Awww. :D This will only be Tom's second Christmas, and Freddie's first, but I didn't expect Tom to make it to another Christmas! *fingers crossed* that he does, eep. I worry so much about my little furballs.

unlucky_one_x3 December 20 2005, 20:44:56 UTC

blob December 20 2005, 23:21:56 UTC

Hehe! He is a cutie. I don't really think of him as grey as Tom is grey, and he's so much darker than Tommy! He's almost black! But I guess he is still grey, hehe.
