Byron, the Cat of the Day
Name: Byron
Age: Fourteen years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Ginger Tabby
Home: Essex, Connecticut, USA
 
   Here is Byron doing his Mohammad Ali impression! "Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee." I got Byron from a friend at work when he was just a wee kitten. I had never had a kitten before and at first was convinced there was something wrong with him as he was just crazy. Dashing around, jumping off furniture, bouncing off walls, biting at hair and all the other things kittens do to expend their boundless energy - now I know that's normal.

    He has certainly calmed down in his age and I expect sleeps about eighteen hours a day. In his prime he was a great hunter, and often brought "presents" to the kitchen door. This picture is a couple years old but he is still going strong. His most favorite position to be is curled up with his paws underneath him on the back of the couch. He has his cat friends in the neighborhood and an active social life. He loves everyone who comes over and can't help himself from rubbing against you. I just love my little guy!
