Jordi, the Cat of the Day
Name: Jordi
Age: Eleven months old
Gender: Male
Breed: Cat
Home: Givatayim, Israel
 
   Jordi is a mixed breed - seems to have a bit of Siamese due to nature and kink in tail, and a bit of Maine Coon by his looks.

    I fell in love with Jordi the minute I saw him as a six week old kitten - a compact ball of fur! Today he is a real hunk and the master of his and my domain! I grew up with dogs all my life and was always a dog person - Jordi became my first cat and since then my life has changed completely. He's really crazy cat - not scared of anything, including the 5 cm-thick washing line hanging over above from the third floor! He doesn't allow anyone to hold or stroke him, he thinks these signs of affection are a start for play time! It's taken me time, but I've learned to live with this hard fact of life! But, he shows his affection in other ways.

    My day always begins at 6:30am with Jordi pawing at my face! When I arrive home, he recognizes my car alarm before I get upstairs and waits for me at the door meowing like crazy (I think in cat lingo its "where is my dinner already!" He loves me coming home with lots of shopping bags - nothing can be packed away unless he has made a full inspection of the day's purchases! Every hour or so he suddenly gets an energy jolt (source unknown) darting and scampering all around the place, making squealing noises, grabbing my ankles, and ambushing me from every corner. I've learned never to leave the toilet paper hanging from its container (not even 2 mm) otherwise my apartment looks like Times Square on New Year's! The only time I can make up a bed is while he is eating. And never lie on the bed with your toes hanging over the edge! The antics go on and on!
