Maysle

As some of you know, our awesome kitty Werner passed away earlier this month from a rare kitten disease. It was heartbreaking. We had only had him for about three months, but he was the first addition to our family and he was truly a special cat. Frail and small, but he had a huge heart.

It’s been almost a month since then, and we decided we sure missed a little furball running around our house so we went ahead and adopted another kitten from PAWS. Maysle saw me walking by his cage and immediately reached out to me. I’m pretty sure we were fated to be together. He’s adorable, soft and precocious. And yes, we continue the trend of naming out pets after our favorite filmmakers… we are nerds, after all.

  • So sorry to hear about Vern, but glad you found Maysle! What a sweetie. I'm embarrassed to admit that I didn't even know who the Maysles brothers were even though I'm old enough to know. :-)

  • I used to wait on Albert Maysles daughter at TLA Video sometimes. I never discussed their documentaries with her.

  • Grey Gardens. So amazing.

  • Yeah, Helen loves that one. I was a little disappointed in the additional material that came out a few years ago. My personal favorite is Salesman.
