Moe, the Cat of the Day
Name: Moe
Age: 22 1/2 years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Turkish Angora
Home: Canoga Park, California, USA
 
   Hi, my name is Moe, or as my Mommy calls me, her Grumpy Old Man. I was born in Mesa, Arizona on May 7, 1988 and moved with my Mommy to Canoga Park one year later. (That makes him 22 1/2 years old - yes, you read that right, he's 22 1/2!!)

    I am very protective of my Mommy, especially guarding her from that new young interloper, Bella, who entered our lives about three months ago after my (sorta) buddy, Pookie, passed away. These days, I love to snuggle with my Mommy at every opportunity. Otherwise, I like sleeping on her bed. Oh, and patrolling my turf and protecting her from Bella, but I mentioned that before.

    When I was a lot younger, I loved to fetch a string or other toys that Mommy threw across the room, but now I just can't be bothered. My beauty rest is much more important. I need all my strength for night-time 'search and destroy' missions around the home. It's hard work being the senior member of the family.

    I also love to sit in the front window and catch the morning rays. I've been known to nap there for long periods. Sunshine feels sooo good.

    I've been experiencing some health problems lately, but who wouldn't at my age! Mommy estimates I'm about 104 in human years. But I tolerate the nasty medications and still love my Mommy. I know she means well, I just reserve the right to kvetch about it... loudly. Well, I'm off to take another nap... or maybe catch some rays... or maybe both.
