I am a 14 year old female American Shorthair Tabby cat.
I was rescued as a kitten by Shawna and given to her sister, Erica. I lived with Erica and Robert for 5 years and enjoyed
beating up on their dog, Bear. Erica couldn't take the allergy shots anymore so she asked me to move back with Shawna. That
was fine with me because Bear was just getting on my nerves. Erica still comes to visit me sometimes and we catch up
on the telephone now and then. I believe I am very intelligent- I am bilingual, speaking both feline and canine, I know
how to open lever handle doors, I am great at boxing, and although I have no claws, I have successfully done away with pesky
birds and mice.
I lost my claws as a result of having to move. It is
a weird story, but when I was little, I lived in an apartment with Erica that had "No Cats Allowed" rules. I liked looking
out the windows and eventually got Erica caught and thrown out. The only place to stay was her parents' house or
the animal shelter. But the parents said I wasn't allowed to claw anything. So there went my claws. I do
NOT recommend anyone having this done. It was absolutely horrible and I am still sensitive about anyone touching my
feet. I am the top cat in this house because of my size and brute strength. I can thump VERY hard!
Merawr!

Shawna
This is my human, Shawna. I love her sooo much. She cleans
my bathroom for me, feeds me my favorite canned food every day and even gives me a tablespoon of Catsip brand milk for breakfast
every morning. I have her well trained. She plays fetch with me and baits the bird feeders for me so I have entertainment
at all times.
Simon Zoom Zoom Smiledon
This is Simon, who moved in with us on Shawna's birthday which she shares with me. The
people across the street, catty-corner, moved away and abandoned him. He was really sick so Shawna took him in to
save his life. He is a Lynx Point Snow Shoe Siamese. (and I hate him!)

Mandy
This is Mandy. She is about 4 months old and Dan let her in to cheer up Shawna after Amber disappeared.
She actually gets along with Simon pretty good.

Catsip Brand Milk
My "babies" which are made from puff balls with
leather string legs.
Shadows- I love to watch them
Bird Feeders- I enjoy jumping at the window and scaring
the birds away. They always come back for more- it's our game.

Here is a nice picture of Mikey. Shawna wanted to name him Cyrano de BergerCat (Bergerac)
but got tired of trying to explain the joke so the name Mike just stuck.
Dan
This is my other human, Dan. He may look rough and tough but he talks
to me when he thinks Shawna isn't listening. He is also a very good doorman, letting me in and out whenever I want.

Marlee
Marlee and I mostly tolerated each other. I could never tell if she was playing
or fighting so I avoided her unless I wanted some excitement.
Shawna captured her in a live squirrel trap when she was a feral kitten and it took
a long time to tame her.
She died January 2008 after being diagnosed with cancer. She was almost 13.
