decided to keep him. His kitten photos are among the earliest I took with a digital camera, the Olympus D-500L.

Milo slowed down a bit in his latter years, but retained his position as alpha cat, wrestling occasionally with Mac, and still mewing for his deserved attention from loved ones. After eleven good years, he gave his last purrs on June 2, 2009. We'll miss him.
