There are two cats in my life; Gerry
(Geronimo) and Kitty (?). Although they now live with my mother, they
still recognise me!

Felix/Kit/Katherine/Psipsina/Puss
Kitty is the older cat. She is long-haired,
very pretty, and very sweet to about 4 people while ignoring everyone
else. Visitors are completely mystified when we rave about her
charms and are so offhand about the other cat, who normally behaves
to strangers so much better. Her name has changed over the years.
She began as Felix, then she became Kit (which was later dignified
into Catherine). Then we all read Captain Corelli's Mandolin,
and she became Psipsina. Most of the time we just call her 'What
a puss!' or 'Kitty!', which she recognises when it suits her.

Geronimo (Gerry)
Gerry is a young Tom; very big and friendly,
and normally in awe of Kitty.
