Hi!
My name is Chester, or as I am sometimes called: Chester the
Investor, Chester Wester, Chester the '60s Protester. I am a big, strong
cat. You can't hold me down. Even though I don't have front claws, I
have back ones that can get me out of anything! I like to give my Mom a
neck massage when she is in bed. I purr very loudly while I'm massaging.
My Mom says that I could get a job as a masseuse, I'm so good.
I always greet my Mom at the door when she comes home from work. That
way I am first at the dinner table. I love tuna and chicken, and will
lay down on the table until I get some.
I'm a playful guy. One of my most fun things to do is to jump from the
floor to try and get the spider plant that hangs down from the ceiling.
I have made some nice claw marks on the wall in the dining room on
occasions when I have missed the plant. Even though I don't really like
being held, if you hold me up the spider plant, I'll be your best
friend. Another favorite trick of mine is to sneak out of the house
whenever someone opens a door. I am very quiet and sneak out before
anyone notices. Of course, when I get caught, I run right back inside.
I love paper bags and boxes. You can always find me inside a bag,
crumpling up a bag, or making a nest in a box. I like to get in the bags
even if they still have groceries in them. When someone is going on a
trip, I will also pack myself right in the suitcase or duffel bag. I
hate being left home with just my kitty sisters Zoey and Felix for
company.
I'm getting older, and have had some major health challenges. Last year
I had to have one of my kidneys removed as a tumor was growing inside of
it. I had to go to a specialist for an ultrasound and another one for
the surgery. Then, recently I had to have a cyst removed from my
forehead. I am fine now, though, thanks for asking.
