Sammy was adopted from the Anchorage Animal Shelter in Anchorage, Alaska 10 years ago. He's definitely "top cat" in our family and a wonderful kitty who enjoys traveling.
It's been amazing to see all the new freckles show up as he grows older.
2006 update: Sam has recently been diagnosed with diabetes. What caught our attention was his sudden voracious appetite and accompanying weight loss. He now gets 2 shots of day of insulin a day and is doing great.
