Boo Boo, the Cat of the Day
Name: Boo Boo
Age: One and a half years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Cat
Home: Karnack, Texas, USA
 
   This is our cat "Truman" named for Truman Capote, he's also known as "Buddy" (Truman Capote's nickname) but, actually we call him "Boo Boo". That was his predecessor's name. Boo Boo was originally a city cat, when he first came to his new country home last December he ventured a little too far from the house. While exploring his new turf he came in contact with the neighbor's dogs and they chased him up a tree where he stayed for ten days. One of our neighbors, who knew we were looking for our lost kitty noticed his dogs looking up the tree. He realized the dogs had Boo Boo at bay, he helped him down out of the tree and the minute Boo Boo hit the ground he flew home. He was thinner but happy to be back in his own yard.

    He keeps us entertained with his failed attempts to catch squirrels and birds. He is just a little too slow. Boo Boo loves where he lives because he has a big yard with lots of trees and plenty of space to run around and chase things. The most entertaining thing that Boo Boo does is he loves to ride in the golf cart. He enjoys this so much that whenever someone gets in the golf cart and starts it he comes running and jumps up on the seat next to the driver and rides happily around the yard. Boo Boo also likes sleeping on the floor of the shower, an odd choice for a cat, we think. Boo Boo stays up late and loves sleeping in until about noon. He only likes one type of dry cat food and he never overeats. He has short stocky legs, great big paws, and a wonderfully deep and expressive voice. He is just a great cat to have in the family.
