FROM THE ELISSON ARCHIVE

Stripes, 1985.

Stripes was our first cat. He became part of our lives in January 1984, a somewhat sickly - but appealing - specimen. With love and a good home, he got healthy fast, and was a companion to the Clan d’Elisson for an all-too-fleeting eleven years.


Stretched-out Stripey, 1985.

And unlike Hakuna and Matata, Stripes was actually...slender.

He’s been gone for ten years, but we still think of him fondly. Requies-kittycat in Pace, Stripey-guy!
