Skip
This picture of Skip was the very first thing I posted on Flickr way back on March 5, 2012.
Skip was a bit of a problem child. I got him as a tiny kitten when one of our clients found him in a meadow with no mother or siblings around. He was sick and hadn't been weaned yet. I took him home, medicated him, snuggled with him and fed him and then on the 10th day he got better and promptly turned feral. He was aggressive - not cute, playful, kitten aggressive but full out "fighting for his life" aggressive. I spent more time and went to greater lengths to win Skip's trust than I have with any other animal in my life so when he died at 8 months old he left such a huge hole in my life that I had to get two kittens to help fill it - which is how I ended up with Jimmy and Mack.
