Soot

Soot is my gray kitty, he is part Russian blue cat, which anyone who has ever met one of these unique cats, know that they have a very unique meow and purr. He is very cute. He was the runt of his litter and his mother ignored him, so I took him and me and Paul gave him a home with us. He was very smart, learning the second day there to use the litter box, and playing happily. Now he is a grown cat at 1 years old. and he still plays with my sister's kitten. He likes to be left alone, but he also loves to sleep on my head, and loves Paul. Him and Paul have a very close connection, and he will always come to Paul and set in his lap and give him hugs and kisses. He doesn't even do that with me!! But its ok, because I understand him and Paul have a different bond. He loved Larry just as much as the rest of the family. And when Larry first became sick and was hospitalized, Soot paced the house meowing for him, and looking in all Larry's sleeping spaces for him. This happened for a about a week after Larry's death. But I think he still misses him. Soot is a very good cat, he understands and listens...most of the time...hahaha. Growing up, Soot was always running through the house, bouncing off the furniture. Then he would grab your ankles when you walked, and drag out socks everywhere. Even after moving we never did find those socks. He loves Opie so much. When he was a baby he would sit and watch Opie and follow him around and drive him crazy. He has a slanted eye, but that just makes him look crazy and more cute. But Soot, doesn't really like to be touched by strangers. He only likes Robbie, my little brothers friend. Everyone else he just wants to sniff and walk in on in the bathroom. And he has a new trick!! He can get the mail, proving once again that Paul is right when he says he has the spirit of a pit bull. We slide the mail though the slot, and say, Kitters( one of his nicknames) get the mail. and he jumps up and gets it and slides it down the wall. It is the cutest thing. Here are some early pictures of Soot, I hope to add some more recent ones as soon as I can get them on the computer.

"Oh yeah mom, well if I don't get your attention, neither does the computer"
