So, yes, been away from the blog a few days.

Monday we drove about 550 miles between going for Hexapuma the new coon cat (driving to Oneonta from Albany and coming on home from Oneonta) and Tuesday was something of catching up on lots of details all around and talking to the folks in Waterville with the office to let, again, about the space they have for lease.

What does Hexapuma look like? He's only two, so he doesn't have full growth yet, but he kind of looks like:

and at 11 pounds plus he looks fairly big...

Oh yeah. Spent parts of the rest of the week looking at and fiddling with leases; yesterday we signed on a small office in not-quite-downtown Waterville. The landlord will have a cleaning crew getting in over the weekend and will do some minor repairs as well; we may actually be able to start moving things in by the end of next week. Meanwhile, watch for a moving-in sale from SRM...

More as we have time...

Is he a Blue Blaze cat?

Blue Blaze Sphinxian Hexapuma, to be exact.

As was pointed out in rolanni's thread, though, I hope you got a discount - he's missing two legs! :o)

I hope that this one is less aggressive and ill-tempered than the original Sphinxian ones as well, I would rather not have the authors dismembered!

What's a Hexapuma? My Webster's New Collegiate doesn't answer this burning question . . .

Thanks. I think I have read maybe one Honor Harrington book, which probably used a different locale.

I don't remember any mention of hexapumas before the first anthology in the Honorverse. Treecats, to which they are distantly related, do appear in several of the books (but may not be in all of them; the Wikipedia article on them says that at the time of the first book there may not have been more than 16 of them in the whole navy, so they certainly weren't on every ship).
