Romeo, the Cat of the Day
Name: Romeo
Age: Eight years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Cat
Home: Alton, Illinois, USA
 
   This is Romeo. He and his sister Shelley were among the first litter I ever fostered (over six years ago). Somehow, when I returned the litter to the adoption center, it was two kittens short. Arrangements were made, and I was able to adopt both him and Shelley, who by the way is the opposite of Romeo - mostly white with black spots. They continue to get along wonderfully and even sleep intertwined together in one small round cat bed.

    Romeo is the 'man of the house' but don't let that fool you. He enjoys Brookstone back massagers and can lay for hours on them (he needs to learn how to turn them on himself, because he will continuously walk around the massager meowing and brushing against it until I (momma) turn it on for him). He loves long brushings, pedicures (trims only - no polish), and allows me to dress him up... that is, as long as I will commit to allow him to lay on my lap while I pet him continuously for hours!!!

    At night, he waits below while we all climb the stairs, then makes one more round through each room and comes up to join us. Yes, he is 'the man of the house.' During the day, you can find him lying in the sun on the back of the sofa, lazily watching the birds and the neighborhood goings on. Evening is his lap time. Once fed, he expects limitless petting followed by a 'massage' (he's on his second Brookstone massager), then up to bed (after giving his personal 'all clear').

    He is definitely a 'ladies man' and a lover boy, as his name implies! I know I love him!
