Brutus
We adopted Brutus in 2010 from a local animal shelter. He was already fully grown when we got him, so we estimate he's around 5 years old. He's a big orange boy, who has crossed eyes! He likes to "talk" and absolutely loves attention. Todd is his favorite and he can usually be found cuddling next to Todd on the couch watching football or napping with him! Anyone who meets Brutus thinks he's the coolest cat. He is named after Brutus the mascot for the Ohio State Buckeyes.

Nibbler
We got Nibbler in 2011 as a tiny kitten, and he's about 2 years old. He's a cute grey tabby boy who is very curious about everything. He loves to play and cuddles with Kirsten at night. He is named after a character from Futurama (a cartoon that we both love).

In December 2013 we adopted another kitten! We named her Catniss, after the heroine from the Hunger Games series (of course we had to change the spelling!), and she is adorable! She's grey and white and has a cute "soul patch" right in the center of her chin! She's got tons of crazy kitten energy and is so fun to watch. She absolutely LOVES everyone!
