Whiteface is the official CCC Mascot. I know computers and cats are a very strange combination... but they are my 2 passions. Every good company, even if it is an unofficial thing like CCC, needs a mascot!

Whiteface is my cat in real life. I got her from a homeless man named Moses in octoberish 2004. He was the one who named her. She used to be really wild, but eventually got fixed, and mellowed out.

In June 2005 she gave birth to a litter of 4 beautiful kittens. The father was a random cat in the wild. There were two tigers, a black one, and a broken white/blue one like her. We named the tigers Billy Jean and Tigger. The black one was not very smart, so my mom named it "Retard". The broken one I named Travis after my friend Travis.

Tigger and Billy Jean we gave away to people. Noone wanted Retard, so we kept him. Travis (my friend) wanted Travis (the cat) but he ended up not being able to keep him, so we kept him too. Travis (the cat) became like my best friend. We would run out in the backyard together and play. Stay up late at night and play with feathers. Sleep at night together. Retard always got into fights with other cats, and was considered my brother's cat.

This all ended shortly after his first birthday... on the day of my open house for graduation. While I was in the shower, Cory came running in saying they found travis and he wasn't moving. My day was pretty much ruined. I say outside and cried for awhile, lol. He was alive, but he couldnt move his back legs. We took him to the vet, and he said that he probably got into a bad fight with a racoon or something, and lost control of his back end. He eventually was able to walk again.. But his tail fell off, and er, well, he was an outside cat after that.

One day about 7 months later, he just never came back.. so we're assuming he is dead. Weeks later, we found Retard in the road, dead. He was ran over. Two days later, my old cat, Tooter died from being old. Three months later, Tooter's daughter, Snoop, died from being old too. Needless to say, I am extremely emotionally drained by all of this. Unfortunately, my dad wont let me get another kitten, so I am a very sad panda, hahah. He says when I can get a job and pay for it myself, I can have a kitten, so this is my goal!
