Orielle, the Cat of the Day
Name: Orielle
Age: Two and a half years old
Gender: Female
Kind: Cat
Home: Eau Claire, Wisconsin, USA
 
   Mademoiselle Orielle Madalena de la Luna is called Orielle for short. Her name roughly translated from Spanish and French means Miss Ear Muffin of the Moon. My husband and I saved Orielle from certain death at the pound. We picked her as a companion for our three-legged cat, TRI-POD. We chose her because she was deaf. We thought that if she was handicapped like TRI-POD she would make a good companion. Unfortunately, she has made his house into her castle, and she bosses him around all of the time. On a more positive note, Orielle loves to be vacuumed. She also enjoys riding the vacuum sometimes. She is not afraid of it like most cats due to her disadvantaged ear condition. She also enjoys licking and playing with plastic bags. If she finds a plastic bag while were not looking, she will walk around with the handle around her neck, wearing it like a cape. We try to hide them all plastic bags from her because we are afraid she will hurt herself. Orielle also loves being outside, so we let her roam around when we are with her. Whenever we let her out of the door, she immediately throws herself to the ground and rubs her body all over the cement and grass, then gets mad because she is dirty.
