Alice, the Cat of the Day
Name: Alice
Age: Nine months old
Gender: Female
Kind: Cat
Home: Tustin, California, USA
 
   May I present Alice the cat. As with most cats she also has a long list of unofficial names given to her by her Mom (my daughter). Alley-poo, Little Princess, Precious, Kitten kitten and "Pew! Who did that!" are among the others. She is a pound rescue picked out as a little kitten. My wife chose her because while all the other kittens were wrestling with each other, Alice just laid in a ray of sunlight enjoying the warmth. While not much of a talker to begin with she now announces herself with a "Perrtt!" followed by a very ungraceful plop as she falls to one side so we may be able to bask in her elegance.

    She is not much of a lap cat but on occasion you may wake up in the middle of the night to find her crammed into a crevice somewhere against your body, and just a slight touch while she is sleeping will set the Purr Machine into overdrive. She does not know her place yet in this house for she has two older brothers who outweigh her by ten fold but that doesn't stop her from wanting to use them as practice for the great lizard hunt that takes place in the back yard on warm, sunny days, (Supervised of course ). She also has an older sister that she teases from time to time. During her evening "I'm going nuts" routine of running around the upstairs of our home, she does a very good impersonation of a thunderstorm and sometimes even a locomotive passing by.

    All in all, she is a welcome addition to our household. Now someone get me a lint roller!
