Kitties! Servals, a caracal, and one house cat!

-
Sick of bad news? Need cheering up? Your distant cousin can do just that! Ana is her name--meet Ana, and see what others have said, about her, like this reader on the Kindle Boards:

“Things have been extremely difficult around here…. The adventures of the Mendez family provided a wonderful distraction. And the ending filled me with hope, for some inexplicable reason. I love the warmth and togetherness of the family.”

It might seem odd that an extraterrestrial would love Earth's cats, but then again--why not? Ana Darcy is completely human, yet we know cats have peculiar tastes in people. In any case, Ana's family happens to acquire a caracal, in Distant Cousin: Regeneration. Ana's editor sometimes thinks another of the cat family, a serval, would make a better choice. You will have to decide for yourself if a caracal worked out better for the Méndez family. Below you may see why servals are so attractive to some of us. (Note: there's a caracal in the third photo below.)

Julie has posted some new kitty pictures at JuliesJungle.com and has graciously allowed us to reproduce some samples here. Our guess is that napping with a serval cat might separate the true cat lover from one who just likes having a cat or two around! Thanks, Julie!









There are many more kitty pictures in the Photo section of the Table of Contents on the right, including:
