Hi!
Thanks for sharing!
I've always had cats in my life, my current cat is named George and he's 7.
He cracks me up in that he's a total user and gets me to do exactly what he requires, namely feed him when he wants food and not much else
He's probably the most laziest cat I've ever known, oscillating between food bowl and couch!
He's black but has the odd grey hair too, probably as a result of living with me. I originally got him for my daughter when she was 12 but... she soon became bored with her kitten and I took over all responsibility.
He is a character and I find myself saying "Morning Cat" when I get up, to which he meows in return usually followed by a walk over to his food bowl with a swish of the tail. He's also fairly timid but seems to warm to other people, usually females. Perhaps it's just me. That said, he is also very placid and hasn't ever once bit or scratched me which for me and cats is a definite first.
Notice any patterns here!? ;0)
