Sam, the Cat of the Day
Name: Sam
Age: Three and a half years old
Gender: Male
Breed: American Shorthair
Home: Baltimore, Maryland, USA
 
   This is my cat, Sam (full name, Koonyak Samuel Clemens). He is a three and a half years old American Shorthair neuter. He lives in Baltimore, Maryland and is a show cat. Sam is a Quadruple Grand Champion in the American Cat Fanciers Association. Sam is a really sweet cat and I love him to death. This picture was used as my Christmas card last year and Sam really tolerated the Santa Suit so well.

    Sam likes to pray for things. When he wants to get up on the counter, he stands on his hind legs, puts his front paws together and waves them up and down, looking like he is praying! He does this for everything he wants. It is so funny to watch. Sam is also a very spoiled cat. He usually always gets his way and if he doesn't want to do something, he will let you know under no uncertain terms. He gets get along very well with my other cats (three Maine Coons and a domestic longhair). Sam is a purebred American Shorthair and sometimes people confuse this with a domestic shorthair. He is a silver tabby, which is the most common color that ASH's come in. All silver tabbies must have green eyes and Sam's are quite a stunning color of green.
