Pepper, the Cat of the Day
Name: Pepper
Age: Sixteen months old
Gender: Female
Kind: British Spotted Shorthair
Home: Salt Lake City, Utah, USA
 
   We adopted Pepper from the Humane Society six months ago after Snickers, our ferret, a very old and dear member of our family, passed away. We also have a cat, Mr. B, he was very close to Snickers and seemed quite depressed. We were worried about Mr. B, and my fiance (who is very very allergic to cats) suggested that we adopt a kitten, hoping that Mr. B would have a new friend. Pepper and Mr. B took a couple of weeks to get used to each other, but now they are loving companions and playmates. Pepper has helped mend all of our hearts. She fills our lives with joy, love and affection every day.

    Pepper is an adorable kitty, however we believe that she may have been a dog in a past life or that she thinks she's a dog in this one. We bought her a small mouse shaped toy that rattles, when we throw it she catches it in mid air and then brings it back and drops it at our feet for us to throw again, and again, and again until we wear out. She's very social, and loves to be around us all the time. Pepper loves to talk, once I found her lying on her back in a patch of sunlight, just talking away. she talks to us in cute little mews, each one with different voice inflictions, and when we talk to her she stares at us as if she's concentrating really hard to understand exactly what we're saying before she replies. We could go on for hours about what makes her so special to us, but we could never put into words how much she has meant to our little family.
