More Pictures of Smoke
	Yes, we might be slightly biased, but we think that Smoke is one of the most beautiful cats on earth. Look at those eyes! Look at those colors. He's soft, cuddly, entirely lovable and sweet. He's also a photo hog! Take out a camera, and there he is, ready to pose. He sits still and will look right into the camera. We have a lot of pictures to prove it.

11/03/2002	<--- Doesn't he look like he's smiling? This is right BEFORE the artificial flower arrangement behind him was ripped to pieces and chewed up.
07/13/2003	<--- Smoke spends his summer days at the pond, chasing anything that moves, relaxing and sunning.
	07/13/2003	<---This photo was taken at night, the only night he stayed outside after dark. He discovered the joy of chasing moths and lightning bugs.
12/06/2003	<--- I was taking pictures of the orchids in the atrium and look who popped up!
	---> Here's that famous sleep position. Showing off the curly tummy hairs. Smoke's eye might be open, but he really IS asleep.	01/03/2004
