Kev's 3-year-old black cat Ducksolush and her 2 year-old daughter Fripplepips, the Siamese, nap on his chair. Fripplepips's sire was a "pavement special of indistinct breed," says Kev. "Yet the Siamese gene forced its way in, and the litter comprised of only three chocolate point Siamese. I kept the runt and she has turned out to be the most gregarious animal I have ever encountered. She loves playing fetch!"
