About Us
Callie, the Cat of the Day
Name: Callie
Age: Two and a half years old
Gender: Female
Kind: Calico
Home: Bloomingdale, Illinois, USA
 
   Callie got her name from the folks at Cat Guardians (a great cat shelter in Lombard, Ill.) because she sings like Maria Callas, the opera star. She makes a very pretty high-pitched twittering sound instead of a meow. She also does not know how to purr, just squirms and cuddles. She will curl up on your lap, to have her head and face scratched, but if you pet any other part of her body, she is gone in a flash. We think she is pretty cute.

    She co-exists with our twelve-year old gray tabby, Zanie, who will never forgive us for bringing this "wild thing" into her house, and our ten-year-old black Cocker Spaniel, Ebony, who just stays out of the way. Callie is one of those fast moving, aerobatic, high energy, and super curious little cats that keeps things interesting. We love her dearly.
