Dylan, the Cat of the Day
Name: Dylan
Age: Four years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Domestic Shorthair
Home: Waterloo, Iowa, USA
 
   This is Dylan in his window seat. His full name is B. Dylan (Riley) Fisher (we named him after Bob Dylan the singer, but the B. stands for Booger!) All pets should have Riley as their middle name because they all have the "life of Riley". Who was Riley anyway? Dylan is 4 years old and he is a domestic shorthair neuter. I think he has Maine Coon somewhere in his lineage, because he has huge paws and fluffy back legs! He is a beautiful gray tabby.

    Dylan came to us after our other cat Toad died from Leukemia. Our other kitty Sharky was lonely for his brother Toad so we went to a kitty adoption center and found Dylan. He came home with us and Sharky was very upset at first, but then they started to play with each other under the door (we had them separated) and they have been best friends ever since.

    Dylan came to be known as Dylan the Villain because of his incredible antics! He loves to play fetch with his dingle balls (that's what I call his shiny, fuzzy cat toys) and he also loves to jump in my husband's lap for his daily pets. He lets me know when it is time to eat, play or go to sleep. He likes to talk to me in the kitchen while I do the cooking or dishes. He loves seafood!! His favorites are shrimp, scallops and lobster! He has his own little plate and sits at the table with us. I always say, "Our dinner guest is funny, he likes to eat his food off the floor!". We put his food on the plate and he picks it up in his mouth and jumps to the floor to eat it. Dylan has learned to drink out of the faucet from his brother, Sharky. We love Dylan very much and don't know what we did before he came into our lives.
