Ernie [Byrne]

Ernie is a lovebug. He HAS to be with you - either laying next to you or in your lap. I started out calling his name Ernie. That molded into Ernie Bernie. Then I have called him Byrne [Bern] for most of his life. That is what he comes to and likes to be called.
Byrne had a very swollen right eye one Sunday when he was a kitten. It was so big. He was taken to our animal ophthalmologist quickly and she saved his eye. Ever since, his eye weeps a bit, but it is no problem. Byrne is very talkative and loves to play with toys and other cats.
