Bob, the Cat of the Day
Name: Bob
Age: Four months old
Gender: Male
Kind: Orange tabby
Home: USA
 
   Our pet's name is Bob. He's a very good kitty, puts up with our two children, ages six and one. We think he is special because he's such a loving, happy kitty, hands down! He was a birthday present to our six-year-old daughter who just loves him to death. He's a very mild-tempered kitty, very affectionate and when he just feels like being alone, he hides under our beds or our couch or pretty much anywhere but in the pet bed we got him! Every now and then, you can find him sprawled across the top of the couch.

    He's kinda clumsy, I think it has to do with still being so young, he will be chasing his tail and fall right off of whatever he's perched on! Goofy kitty! We told our daughter since he was her birthday present and he was her kitty, she could name him. So she juggled around with Missy, Marmalade, and Princess. A few days after we got him, at his first vet's visit, we quickly found out that our female kitty was indeed a male! So she sort of realized that none of the names she was going for were going to work, and we all kind of settled on Bob. It just seemed to fit.

    His favorite toy is a little mouse attached to a plastic pole connected with elastic string. He likes you to either jiggle it around so he can chase it, or if nobody's around to play, he will drag it all over our house and play alone! Although he doesn't have to do it often, even our one-year-old will shake the mouse on a string for him! He's a funny little kitty, and we've only had him a short time, but he fits well with this family and we can tell he likes us too!!
