Denis, the Cat of the Day
Name: Denis
Age: Four months old
Gender: Male
Kind: Persian
Home: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
 
   Last month I decided that my life was too boring and that only a puppy would cheer me up! After a lot of thinking I came to the conclusion that a puppy would just mess up my life even more!

    My friends keep telling me to get a kitten which got me wondering... suddenly I told everybody in the office where I work that I had a meeting that would keep me away all day long. I got into a cab and told the driver to take me to the suburbs, which are very dangerous here in Rio, and by the time I got there, three hours later I was decided to buy a little cat.

    I got to this strange place with a strange woman with a lot of cats...I told the taxi driver to stay with me all the time since I was afraid. Looking at all those cats playing I fell in love right away with a big black persian cat, he sat on my lap and stood there for hours making those sweet noises. After a while I saw this little cream persian cat sleeping in the corner of the room, so I asked the women "How about that one? Can I have it?" and she said "That is the big black persian cat's son."

    So I took a really good look a the kitten and his eyes were so sad that it almost made me cry! I named him Denis and took the kitten home!!! I called my vet and he told me that Denis was really sick and that he probably wouldn't live for a month, he was underfed and very sick!

    I treated Denis with all the best supplements and medicines that money could buy, adding a lot of love to that as well! Now Denis is the king of the whole family! He is kind, lovely and sometimes I can just swear that he is talking to me!

    He sleeps with me and wakes me up every day at 8AM sharp for me to go to work! Now the doctor said that Denis is very healthy and his chances to die young has gone to "0". He is so cute that the persian club made an e-card with his picture! Go check it out!

    He is my little son... the king of the house!!! Now I couldn't imagine my life without him!
