Morsel, the Cat of the Day
Name: Morsel
Age: Twelve weeks old
Gender: Female
Kind: Sandy Tiger
Home: Brooklyn, New York, USA
 
   Morsel was the last of a litter of four kittens brought to the KittyKind Animal Shelter in Manhattan, where Mommy volunteers, feeding and cleaning cages once a week. She was the only cat adopted that night. She was looking very lonely and scared in her carrier, and when we got her home she started mewing and desperately seeking her brothers and sisters. Not finding them, she immediately adopted our five year old cat Duncan -- but first she had to show him who was boss. Only nine weeks old and 1/8 his size, she stood up on her hind legs, hissed at him and swatted the air until Duncan backed off. However, his curiosity was permanently aroused, and he kept coming back for more. Three days later, they were sleeping on separate pillows on the same sofa, and in another week they became one tangled ball of fluff on the armchair. None of us can imagine how we ever got along without our Morsel.
