Cat Photo Gallery - Cami

UV Rays are bad in the tropics.
We adopted Camillia from the San Francisco SPCA about 14 years ago and promptly shortened her name to Cami. She was 5 years old at the time of adoption. She started cruising with us on our sailboat Gemini on San Francisco bay and adapted well to all situations. In 1999 we left California on the boat and headed south. Cami and her 2 servants have covered 30,000 miles of ocean visiting many countries from Mexico to South America. Her main job is sleeping with who ever is off watch on long passages, and helping the navigator with many comfort issues while assisting the him to navigate toward her food dish. Though she is approaching 20 years of age she is still quite agile and catches the occasional bird, mangrove swallows are not the brightest bird we have encountered. We are presently in hot northern Mexico on the Sea of Cortez and she is enjoying sea food fresh from the ocean. Her servants catch fish pretty good, with a little encouragement from her highness.
You can Google "Cami the Cat" to read more of her adventure on her personal non commercial webpage. She learn to type during one Hurricane season and tell her story of how the cruising life is for her servant and how it is training her crew.
