Harley and Finnigan, the Cat of the Day
Name: Harley, Finnigan
Age: Two and a half years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Tabby mix
Home: Port Hood, Nova Scotia, Canada
 
   Harley and Finnigan are brothers born March 1st, 2001. They were born under an old house in the cold month of March. Their mother took such good care of them, she had been living under the house all winter after having gotten lost in one of the many storms, it was one of the worst winters in a long time. People living in the house were giving her food, but they weren't staying there long, so tried to find a home for her. When I heard about all this it was just one cat. I had just lost one of my three cats, to illness (she was fourteen years old.) So said I would take her. Then found out there were two more!! So now we have five cats.

    There are so many things that make them special, Harley is a big baby and trusts us like no other cat I have known. He will ride in my little wheel barrel, when I use it to carry plants back and forth, I can carry him downstairs in the laundry basket and he won't jump out. When I have toast and jam they both have to have a strawberry for breakfast.

    Finnigan likes to be picked up a lot and if he is upstairs he will cry for someone to go up and carry him down. When he wants to be picked up he goes to "dad" and stretches his paws up to him, he bends down and tells Finnigan to lift his back leg and place it in his hand and then he will pick him up. They both pick on the two older cats and Harley will sneak up on them when they are sleeping and put his paw out as to touch them then draws it back if they move, he will continue until he actually touches them and they wake up. They love to play with their toys and with each other.
