Riley, the Cat of the Day
Name: Riley
Age: Three years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Tabby
Home: Garden Grove, California, USA
 
   We adopted Riley from a Cat Rescue organization. They told us he was a female and only six months old. The veterinarian informed us he was actually a male and probably a year and a half old. Since he was rescued from the wild, we figure that is why he acts so aggressive towards the other cat in the house.

    Riley's favorite past time is to eat. He'll eat most anything. Pizza is a favorite. We had to put him on a diet and purchased a Lite dry cat food. He liked it so much he gained weight on it! He also likes to assert himself by chasing and harassing our other cat, Shadow, a fourteen-year-old Persian. He has a "girlfriend" he watches from the window everyday. He'll run from window to window to watch her.

    Riley sleeps with Dad and Shadow every night. He wakes up around 7:30 am and sits on the night stand and stares at Dad until he gets fed. Sometimes, Dad wakes up and sees him staring and will get up and feed him out of habit - then he'll notice the time is 2:30 am! Clever cat, isn't he?
