Elvis, the Cat of the Day
Name: Elvis
Age: Seven years old
Gender: Male
Breed: Cat
Home: Clearwater, Florida, USA
 
   This is Elvis, formerly known as Taz. The cat was renamed as part of the deal to allow him to move in with my girlfriend at the time (now wife). Don't know what type of cat he is and we're guessing he is seven years old. This photo is a favorite because this is when Ripken (the bird) and Elvis first met. They get along great. All Elvis does is sleep.

    The cat learned on his own that the bird was not to be bothered. One day Ripken climbed down from his perch and bit Elvis on the tail. We have never had a problem since then as Elvis stays away from Ripken. Elvis is the calmest cat ever. Nothing disturbs him. Jackie can be face to face with Elvis barking in his face and Elvis will just sit there. Of course Jackie, our dog, just wants to play and finally Elvis will oblige by chasing Jackie around the room. Talk about role reversal... the bird chases the cat... the cat chases the dog!
