Jed Earl, the Cat of the Day
Name: Jed Earl
Age: Three years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Ragdoll
Home: Raeford, North Carolina, USA
 
   This is my cat. His name is Jed Earl. He is a Blue Point Lynx Ragdoll. He was born on May 31, 2004, so he turns three today on his birthday. Jed Earl doesn't know he is a cat. He is a real sweetie who keeps me company since I am disabled, and home all of the time. He loves to sit in the window, and watch the world go by.

    Jed Earl can be very affectionate when he wants to be. He will let us know when he wants to be loved on by jumping up into our lap, and head-butting us. He purrs so loud (my husband calls it cadillacing) that sometimes we have to turn the t.v. up. He loves to hide around the corners and jump out and grab us when we walk by. He often lays on top of the bird cage (we have a Goffins Cockatoo and a conure) with his feet dangling inside. He likes to drink water straight out of the faucet. We turn the water on so it comes out in a little stream just for him.

    He doesn't care much for people coming over and invading his domain. He will usually disappear until company leaves, and when he comes back out, he will inspect everything to make sure it is how he left it. He loves catnip. We put a little bit in the middle of the floor, and he rolls around in it until it is all stuck in his fur.

    Jed Earl likes to lay on top of the computer monitor, and chase the cursor around the screen. If I am not at the computer, he lays there and says "moooouuuse..." over and over. He follows us around the house, and is usually where we are. We have to be careful, because he will wind in and out around our feet. I am so glad that we added Jed Earl to our family, and I have come to realize that you don't own a cat, he owns you!
