Filou, the Cat of the Day
Name: Filou
Age: Six years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Abyssinian
Home: Munich, Germany
 
   Filou is special because he is such a cute little prince. He knows he is noble and will always act with grace. Instead of meowing for food he will give you gentle cuffs with his head while purring. He likes to sit on your shoulder and to be carried around like a falcon, sleeps under the covers but he never comes to your lap. He is a gourmet: He loves chocolate (I know he shouldn't get it..) and runs from far away if he hears there is some unwrapped, he loves avocados, mangoes (but only the sweet ones we bring sometimes from South East Asia), olives, smoked salmon, Thai and Indian food even if it is hot - just like Thai cats do. Filou lives with me and my husband and his adopted brother Tigris near Munich. We got them both when my husband retired. We knew then that whatever cat we would get would be rotten spoilt -and yes they are. When playing he does it like Buster Keaton: doing the most funny things without ever smiling. Tigris who is almost double the size tries to bully him, but nevertheless it is often Filou who attacks Tigris and rolls over him. They give us so much love and tenderness - we cannot imagine how our live was before they came to live with us.
