Puffin, the Cat of the Day
Name: Puffin
Age: Eighteen years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Domestic longhair cat
Home: New Richmond, Ohio, USA
 
   I'm Puffin, and I'm wearing my signature glowering look. That's because I'm eighteen years old and I still don't get the respect I deserve. Never have. But I keep expecting it anyway. I'm originally from Michigan, and I went through quite a string of human "owners" before I finally settled on my permanent family here in southern Ohio. They're fairly dimwitted, as most humans are, but they're reasonably obedient.

    I was quite the adventurer in my youth, but these days I tend to spend more time on whatever chair I'm currently using as my throne. Since looking regal comes naturally to me, I can use almost anything as a pedestal where you can adore me.

    One of my specialties is wrapping strangers around my paw. I can bash their ankles and look cute to the point that even people who don't normally like cats will start looking for something they can give me as a treat. I've had humans figured out since I was three months old. Come to think of it, you'd like to give me a treat right now, wouldn't you? They're on the second shelf from the top, where I can't reach them by myself. How about it, hmmmm?
