A Monster Named Odin

I visited with my family to mark my niece's engagement, and all of us had a good time. Here is my nephew Bill holding his Maine Coon mixbreed cat Odin, who weighs about twenty pounds.

Since Odin is only two and a half years old he may still grow larger and heavier before long. Here's the big cat as a kitten, during my first season as a blipster.

He's a wgentle, intelligent pet and a great hunter. Sometimes he perches in trees behind the house and watches over his humans. It's always a treat to see this beautiful creature again.
