Jack the cat

Last Friday Jack had his one month checkup after being treated for hyperthyroidism.  He has made a wonderful recovery.  His weight is up to 14 pounds 8 ounces and his patchy fur is now thick and shiny with no bald spots.  Best of all I'm not treated to a view of a hairless pink belly (with nipples) when he is lounging.  Unfortunately, although everyone who meets him says he is a handsome cat, he is not at all photogenic, so I'm posting a picture of "me" in my new spring hat instead.

And here is a picture I found in an old sewing book.  It's like getting to meet a former owner.  I think I would have really liked her.
