Simba, the Cat of the Day
Name: Simba
Age: One year seven months old
Gender: Male
Kind: Orange Tabby
Home: San Diego, California, USA
 
   This is Simba, aka Simby, Mr. Doodle Pants, Mr. Deedle Peedle, the Peege. Simba came to live with us when he weighed two pounds and was seven weeks old. He was rescued by an acquaintance (thank you Missy (and Tani!)). He was only days old when he was found with his two siblings (we believe their Mother was killed). When they were found, their eyes and ears were still closed. They were bottled fed (every few hours round the clock) and hand raised, which has made Simba especially affectionate with us. All three survived and are healthy, happy cats!

    Simba is handsome, affectionate and very clever. Simba is my husband's puppy. He drinks from the bathroom sink, jumps to my husbands shoulder on command (as he knows this means they are going for a walk), he plays fetch and even has a favorite stuffed animal (Sammy the seal) that he drags around the house from room to room depending on where the people are. We think he doesn't like Sammy to be alone. At Christmas time, Simba often put him under the tree to keep the presents company.

    We don't quite remember what life was like before Simba but know that it is definitely better with him! He's the cat of the day in our house... every day!
