Muffin, the Cat of the Day
Name: Muffin
Age: One year old
Gender: Female
Kind: Domestic Shorthair
Home: USA
 
   We've had Muffin since November of 2000, she was my nephew's cat, he had to give her away because of allergies. Muffin is a very sweet, mild cat, and I just love her eyes. She's scared of loud noises, and strangers, but she will cuddle sometimes, she loves to be brushed, and have her head scratched! When we first got her, she was scared and would hide under the couch most of the time, but soon learned that it was ok to come out, and now she can be a loving cat. Her favorite pastime is watching the 'birdies' from the screened-in porch, and she sometimes watches Animal Planet with me.

    Muffin loves to chase the ball, but doesn't bring it back, so her "human" has to get it back, and throw it again! When she sees the ball, and I say 'get ready' she crouches down behind her kitty condo, and then races after it. She loves to play with her toy fur mouse, and she will bat it under a door then go back and forth trying to get it out!

    When she hears the door bell ring, she knows immediately that a 'stranger' is here, and she will either run under the couch, or slowly walk to the door to see if someone is really coming into her house, and when they do, she slinks away, running away with her back low. She also jumps on the front door when she is ready to come in from the porch, and if she is not heard the first time she does this, she cries a meow as she runs past me!

    Whenever I am at the computer, she jumps on the back of my chair, and sleeps there till I leave the room, then follows me. She will usually sleep at the foot of my bed. Muffin and our other kitty (Cookie) love to wrestle and chase each other, they play everyday till sometimes the kitten will bite her, then Muffin hisses and bats at her, and will walk away!
