Ralphie, the Cat of the Day
Name: Ralphie
Age: Ten years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Orange & White Tabby
Home: Escondido, California, USA
 
   Ralphie is the sweetest cat out of the twelve we have in our family. He is the second orange and white tabby we have owned. I could not be without one. Ralphie is the welcoming committee for any new cats we bring into the family. He is always more that happy to give them a nose bump and lots of licks.

    When we first got Ralphie, not more than a couple of months had passed when we found him with an injured mouth. Off we went to the vet where they determined he had a broken jaw and cracked canine tooth. Since we live on a private drive where very few cars travel, and Ralphie had no other aspects of trauma, we came to the conclusion that the neighbor's horse must have kicked him. We had seen him hanging around the corral a few times. He has never returned to that area since his accident. Most of the time Ralphie is waiting on the driveway for us to come home from work, and will sometimes jump into the car for a quick ride to the house.

    Ralphie loves to do summersaults when you talk to him. We call him the collapsing cat. He always gives you squeeze eyes and purrs loud enough to vibrate your lap if you are holding him. He has also appeared ten times in cat calendars. He just has that look that everyone wants to see.

   We love our Ralphie - he's the best!
