What a great thread, Pete!
I had a grey cat that looked very much like your Molson - his name was Brinson, and he was beautiful and just a big baby. My wife and I adored him. He passed away about 10 years ago now.
Here are photos of three of my five current cats. They are ALL former feral cats that we took in and love. The first one has become a good house cat. The others mostly stay outside. The calico cats are all about 10 years old, and Buffy and her brother Ginger (I don't have a good digital photo of him, and that's too bad - he is the best looking cat of the whole group) are 9 years old:
This is Buffy - she is spoiled rotten!
This is Minnie (because she is the smallest) - she does come inside once in awhile:
This is Harlie (I called her Harley first, because I thought she was a male cat. Then the vet informed me that ALL calicos are females - LOL):
I have always had cats - we just love 'em!!!
