Hi,
my name is Stubby. I got that name because I am a very small little
girl and my "Dad" says that I look like I'm walking on stubs! I weigh in
at about a whopping six pounds. I'm all fur and personality! I walk on my
tip toes like a little ballerina. I look and feel as delicate as any
orchid flower petal. So tiny and fragile.
!! Not !!
She is a spitfire, live wire, firecracker of a little girl! Meaner than a
rattle snake and tougher than nails. All the other cats in the house and
in the neighborhood keep their distance when she is about. They have all
felt her fury at one time or another and don't want to do it again! She
is so tiny and agile that you can't keep her down. Keeping her inside
all the time is not an option with this one. She cries and beats the tar
out of all the cats in the house until she gets what she wants. She
loves to be outside. At dusk she gets on the roof of the house, then up
on the chimney. She lays there and waits for the chimney swallows to
come roost for the night. All you can see way up in the sky is a tiny
ball of fur swatting at birds that are bigger than she is!
Her "Dad" got the unfortunate task of taking her to the vet when the
time came to get her spayed. As soon as he got her out of her carrier
she did her famous contortionist routine. She wriggles, twists, and
rolls into a tiny ball of fur with claws! It took five people at the vets
office to corner and catch her. Needless to say, my husband came home
with a torn shirt and bleeding from many places!
She has a soft spot only for our silly, clown cat Leroy and me. When she
is quiet and calm she purrs so loud that her whole body vibrates. She
gives wonderful headbutts and tiny mews. We admire her spirit, her
independence, and her tenacity. She is our little spitfire and we
couldn't love her more!
