Lisa's New Boy!

Here is my new boy. Isn't he handsome?? His name is Homer. That name was provided to him by the shelter. He is 17 months old and has beautiful green eyes, loves to be with people and is very affectionate.

Oliver is not very impressed with his mommy at the moment and Jersey just will take what comes his way as long as the food bowl is full.

What do you think about the name???? The name "Homer" conjures up images of 'The Simpson's' rather than the Greek philosopher who wrote "Iliad" and "Odyssey". But...who the hell has read "Iliad" anyhow??? Mommy is open to suggestions, if you have any. The name is starting to stick....

He's gorgeous!

I think Homer is a great name. I would keep it. I love his little front paws.

Dallas swears she didn't let Tommy out after he came in this morning, but I see no trace of him... and Hobo's not talking... :-(

He's absolutely adorable. Look at the little charmer posing for a picture. Awwwww.

I like Homer, too.

Yes, Homer and Misty sounds like an old romantic chick flick....

Oh pleez. "Homer and Misty" is a porn film title. You know the one... geek finds himself in a peeler joint, meets Misty, the stripper with the heart of gold... cue the wahwah music...

Aww... I met Homer last night and I can report that he's not only beautiful, but polite and affectionate.

Thanks so much, Auntie Christy! You are the best. And thanks for the treats and scratches.
