He's a Russian Blue, so he looks far more serious than he is. Also, there were probably some children or kittens in the yard - he tends to frown on either, but tolerates them quite well for an old fellow. His nature is kind, loving and quiet. When Michelle and I went to get a kitten, Mother's Day 1996 (we'd been married but a month, so this was to be her baby) - we saw a litter of out-of-control three week old kittens going at it as kittens do. There was one asleep in the midst of all the others. Michelle picked him and named him Theodore - so I wouldn't be tempted to name our "next" male that. He traveled by car with us for a month as we followed the Olympic torch down I-40 (quite by accident, I was reporting for duty in Georgia). By the time we got to a home, the cat was a certified lap cat and completely worthless. He's been that way ever since and my bride wouldn't have him any other way.
