I’ve always had pets: cats or dogs usually… and I’ve always loved them…
But this is the craziest cat I’ve ever had, Frankie. And I’m talking evil-crazy. One day I’m stirring from my sleep - I was in college at the time. I open one eye and see Frankie sitting 12 inches away on my bed, staring at me with that demented look he had. I start getting nervous, but I stick to the staring contest. Finally I blink and Frankie charges towards me, towards my eye, mouth open with his little fangs showing. And his teeth wrap around my eye socket!! In the alarm and chaos I grab him and fling him across the room where he runs away.
A few weeks later I have a party and one of my friends, Mike, takes a liking to Frankie. I explain that he’s cracked, but Mike doesn’t care. He even indicates he would take him home if I wanted. I give him my blessing, and so off Frankie went, to a new home, and to new people to terrorize.
I give you… Frankie:

hello, I met you in portland a few weeks back around the pearl, and I figured I’d take a look at your website, I really admire your style, there’s a sense of narrative in your work that I love. Just wanted to say that this “frankie” pic is awesome.

I would definitely give up a cat that bit my eye.
