Q-Tip, the Cat of the Day
Name: Q-Tip
Age: Deceased, Nine and a half years old
Gender: Female
Kind: Domestic Short-Hair
Home: Santa Clarita, California, USA
 
   Q-Tip was a very intelligent cat who understood a number of words and phrases (e.g. "Get the bug", "Do you want up/down?," "Fetch," and more). When she was very small, she played tag and hide-and-seek with my husband and was even willing to play fetch. Of course, when she grew up and realized she was a cat for Pete's sake, she came to her kitty senses and refused to play that game anymore. As a more mature cat, she preferred to spend most her time riding on my shoulder. She kept me from being late for work many times when I slept through the alarm by gently patting my face with her paw (or nibbling my ear) until I woke up. I could always tell what she wanted just by looking at her! She was very spoiled (just look at that queenly pose!!) and was the 'only child' for many years.
