Pikoka, the Cat of the Day
Name: Pikoka
Age: Ten years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Cat
Home: São Paulo, São Paulo, Brasil
 
   This is our beautiful kitten Pikoka. He was found in our garden in August of 1999. We already had two other cats at that time, so we were reluctant to keep him. The one who decided we should keep him was my grandmother, who was hospitalized because of a stroke a few months later, and then unfortunately died. Pikoka, by that time, had become too important to our family to ever think of giving him away.

    Over time, he has become much more important to our family. He is playful and cheerful, but has had some troubles. He broke his right rear leg, twice in the same place, so has undergone two surgeries, he still limps when he walks, but he can run hard to escape the bathroom if someone is about to close the door. Some time later, being all white and loving to lay in the strong Brazilian sun, he had cancer in both ears and it was necessary to remove the tips, but he still remains great to this day, just has a more unique look to him now. Currently, he is the oldest of the four family cats, and he is respected by all. Our family hopes you all enjoy the history of our beloved Pikoka. Feliz Natal, everyone!
