Lil Girl, the Cat of the Day
Name: Lil Girl
Age: Seventeen years old
Gender: Female
Kind: Domestic Longhair
Home: Germantown, Tennessee, USA
 
   I'm a special Lil Girl. I'm in charge of my home. I have to make sure my Daddy is up for work each morning and I watch my grandma during the day to make sure she is okay when the house is quiet. My family understands me and rushes to my call when I speak even though I'm demanding at times. I love to walk with a leash and enjoy the flowers and birds outside. I'm lucky that I'm loved so much.

    Lil Girl indeed is very special. Of all the cats I've ever had she has been a combination of them all. Lil Girl has been raised as a member of the family since she was three weeks old. Her personality is more human rather than a cat. Her affection is shown more in human ways than in feline ways. She rubs her snout along side your face and ears and sleeps cuddled nearby. In the winter she enjoys sleeping under the covers along side you.

    Lil Girl has never done the traditional leg rubbing. She has her own special chairs in each room of the house. She is very disciplined and doesn't jump on tables, curtains or any unwanted areas. She has been raised from birth and is truly well behaved. Friends of the family have been amazed by her disposition. In her more playful years she would return a rolled up piece of paper. She also enjoys playing with string and yarn. She seems to have taken up the responsibility of waking me up each morning. Each morning she continues to call me until she is assured I won't fall back to sleep. She has yet to recognize weekends. Once up she will return to bed. After I'm ready for work she will follow me downstairs for her morning snack or merely wait for her breakfast in bed. She knows that I won't leave until she gets that last so-long and see you later. She has become very possessive and clearly demands her time. She enjoys her daily walk outside and walk catnap in her catnip patch. She attempts to stop any emotional arguments by approaching close to my face and speaking loudly. She has been a truly amazing member of our family and, better yet, an unconditional friend.
