Sealy, the Cat of the Day
Name: Sealy
Age: Three years old
Gender: Female
Kind: Silver Shaded Persian
Home: Thornhill, Ontario, Canada
 
   Sealy came into our lives in a couple of years ago as we had been looking for a buddy for our other furry friend Vlad (Birman). Sealy is also know as Doodle or even just the "Doo".

    We find Sealy to be unusual in a few ways. First, she sounds like a seal or dolphin (or even Gizmo from Gremlins) when she "talks" (perhaps that is why she got her name - she was already named when we got her). Secondly, she is quite the "high" jumper which I understand is unusual for Persians and so it is not uncommon for her to be seen scaling the kitchen counter or my daughter's dresser with such ease and finesse. Sealy also loves to play in water and can be found in the kitchen sink or the toilet (oops -- she even fell in one day) however don't even think of trying to give her a bath! For such a sweet girl, she gets rather ferocious ... growling, hissing and even trying to nip with those tiny teeth ... when you try and groom her. Definitely not a good trait for a Persian as their coats are a challenge to keep tangle free!

    Sealy loves to play and never seems to tire ... heck she would give the Energizer Bunny a run for his money! She will fly through the air to catch toys and is quite the acrobat. Sealy's current favourite toy is a straw and also the little plastic strawberry container! Sealy also has the most amazing green eyes and tail - so thick and full and she always holds it up with pride (she knows it is beautiful).

    Sealy and Vlad became friends rather quickly and while there are days when I swear they dislike each other, I know deep down inside that they will be life long buddies.

    Sealy is our special little girl! Here she is dressed as Ms. Sealy Claws!
