I
would like to introduce my cat, "Betty Crocker, Sweet Talker." There is no
one like Betty, a.k.a. Teeny Weeny Tortellini Butterbeany Weeny Teen! From
the minute I got her ten years ago as a tiny foundling at four weeks of age, she
has had a personality like no other cat I have ever known. Curiosity is her
middle name ... there's no place she won't explore, no cat tree too high, no
door too closed to want to see what is at the other side of it - and no bowl
she won't plop herself into to gaze up lovingly at her Mom.
She is a true scamp who keeps all the other cats young. She is fearless -
running to the door to greet whomever is knocking, caroming onto their
shoulder for a pat, then flying up the stairs to race around like a maniac,
before settling in for a good tussle with poor, beleaguered Peach who
tolerates her with his paternal good nature. After a few minutes of that,
they both settle down in each other's arms for a much-needed nap:).
Betty has a million different ways to alert us to her presence: either
crawling onto the bed to curl up on one of her sleeping siblings, leaping
onto my back as I lean into the refrigerator, or sprawling like a boneless
chicken on the back of the couch. Her favorite part of the day is when I put
on my face cream in the morning -- up leaps Betty onto the dresser to lick
my face clean... I look like an old bat, but Betty looks as youthful as the
day she was born! LOL! Her other favorite pastime is shrimp... on those
special occasions when I decide to treat the family to seafood, Betty is the
first one at the food bowls when she hears me call "Shrimp, shrimp...who
wants shrimp?".
She has enriched all of our lives with her incredible personality, there is
no one who doesn't love and adore Betty. I was blessed the day I found her,
and she gives me and the family ineffable joy. What a treasure is our Betty,
she is one in a billion!
