Vanyel, the Cat of the Day
Name: Vanyel
Age: Six months old
Gender: Male
Kind: Siamese mix
Home: Cheshire Connecticut, USA
 
   Vanyel was adopted from a cat shelter along with his brother and he is by far one of the most interesting cats we have ever owned. Someone dropped off him, and two of his brothers along with their tortie Siamese mom on the shelter's door step. We saw them and just had to take them in! It turns out, Vanyel, will be near fifteen pounds according to our vet and where as his much smaller brother is "wild" about the out doors and is very curious. Vanyel is this big "scary" push over! Vanyel may be big but he certainly is not the bully of the family.

    Vanyel likes to try and take showers with us and is obsessed with the sink! Every morning I find him in the sink as I try to get my contacts in my eyes. He also talks to you continuously! which can be good since he likes to play on the stairs! Being one of the four cats in our home he holds his own and is slowly becoming the biggest, yet he doesn't attack our chinchillas or our birds and is even gentle with our plants!

    The best thing ever is to come home and have this big guy climb up to "help" you read purring loud enough to hear him in another room. Once he has successfully gotten you to "focus" on him he rolls over to have his belly scratched and settles in to the crook of your arms!
