Jeoffrey, the Cat of the Day
Name: Jeoffrey
Age: Two and a half years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Cat
Home: Bowling Green, Kentucky, USA
 
   No doubt about it, Jeoffrey has charisma. A feral kitten, he charmed the whole block of townhouses where he lived his first year. Although the residents couldn't take him in, most placed small shelters and food stations on their stoops, so he had many little kitty condos when weather was bad. A friend who lived in the complex knew we had just lost our beloved mixed tabby, and insisted that I come and meet this little guy. From the time he sauntered around the corner, I was smitten - and when he came right to my feet and rolled over to present his gorgeous tabby tummy for a scratch, I was slain. He went straight to the vet, where he endured the necessary medical indignities with such good nature that the whole staff also became his doting fans. Even now, he cheerfully jumps into his carrier to go for shots, because he knows he'll be greeted with a chorus of delighted cries of "Jeoffrey!" and great attention and patting. At home he wrestles happily with his senior associate, Kittredge, avidly watches wildlife outside, and generally wastes our time by providing nonstop entertainment. Even when he's not doing anything, he makes us smile.
