Pepe
(we call him Pep for short) is a seventeen-year old Maine Coon cat who was
rescued out of an abandoned apartment as a kitten by a true animal
lover. Pep makes his home in the Barbecue Capital of the World,
Lexington, North Carolina. Pep is a very serious cat, and his defining
characteristic is his "browl", a loud meow which he does mostly in the
middle of the night, in our hallway, at decibels equaling a loud human
shout. Last year, at Christmas, we wrote lyrics to 12 Christmas carols
about Pep's browling, and performed them to the amusement of our family
(but not to Pep, who was most indignant). We're hoping for a record
deal... hey, if the Jingle Cats people can do it ...
Pep is a Daddy's boy, and doesn't have much to do with his stepmama or
younger sibling, Vivi, a black and white standard housecat. His other
nicknames include The Pepster, Pepto-Bismol, Pepperoni Pizza, Peptic
Ulcer, Pepcid AC, and Shut Up You Dang Cat (that one is usually used
at 2:15 am). Pep loves his Auntie Maria, who rarely comes to see him,
and so he wrote her a love letter.
