Percy, the Purring Pistol Prince of Pass A Grille.

We could write a book about Percy's life. The short version is that he was born on the beach, and loves to go there. He chose to live with us.

He is our original Gallery Puddy. He has a wonderful sense of humor and loves to talk. And, he loves when pottery is delivered.

He became a celebrity when President Clinton
came shopping in the Gallery. The President held him in his arms, for an adorable photo op. In correspondence with the President after his visit, we advised him that
Percy was going around the neighborhood telling all the other cats that his fur was on the Presidents jacket in the White House. President Clinton responded with a gift for Percy- a special photo of Socks, the White House cat. One day when Percy is at the Beach, I will try to get into his personal photo box and get that picture on the Web.

Bandit
our second gallery Cat

5 years ago, at Christmas time, we discoverd a tiny kitten living under the Gallery. For 8 months she would not come out. So every morning, Joey would deliver food and milk just outside the patio deck and leave. Kitty would come out, eat and go back under the gallery.

Finally, she came out to Joey and sat in her lap. Scooped up, a trip to the Vet, recovery in the shipping room, and now guess who rules! She lives at the Gallery, and loves to sit on top of the jewelry case where all the gold is! Her other favorite place is in the packing popcorn bin!

Here she is on top of the file cabinet, reminding us that we are behind in filing. And, then, dreaming of her paid vacation time.

Please note: (she asked) her nose is in the shape of a heart.
