Barbarino, along with his brother, Vinnie, were named after Vinnie Barbarino - John Travolta's breakout role in the TV sitcom "Welcome Back Kotter". We adopted the littermates shortly after Norm's Mom, Bertha came to live with us. Bertha loved the boys, called them "pooches", and gave us a running commentary of their actions daily. Sadly we lost Vinnie when he was only five, but Babarino lived to the ripe old age of 18. He was one of the sweetest cats that ever lived and I miss him to this day. If you have lost a beloved pet, I can memorialize him or her for you with a beautiful portrait.
