Page 38 2026 Animal Stories Lincoln Daily News February 2026 Not quite true to his name, Angus was actually the smallest cat of his litter. He was also very sick. He had ear mites and worms in his stomach and intestines. We were given several medicines to give him. He did not want to eat the first couple of days, leaving his food untouched and worrying us about his health. After the second day of the medicine, however, his appetite appeared with a fury, and that cat has not stopped eating since. We will often have to monitor both cats during feeding time to make sure Angus does not kick Moo out of her bowl so he can eat her food too. Angus definitely grew into his name, however. He became a very large cat, but not really overweight. He is incredibly strong for a cat, and at the last vet appointment we took him to, weighed just over 18 pounds. Moo and Angus could not be more different personality wise. Angus is very laid back, choosing to nap throughout the day or come around to get some pets. Moo, on the other hand, while she does like pets, loves to run around and play. She is always very curious, always trying to get into things that she should not. Like anyone, we love our pets and only want the best for them. They are a part of our family, not just an animal living in our home. The Boutcher house would not be the same without Moo and Angus. Moo & Angus
