Squizz, the Cat of the Day
Name: Squizz
Age: Seven years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Maine Coon

   My name is Squizz, this is short for Exquisite and I am superior. When I was about nine months old and living in Fort Bragg NC, I was looking for a new home and I came upon the house of a nice couple who took me in and cleaned me up. Unfortunately, they were moving and also had a mean cat. I was locked up in the extra bedroom when another couple came to visit. The next morning when my soon to be Dad woke up, I jumped up onto the bed and head butted him. That was all it took.

    We worked as long haul truck drivers for four years after that and I was able to see the country from coast to coast while riding on the dash board of the semi. So you can imagine that I have absolutely no trouble traveling.

    Mom and Dad don't let me outside by myself, so we had to come to an understanding. I can go outside but only when I have my harness and leash on. I love going outside in new places and walk around and climb the trees a little and play with bugs and stuff till they get broken. People say that I'm so handsome and well behaved but what can I say ... I am superior!

    The picture that you see is from last year when we were on vacation in eastern Utah. It was taken of me on a rock at a petroglyph site while I was surveying my domain like a big puma. Look how camouflaged I am on the rocks, I love vacations!

    Oh Yeah, I have a brother, the Bobber, who came into the family a few years ago. I tolerate him.
