"Dahling... Peel Me a Grape"

Uploaded: September 14, 2009

Description

Aristo-cats

Do our cats live in the lap of luxury, or what?! They seem to know it...

It was Mae West who said "peel me a grape," but this kitty's name is Rocky, short for Rocky Racoon. We do feel she has Bette Davis eyes! The one behind her is TC, for Tuxedo Cat.
