Reggie, the Cat of the Day
Name: Reggie
Age: Thirteen years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Tabby Cat
Home: Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA
 
   This is Reggie, an uncommon alley cat, and the senior kitty in our household. He was adopted from the local Humane Society at about one to two years old and we have now had him for twelve years. He's an indoor cat who enjoys chewing electrical cords, splashing in toilets, biting houseguests and planning his frequent escapes. When he gets outside, he rolls around on the cement, eats a few weeds or leaves and checks out the garden. Reggie is an extremely amiable cat (except for his intolerance of houseguests), who will allow himself to be stuffed into dollclothes, boxes, wastebaskets, etc. When any basket is available, even if it is meant to be an Easter basket, Reggie occupies it himself!

    He's a cuddler and purrs loudly - not much of a meower, but he makes cute purring-cooing sounds. He was an only cat until the age of ten when we adopted a young feral cat from the country of Oman (that's another story altogether). We were surprised that Reggie accepted a second cat so readily. He is now back down to his young adult weight and is much more active and kittenish, due to constant teasing and pestering by his brother, Caesar. We love our kitties - they are a constant source of affection and amusement.

   Always adopt two cats!
