Janie, the Cat of the Day
Name: Janie
Age: Ten years old
Gender: Female
Kind: Norwegian Forest Cat Mix
Home: Pawtucket, Rhode Island, USA
 
   Jane Ackerman (we called her that because she's an athletic leaper, ala Tarzan, but she's a girl, so, well, you get it. And the Ackerman part is a long story.) was a stray. We think she's about 9-10. She is, in the words of many a vet, a "pretty girl." She falls asleep when you look at her. She can do (some very minor) tricks. She snores, and if that wasn't enough (hey, we'd never heard of a snoring cat, and we imagine most of the rest of the world hasn't either), she is prone to emitting squeaks like a rusty hinge. Incredibly sweet disposition for a cat that was abandoned and before that, probably abused, and she was good company for our other cat, an 18-year-old DSH who just passed away in April. She's clumsy and somewhat bipolar (one second she's afraid of the pattern in the linoleum, and the next she's as curious as, well, a cat). We give her a 9.5 overall.
