Hi,
I'm Big Guy. My two-legged mom says I got that name because when I was
younger, I was so little that the name was kind of ironic. I don't know what
that means, but I know I did grow into that name because now I really am a big guy.
My four-legged mom is a Persian but I never met my dad. My four-legged mom says she
only met him just the one time when my two-legged mom was at camp, whatever that
means. When I was born thirteen years ago, my two-legged Mom and Grandma thought I
went to kitty heaven because my fur was so light, I had no color and wasn't
moving. Mom even started crying because she was only twelve years old and it was
hard on her. I couldn't stand to see her so upset so I started wiggling,
squirming and meowing and then she was so happy!
As I was growing up, I followed my two-legged mom around the ping pong table for
hours. My short little legs prevented me from going very fast, so she would
wait on me to catch up. Before we knew it, I was fifteen pounds and was the man of
the house, playing rough with the neighbor cat, Oreo, every chance I got.
As you can see from my dashing photos, I really like fresh water. If it's been
sitting in the bowl for more than a few hours then I check to see if the sink
or tub was left on. Then, sometimes it feels so cool I take a nap in it.
Now, at thirteen years old, I enjoy curling up next to my two-legged mom at night. She
says it relaxes her and I notice her smile every time. I have a great life down
here in Lakeland, Florida, I really can't complain. If you've never been this
far south then you're missing out on the abundance of lizards to chase, not
to mention the warm weather. I am thankful they didn't give up on me. I just
love sunbathing, even in Winter... Life is Good!
