Mika, the Cat of the Day
Name: Mika
Age: Ten weeks old
Gender: Female
Kind: Blue Lynx-Point Siamese
Home: USA
 
   Mika (pronounced Mee-kah) is the most beautiful, cuddly and playful cat I have ever met! She loves to play with my two older, more "distinguished" cats, who sometimes play too (but only when no one is watching!). She will play with anything, from pipe cleaners to mouse toys to the dog's identification tags. But when she's tired she can always find a warm lap to curl up on - it may even be the dog's! She'll do anything to get to that lap, too, she climbs our legs with her little claws, then scrambles up into our arms. She loves to sleep on the dog bed with our boxer Daisy, who is a bit wary- our older cats love chasing the dog.

    Whenever we come home Mika always greets us at the door with her shrill meows, begging to be cuddled. We found her through an aunt's friend, who breeds her Siamese cat Gracie. At first it was just a visit to cuddle and play with the new kittens, but we ended up taking Mika home with us! When one friend met our new addition, she loved her so much she went and bought her two sisters, one for her (Twinkie) and one for her parents (Suki). Another friend met Mika as well and bought her brother (Lynx)! All the siblings are healthy, happy kitties, all they all share the same loves: people (especially sleeping under the covers and chewing on their toes at 4:30 AM), dogs and play. Her favorite foods include anything on the floor, but she has finer tastes as well: sauteed salmon, meatloaf, broiled swordfish, tuna steaks, canned tuna, and any food that's not hers!
