Abby the Cat Kitty

This is our cat Abby.  Her real name is Abrams M1A1 Battle Tank, no joke....and NO I did not pick that name but I'll give you one guess at who did!!  Since I refuse to call her that, we just call her Abby.  (Our other cat is Chester...short for Winchester, also named by Jeff!)  When we were first teaching Luke how to say CAT, we would show him one of our cats and say "kitty cat", but he ended up mixing up his words and to this day still calls them "cat kitties". 

When Abby was just a little kitten, one of the dogs got a hold of her and chased her off.  She was missing for days and we thought she was a goner!  But she found her way home all dirty and crusty from dog saliva.  She was super tired and really banged up.  With some TLC and two days of sleep, she finally bounced back to her spunky self.  She's a pretty skittish cat now, but she is our best little gopher hunter!
