Jonah, the Cat of the Day
Name: Jonah
Age: Four years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Tabby
Home: Ardmore, Tennessee, USA
 
   This is my cat Jonah. He is a four years old black/gray tabby. He is such a special cat for so many reasons. The main reason that he is so special to me is because I actually raised Jonah on a bottle from the day he was born. He was sick when he was born and his mother deserted him. I took him in and fed him on a bottle. I did not think he was going to survive at first because he was so sick and weak. I illegally raised him in my college apartment. I had to sneak him in and out of the apartment every weekend when I went back home. Everyone on campus knew I had a cat except for the Resident Advisor! I feel very close to him because I have literally been his Mama from day one.

    Jonah is no longer the small, sick and weak little kitten that he used to be. He now weighs over fifteen pounds but is still just as much of a baby as he ever was. He sleeps with my husband and I every night and now keeps a close eye on our own baby. This picture of Jonah was taken in our baby's cradle. Jonah was a bit jealous at first of the new baby but not anymore. They are getting to be great friends. I know that Jonah is not a full-blooded cat with papers and all but to us he is worth all the money in the world. We think he is the greatest.
