Hello, Readers.
Today, we meet Mr. Niles Chesterfield of Cambridge. London. (He insisted I add that. He’s from Wisconsin. He’s not fooling anyone.) Niles is the senior member of the Grelyak household. Having been adopted from a no-kill rescue somewhere about the turn of the century, (this latest one, not the previous one), Niles has been with MomFOD throughout her college years and all the years beyond. He’ll be celebrating his 18th birthday this year and is still chugging along like a champ. Let’s hear what he has to say!

Crepes: How’s the weather today, Niles?
Niles: What feather?
Crepes: No, the weather!
Niles: Back in Ott 9, I recall a rather beautiful feather. It tickled my fancy, one might say.
Crepes: Right… So, tell us about yourself?
Niles: I have a fabulous shelf. High up on the wall, built by my Alana herself. Quite a good show she put on, really.
Crepes: I see.
Niles: So can I! Hearing’s not so good these days, though.
Crepes: You don’t say.
Niles: It’s Tuesday.
Crepes: I quit.

Anyway, there you have it! Dear Old Niles, the 17, almost 18, year old black cat with the scruffy fur and a love of cuddling. He would like to represent the senior constituency of our readers.
Love,
Crepes.
Hello Niles, my cat is british as well — Simon Smythe-Katz.
Hello Niles, come meet your soul bro Clyde who is the same age, black, diabetic and going deaf xo
Old kitties possess a wisdom that we mere human mortals will never attain.
oh I totally want to kiss the top of his head
MOL, Niles! Binga hears just about as well.
Niles is a cutie. I am glad he is doing well.
We think posts by Niles would be VERY interesting. He should go first.
Somehow we’re hearing a British accent out of Niles. We thought he was from Wisconsin!
Mrrrp? Meow! My name is Lilith and I am sixteen years young. (sniffsniffsniff) Mr. Niles, my mentor was a House Panther like you but he didn’t like me furry much. (PurrPurrPurrPurrPurrPurr…)
Niles it’s nice to meet you! Eighteen is a mighty ripe old age. I had hoped my brother Angel Sammy would live that long but alas he was needed at the Bridge. Here’s to you my friend – many more happy years ahead we hope!
Hugs, Teddy
