Just heard this on Channel 7 news. And we thought WE were crazy about our cat (that's Javier above...adorable, but no religious icons as far as I can see).
Family Claims to See Jesus in Cat Fur
You could call her a holy cat or a feline with Jesus on her side... An Indiana family says if you look closely at their pet, you can see the face of Christ.
Lori Johnson couldn't help but take in two kittens she found abandoned outside her house on mother's day."Oh no, I couldn't imagine giving them away now. I've worked too hard. They are a part of me now. I love being a mom."
The two kittens, brother and sister, now named Sissy and Bubby -- could also be called opposites... the female has striped fur. The male is all black."Maybe one's an angel.. and the other one' is not. Yeah, we have the good and evil."
Recently, Lori's husband was petting sissy when he noticed...
"He says, 'I swear that looks like Jesus with a shroud on' and i'm like 'OK,' and then my son took that picture, and it was like 'wow!'" (search Jesus Cat on google if you want to see the pic -- I couldn't get it to come up here...)
"After looking at the picture and stuff, it was like 'oh, there it is.'"
After a closer look, you might see the "Shroud of Turin."
And even if you don't... "then they might think we are weird crazy or something."
Something this family is fine with. To them, Sissy's fur is a sign from above of joy and blessings to come."We've had a lot of things happen in our lives. This was a good sign that everything's OK and got somebody looking after us."

Well, have you inspected Javi's fur lately? Would you consider listing him on ebay if you find something meaningful in his fur?? Just kidding, of course....he has sure been a good kitty and seems to go with the flow. He probably likes Anthony real well, since so many new boxes have come into the household for him to climb in to!
