Mozart, the Cat of the Day
Name: Mozart
Age: Six years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Orange Tabby
Home: Santa Clarita, California, USA
 
   My husband and I adopted Mozart because we were looking for a "brother" for our other cat Levi. Mozart was one year old at the time. Now he is six. I could not decide on which kitty to take home so I let my husband decide, and he picked this male orange Tabby. At that time, Mozart's given name was Carrot. We wanted to give him a more sophisticated name. So in the car, on the way home to his new home with us, we were deciding on a new name for him. He cried in the paper box carrier provided for us by the rescue foundation, but as soon as we turned on classical music, he was quiet and became calm. So we then decided to name him after a classical composer. It then felt appropriate to name him Mozart.

    Mozart is my most favorite because he lets me hug him all I want and purrs to every moment of it. Once in a while, he does have a strange habit of scratching up carpet fibers from his scratching post and then eating them even though we make sure he has plenty of food at all times. Thank goodness he remains healthy. He brings us great happiness.
