Theo, the Cat of the Day
Name: Theo
Age: Seven months old
Gender: Male
Kind: Chartreux
Home: San Francisco, California, USA
 
   Theo was sent to me after my beloved all grey domestic cat passed away Spike. I was very apprehensive getting a cat this way but I read about the characteristic's of the Chartreux breed and they sounded so much like my cat Spike who passed away. He was flown from Texas to San Francisco to meet me. When I picked him up from the airport he was in the cat carrier and I couldn't believe my eyes. He was so beautiful and he was rubbing his face against the carrier bars and purring. It was love at first sight. When I brought him home the breeder said that he may be a little scared and hide under the bed but he never hide once. It was almost like he had been here before and he quickly covered every square inch of my apartment. I didn't know how Theo and I were going to get along but we have become very good buddies. I can't seem to restrain myself from petting him for more than five minutes. His breed the Chartreux is supposed to be mute but Theo's meow box works very well. He is many things shy at times, very loving at other times and also independent. He sleeps with me on the bed by my side in this bunny rabbit position quite often. There is nothing more adorable when he is in a loving mood and he looks up at you with those gorgeous harvest moon eyes. Melt, Melt!!!
