That's a pretty cat. Reminds me of one that hung around the neighborhood I
lived in in Santa Fe. No one knew who owned him or where he lived, but he
was healthy and fat, so he wasn't a stray. The people in the neighborhood
called him Hitler. Yes, Hitler. The cat somewhat resembled the Nazi
leader...lol He was a white cat with black on the top of his head and a
black spot under his nose, like Hitler's moustache. He actually answered to
the name, and we tried to get him to change names to something less, well,
racist. He refused to answer to any other name! People out there had been
calling him Hitler for years.

Here's photos of Hitler fighting with Oliver, a cat who belonged to the girl
I was dating there.
