Rudy the newest member of the family. A small female, she was named Rudy by my daughter after the star of the movie "Rudy" (and despite the fact that she was female). She is an extraordinarily affectionate cat, but at the same time loves to romp outdoors,and begs to go out at least three times of day, even in the dead of winter. She always returns, although sometimes after dark. Her favorite entrance/exit is through the kitchen window, as shown in the first few photos here.
