Tygi, the Cat of the Day
Name: Tygi
Age: Eight months old
Gender: Female
Kind: Tabby
Home: Wallington, New Jersey, USA
 
   I never had a cat before, and I never thought that I would have one either. My son has an asthma so I was afraid to get any pets besides our Betta Fish, Dudek. All of a sudden a lot of my friends adopted kittens and I was so jealous seeing them. Once I was talking about it at work and one of the patients overheard me. Next day he brought me a kitten. It was so small but very strong and curious. That first day she had to take such a journey home with me. I work in New York so I had to take her first on the subway , then on the bus - all in the paper box. She was making lots of noise, trying escape so everybody was watching me... My kids were so surprised because they never suspected we would ever have a "real "pet. The best part? My son does not have any allergic reactions to her!

    Tygi has the softest and the shiniest fur I ever touched- maybe she is a Bengal? She loves to play hide and seek and catch. She waits for us by the door when she hears a car in the driveway. My cat is so social- she follows us everywhere around the house and seats with the guests. Our Betta fish is her dear friend. She spends hours watching it and the only water she drinks is from his fishbowl. We all love her!
