Some of our beloved critters. Henry at the pool. Auggie and dear departed Mork at the fishing dock. Mork was terrified of everything until sweet Auggie joined the crew, then he became fearless. Mu in his favorite toy. Eric made muandfu.com when his brother Fu left us a few years ago. Mu is now like 95 in cat years, and after a cancer surgery (in his poor little colon), he is still strong.

Fuji loved being in photo shoots. On this day, I had been setting up to take a photo of a lamp for my little company. Fu loved being in the studio lights and posed dramatically. He was so beautiful. He died during our Oregon years. I still miss him.

Eli was our big boy. Eric’s mom brought him home one day after a visit to Walmart where someone was giving away puppies. They were bachelor “dogs” together – Eli and Eric. Eric named him Eli because “he lies like a dog”. He once ate a piece of siding off my house. He once ate a feral baby chicken in Hawaii. As much as we loved that dog, I believe he loved us even more.

None of my passwords use names of my critters.
