Murphy, the Cat of the Day
Name: Murphy
Age: Two years old
Gender: Female
Kind: Long-haired Calico
Home: Indianapolis, Indiana, USA
 
   My boyfriend and I found Murphy through the adoption center at Petsmart in the fall of 1999. We fell in love with her immediately! (When she wrapped her multi-colored little self around his neck and purred into his ear, he was a goner.) We couldn't name her anything too "girlie," so we settled on a family name - Murphy. Murphy is amazingly playful and energetic! She has a million little stuffed mice that she hides and chases. Every now and again the mice show up as "presents" inside our shoes or on our pillows. Murphy is also known as the "Toilet Paper Bandit" or "Bathroom Vandal." If we leave the toilet paper roll anywhere within her reach, our bathroom ends up strewn with pretty white streamers! Murphy's favorite spot to relax is her "Kitty Condo," a multilevel carpeted palace where she can perch and see the action in several rooms at once. Of course, the bay windows are also a perfect napping place when the sun is shining. At holiday time, however, she becomes a constant fixture under the Christmas tree. Murphy is our favorite present to ourselves all year round!
