Tobi, Jax, the Cat of the Day
Name: Tobi, Jax
Age: Eight, Seven months old
Gender: Female, Male
Kind: Tabby, Tuxedo Long Hair
Home: Clarence, New York, USA
 
   We got Tobi (a Tabby) when she was nine weeks old from a barn, the day before my knee surgery. Three weeks later we adopted Jax (Tuxedo Long Hair) at six weeks old from the SPCA. We love them so much!!! They have different personalities but are both extremely caring, loving and affectionate.

    Tobi has an obsession with water. She loves sitting in all of the sinks and anytime you run water, she is there! We have a real wreath that we put on the counter until we buy a hanger...she sits in it all the time. She loves it! The wreath is matted down on one side now, ha ha. She loves paper wads...she fetches and retrieves them just like a dog. She also sits up all of the time like a "circus kitty" and waves. She is the thoughtful, caring, understanding baby.

   Her likes: water, countertops, paper wads, toys.
   Her dislikes: vacuums.
   Her hobbies: sitting in the sink, retrieving paper wads, polishing mirrors and windows (she wipes her paws on them).
   Her goal: is to be a circus kitty, she always stands up and waves to get your attention.

    Jax is obsessed with being a bodyguard. He follows my husband everywhere!! He loves to take all of the cotton balls from the bathroom and scatter them around the house. He also loves lying on his back with his legs spread. He is the fluffy, goofy, affectionate baby.

   His likes: food, treats, cotton balls, toys.
   His dislikes: cellophane bags (had an incident with one stuck to his foot).
   His hobbies: placing cotton balls throughout the house, grooming Tobi, waking us up for work by licking our face.
   His goal: is to be a bodyguard to my husband, Ernie. Every morning he gets up with him and waits for him by the bathroom door, then runs ahead of him down the stairs to thwart away any attackers, then continues to follow him around until he leaves for work.

    They are buddies - playing and licking each other all of the time. Life would not be the same without them!! This photo, which I love, we call "Don't forget to wash behind your ears!"
