Jigs: Guardian of the Ginormous Slumbering Manchild
















Jigs was rescued by our family as a tiny 4 ounce just born babycat (along with three sisters who were placed in homes specially chosen by myself). This was long enough ago that her real name is Jigglypuff. You can see by the photos who she prefers to hang out with. But I ask you: Who bottlefed her every 2 hours?, Who wiped her little hiney with a warm cloth so she could go poo and not die of a bowl obstruction? Who convinced hubby to fork over $1200 so the vet could open her up from stem to sternum in order to dig out a piece of foam that she had eaten when she was 1 year old? Now, who does she give her love to?
Whata bitch!!

Don't be jealous. She's trying to steal his breath.

It hasn't been all that long - her namesake Jiggleypuff is still alive and well on Cartoon Network. And I have a teen ager who looks just like that most of the time!
