Tyke, the Cat of the Day
Name: Tyke
Age: Six years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Tabby
Home: Fargo, North Dakota, USA
 
   Tyke is six years old, I'm not sure of his breed, but he has stripes in the front, circles in the middle, spots on his back legs, and a striped tail. He's a large cat that likes to stretch out to grab door knobs when he wants to go outside. He's 16 lbs of pure energy. He doesn't like being petted, but he does like sitting on the armrest of the rocking chair. He will always come to you, wherever he is, in the house, by simply whistling one, short, high pitched whistle. He's stubborn though, if he's up on the computer desk, and I point to the floor, he gives a whiny meow, 'cause he knows not to be there. If I keep pointing to the floor, he reluctantly obeys by giving me a grumpy look then jumping down. I know many people that say they've never seen such good communication between humans and cats, such as mine. Tyke and Guido (my other cat) get a lot of attention, though Guido is a passive Bobtail, Tyke is the playful one who will wear you out. He plays rough, if you pretend that your hand is a mouse, but you can always end the game by sitting back and whistling. He will perch up on your chest and act domesticated once again. I present to you... Tyke.
