			Lord Byron has a Cousin. Her name is Empress CiCi-- she and Byron are cousins because
			their humans are sisters. She is a very special Russian Blue Cat: here is her picture.
			She loves pretty things, especially flowers. We give her a vase with flowers next
			to her food bowl. CiCi rules the humans like she is an Empress. She is very lovable,
			but when she wants something, like a little chicken meat, or a new collar, she tells
			us and we get it for her immediately. We try to keep her happy and purring all the
			time!

			LB is doing very well-- here is also a recent photo of him in the garden... It
			is hard to believe he is more than 11 years old! 
			
			  
			Here is a drawing I made of Lord Byron, and a cartoon I drew of a rice ball shaped
			like a cat... they are just for fun. :-)
