Cairo, the Cat of the Day
Name: Cairo
Age: Fifteen years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Siamese cross
Home: British Columbia, Canada
 
   Hello, this special little guy is Cairo (aka Cai-zee, Cairoski, Pooh-head, Sweet-pea, Spazz) and I have been gladly owned by him for almost fifteen years. Cairo was given to me from my sister as a house-warming gift. He's a rescue kitty from the local Humane Society - I couldn't imagine that anyone didn't want this teeny tiny affectionate bundle of fuzz (he didn't have a thick fur coat for several months) but I'm glad that he came into my life. We bonded almost immediately. Cairo loves other people too but only comes to them on his own terms (as most cats do). He's amazing.

    "Meow" everyone. As you can see my name is Cairo. I am going to be celebrating my 15th birthday soon so I expect that I'll get plenty of tuna or beef flavored treats - my favorite! My human mommy takes good care of me, and I of her. I make sure that she gets up in the morning, I look out the main window to make sure there are no squirrels that might get in her way as she leaves for work and I make sure her lap is warm when relaxing by the TV or reading a book. I used to entertain her a lot more when I was younger... racing around the apartment, playing with string and just making her laugh. Now since I'm older I still entertain but they are limited engagement shows which makes her appreciate it even more. Oh yes, my main job now that I'm a "senior" is keeping the bed warm. It's a tough job but I have to do it. My mommy says I'm the best cat ever!
