Odd Man...In!

Well there I was, back to an even number. What’s a cat lady to do… Oh hello Petfinder, how did you pop up on my screen?
He had the face of an angel! They called him “Garth”. I quickly made arrangements to travel to the big city that night with a friend; we shall call her Jenkins (I hate navigating the big city alone).
Jenkins and I made it there minutes before closing and to my disappointment Garth was nowhere to be found. As a last ditch effort I tried to recruit the help of the employees most of which were only interested in closing and going home for the evening. Thankfully one gentleman was especially helpful and directed me to his special section. Is it even possible to just look at kittens!?!? I was able to sweet talk the gentleman into letting me adopt since I had come sooo far out of my way even though they were technically closed.

Meet: Garth Gunrack Jenkins

Alias;
My Special lil Guy
Buddy
Big Boy
Galloping Garth
Girth
Dork
Garthamundus

Garth; because I feel they should always retain their roots, plus it’s a fun and fitting name.
Gunrack; because the name Garth brings to mind Wayne’s World and my favorite quote from the movie… “A gun rack? A gun rack. Schaaa right! I don’t even own A gun, let alone many guns that would necessitate an entire rack! What am I gonna do with a gun rack!?”
Jenkins; after the dear friend who helped me navigate my way to my special lil guy.

He is by all means a special cat. He even gets talked to in a special voice.

He sees Karma and her delicate ninja skills and tries to mimic her which more often than not becomes a comedy of errors. He is a rather large and awkward beast, both the vet and I agree he has some Maine Coon in him (and he’s still growing).

I’ve lost track of how many times he has fallen out of the apple trees now.

He has a medium length coat and seems to be oblivious to the “hitchhikers” he picks up along the way. Thank goodness Karma has some strong motherly instincts and helps clean him up.

His favorite pass time is taking dirt baths (collecting hitchhikers)…

He also enjoys throwing his weight around with the other kids…

Karma is about to get it...and she knows it... (she's looking to me for help) Sorry kid, I'm just the photographer!

Who's chasing who?...
