MY MOTTO:
"A cat can never be too pampered!"

Most of the advice on this site came from me
since I'm the smartest!
Need proof?
Well, the day my Mom came to the shelter
I "persuaded" her to choose me.
As she looked in all the cages I was
pretty much out of sight.
Those of you who have ever spent time in a shelter know
that the more "animated/vocal" residents get noticed first
and the bigger guys will sometimes
sit on the smaller ones
to keep us hidden. Well, it almost worked!
She had decided on another kitten
(not a good choice, I might add)
when I suddenly found the courage I thought I lacked.
I climbed out from under that feline "pig pile"
and stuck my paw through the cage.
She took one look at the double paw that I extended
and she was sold!
(You see, she's a pushover for polydactyl cats
and at that moment I silently thanked my own Mom
for blessing me with these big mitts.)
Off we went to my new home where I promptly took over.

I'm a "diluted tortie".
(Not to be confused with "deluded"
so watch the spelling!)
It's the ONLY thing that I have in common with Sybil.
However, she's an ordinary "tortie"
with yucky black, orange and beige fur
while MY fur is a gorgeous grey and cream.
I'm very quiet - I rarely make a sound - but that's only
because my beauty leaves me speechless!

When I get bored sitting quietly
(contemplating my perfection)
I love to play.
Therefore, the CHILDREN - PROCEED WITH CAUTION! page
is my favorite.

PAW HERE TO SEE IT!
