Fatty Fat Fat, at table 2015-04-23 - Indianapolis, IN - Photo by Beth Ann Cravens. Fatty Fat Fat is one of my Mom, Jean Cravens' outdoor pets. He's enjoying a little snack on a rainy day on our window ledge. F.F. Fat is an accomplice of Tonto, the impatient squirrel which pecks on the glass window when breakfast isn't served when it/she/he wants it. These Hoosierlings - F.F. and Tonto - appear to have more sense than a cat, are just as entertaining, are less of a nuisance as long as they stay out of the house, and are a tad more grateful for the blessings they receive than all but the hungriest, nearly starving cats. Thanks to my niece, Beth Ann Cravens, for sharing the picture and the information. Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
