Sophia, the Cat of the Day
Name: Sophia
Age: Nine years old
Gender: Female
Kind: American Shorthair
Home: Miamisburg, Ohio, USA
 
   Sophia is a very affectionate and funny cat. She has a nightly routine in which she must have at least five minutes of solid petting before we turn out the lights. If she does not get this immediately after we settle into bed, she mounts a massive elbow-licking and meowing campaign until she gets what is rightfully hers. She loves to rub her face on the bedpost and make a sound that we describe as her "pig snort." If Sophia were a superhero, her special power would be massive shedding. She is very careful to lie only on dark surfaces such as black pants, our wine-colored sofa, and the dark green bedcover as to maximize her shedding effectiveness. We love our Sophie and we know she loves us too, since she puts up with our silly human ways!
