Bo, the Cat of the Day
Name: Bo
Age: Two years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Tuxedo
Home: Saint Louis, Missouri, USA
 
   My family is a dog family. We're not a cat family. My brother and I worked at a boarding kennel for over two years out of which kittens and puppies were adopted. One day, a little tuxedo kitten was brought in to the kennel with his litter. He was so relaxed, calm, and easy going. My brother fell in love! Remember, we're not a cat family.

    Sure enough, he and I would go play with this amazing kitten that would let you flip him on his back... and he'd just lay there! Our co-workers were so impressed! I guess cats don't usually do this? Well, they convinced us that someone we knew had to adopt him so we could keep in touch. That's when my brother and I gave in and adopted the cat. We stopped by PetsMart, and brought our little Bo home in my brother's shirt. We already bought everything — so our parents couldn't say no!! And they didn't.

    Now we have Bo, he thinks he's a dog. He greets us at the door with little "Meows." He sleeps on your lap or on the recliner. He follows at your feet everywhere you go. He lies in the middle of the floor to watch everyone. He chases our dog. And he licks us!! He's such a funny cat! Thank goodness we're not a cat family!
