Antigone

Here's the "Tig" of Elektratig. She was a cranky old lady of 22 years when this picture was taken. By that point she was pretty stiff and not washing herself too well. She's in particular disarray here since she's just woken from a nap on the bed on our screened-in porch.

I adopted her and her sister, Elektra, from Bide-A-Wee when they were eight weeks old. Bide-A-Wee apparently made an exception to its policy by putting them up for adoption although they had ear mites. The rep said that they had just been rescued from a bad situation -- no details -- and the shelter wanted to get them placed as soon as possible despite the minor medical issue. It was love at first sight.
