Cheddar Cheese, the Cat of the Day
Name: Cheddar Cheese
Age: Six months old
Gender: Male
Kind: Domestic Long Hair
Home: Vernon, Connecticut, USA
 
   My little Cheddar Cheese is the most adorable cat. He is great company. Whenever I call him and talk to him he meows right back. He loves to be around people and he loves TLC. He prances around our apartment looking for someone to pet him and talk to him. We got Cheddar at twelve weeks old. He was very shy and scared all the time. Once he got used to us he became a cat lovers dream. When he has been sleeping for a while which he does often, he will get up and whine. It's like he's saying "hey guys, I'm up so come pet me." If we don't pet him right away... he comes up to me and pounces on my lap, and won't stop staring at me until I pet him. We also have other cats and when they are on my lap and Cheddar see this he comes right over and gently pushes them out of the way so he gets the attention. And since Cheddar is much bigger then all the rest of the cats he is successful in pushing them out of the way.

    When Cheddar gets excited and energetic he will bolt around the house and up the wood on the door ways. He is younger than a few of our five cats and he has the same parents as my oldest cat, Pumpkin. They also look exactly alike except for a slight weight difference. Whenever Cheddar is around and wants to cuddle, he finds Pumpkin and buries his face in his neck or stomach. It is so adorable, since Pumpkin is his older brother and such a calm tolerant cat he just ignores Cheddar and continues to sleep. So basically, wherever Pumpkin is, Cheddar is right next to him!
