Buster, the Cat of the Day
Name: Buster
Age: Eight months old
Gender: Male
Kind: Silver Tabby
Home: Toronto, Ontario, Canada
 
   When we heard he was the last kitten left of the litter, we went to look at him with skepticism. When I met him, the first thing he did was rub his little wet nose on mine, and snuggled in my arms like I was his Mom. I fell in love!

    Buster comes when he is called, runs around the house like a madman, and likes to play with us until he gets so excited and out of breath that he starts to dry heave. He brings his favorite toy to us when we get home, and put it down and lets out these crazy long long meows! He loves the outdoors, and has escaped twice already...we have been so lucky to recover him, thanks to our amazing neighbors who keep finding him on their roof, nine houses down the street!

    Buster likes to play a "hunting" game which consists of us hiding behind something (even works if we cover our face with a hand) and remove the hand and he is one step closer. Every time you look up he's totally still, but one step closer to you ... until he is very close to you and then he likes to pounce on you! Also, he has a love for human food: once he got a hold of a diner plate on the counter and ate an entire diner of salmon, green beans and mashed potatoes! He is always alert and first at the front door, gives kitty love to all our guests, and makes everyone laugh with his extra long body and extra long meow, and his endless supply of head budding and nose licking. He seems intuitive when something is wrong and will snuggle up in my arms when I need it most, and this is the most important reason I love him so much.
