Shrine to SPHINXIE
Sphinxie, the best cat in the world, passed away on September 25, 2002. She is missed!



Sphinxie's final resting place is marked with this stone:



Sphinxie was born just outside of Naples, Italy in November 1990. She lived in Licola, Italy for 3 years, then she moved to Newport, Rhode Island. She also spent some time in Narragansett, Providence, and Kingston, Rhode Island; Somerville, Massachusetts; and Delaware. Her final residence was Highland Park, New Jersey.

Exciting new development! XENA is a part of the family!
Lucky Elvis and Ann-Margret (Sphinxie's half siblings) -- Xena joined the family on December 16, 2003! She was rescued from a shelter. Pictures of Xena:

Sphinxie's name came from the movie When Harry Met Sally... At one point Harry says, "You know, I have a theory that Hieroglyphics are really an ancient comic strip about a character named Sphinxie."

Hobbies: Sphinxie's hobbies included gazing lovingly upon her humans; sleeping in bed with her humans; anxiously awaiting the arrival of her humans; growling at any cats in her space; ignoring her perpetually watery (ala Katharine Hepburn) eye; smelling like talcum powder; and ruling the universe.
