I'd
like to introduce you to Sgt Pepper, the cutest cat in the world ...
or so he thinks, and he'll tell you so, too. He and his sister, Tonka,
have been a part of my family since the day they were born.
His mother came to our house a homeless stray that we welcomed into our
home and soon discovered that she was going to have kittens. She gave
birth to four babies, of which Pepper was the first born, and after she
had groomed and fed him I picked the little guy up and held him in the
palm of my hand. I'd never held a just born kitten before and I was amazed
by how small he was. As soon as her kittens were weaned we had his mother
spayed and she and her babies became a much loved addition to our family.
When he was younger, Pepper loved to play with any and every toy, string,
and person he could find. He loved to go outside and would explore our
yard and garden to his hearts content, only willing to come in when night
began to fall and his supper beckoned. Nowadays he's settled into a more
tranquil way of life: eating, sleeping (his favorite spot is on top of our
microwave oven), and voicing his opinion about everything we do by meowing
loudly over and over again until you tell him he's right and then he gets
a told-you-so smile on his face.
Pepper may not be a youngster anymore, but to me he'll always be the
little kitten I held in the palm of my hand.
