Popoki
(Hawaiian for cat) was adopted at two years old (estimated by vet)
and has been with us for almost five years. He's "mostly" a flamepoint
Siamese, who loves sightseeing from the window!
Popoki hid from every one for the first four to five weeks after we adopted
him. He slowly began moving closer and closer to our common space until he
made himself at home. He meows only when hungry or if a neighbor cat comes
to his window. He also has an attitude when you aren't feeding or playing
with him on his terms. He turns his back on you, makes short meow sounds,
and flicks his tail.
He likes to be in the same room as we are, but not too close (unless it's
his idea) Since our cats are always kept indoors, we have a pet stroller for
an occasional outdoor stroll. Poki (as I call him) complains when you put
him in the stroller, but seems to really enjoy all the sights and sounds
around him. He often does somersaults when playing and literally melts when
he gets his (hopefully) daily back massage. He is still afraid of new
voices, the doorbell, and the sound of plastic bags, but boy is he friendly
and loving when he smells a tuna can being opened!
For the past few weeks, he has decided that sleeping in our bedroom at night
is a given, and I honestly think he knows the sound of the clock when it
chimes twelve times (which is when he gets tidbit from my husband's lunch). With
age, he is becoming more affectionate as well (yay), and more of a people cat!
