Pussifer, the Cat of the Day
Name: Pussifer
Age: Five years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Cat
Home: Kulpmont, Pennsylvania, USA
 
   This is our kitty, Pussifer (we just call him Puss' or MowMow). He's approximately five years old. I'm not sure of his exact birth date because Puss was found outside when he was about three weeks old. A mail carrier found him outside, picked him up, put him in her mail bag and took him to the local groomer where my mother was working as a photographer at the time. It was perfect timing for him to be found, because my mother was bottle feeding a litter of four kittens that were found abandoned along railroad tracks. The litter was about the same age. My mom took him home and bottle fed him along with the litter. He was feistier than the other kittens but everyone got along great.

    When Puss was about ten weeks old, I brought him to live with me. His father and I believe that he is the best cat in the whole entire world. He's so well behaved, he's very independent and he is just a great cat. We recently took in a foster kitty' who we call Nixxi. Puss fell in love with her instantly. She was only supposed to stay with us until we found her a permanent/stable home. Her previous owner had passed away. After seeing how much Puss loves her and how much happier he is when she's around, we decided that there's way now we could part with her.

    If ever you leave something lay around, like any kind of paper or box, you'll be sure to find Puss sitting or laying on it. If it's a box you'll find him sitting statue-like on top of it. Puss lives with two dogs who he does not like one bit. He'll hiss and swat at them if they get to close. The dogs don't intentionally bother him, Puss just doesn't like them. Puss' Dad wasn't exactly a "cat person" before. It's not that he didn't like them, he just was never really around them because he was allergic to cats. Now with a little help from allergy medicines they can get as close and snuggly as they want. His Dad loves him very much and he loves his Dad just the same. Whenever his Dad gets home from work, Puss will beg him for treats. He runs to the kitchen and jumps up on the table and waits for them. We don't have children, just our four pets (two cats and two dogs). I like to refer to Puss as our oldest child/son.
