Gizmo, the Cat of the Day
Name: Gizmo
Age: One year old
Gender: Female
Kind: Sphynx Cat
Home: Phoenix, Arizona, USA
 
   Gizmo is an adventurous and loving cat! She loves to climb, explore, snuggle, and sit on your shoulder! She is very spoiled and she knows she's the princess. Sometimes she can be found hidden under blankets, in boxes, or inside of random bags that she finds! On some mornings, you may find stuffed animals or random objects scattered around the floors that she plays with when no one is looking. She's very mischievous, loving, and an amazing part of the family!

    Gizmo is our second cat and our very first Sphynx. We received her from a relative who could not keep her and took her to accompany our first cat. She's very hyper and playful and loves to play with all kinds of toys. She and our other cat always chase each other around the house day and night. When she isn't playing, she will find someone who is sitting down or lying down and fall asleep under their neck without any hesitation, happily purring. She has a strange fascination for feet. She rubs against anyone's feet, sits inside of our shoes, and plays with socks that she steals from our bedrooms. Another favorite thing to do for her is sitting in a window and feeling the Arizona sun on her skin. She loves to stay warm and sunbathe when she is in lazy mode! If the sun is down, she'll resort to sitting next to heated computers or under one of the table lamps.

    She loves to take her weekly baths (since Sphynx's are very high maintenance) and run around the house to dry off afterwards! Exploring is another one of her hobbies. When we moved apartments, we would have hard times finding her in one of the many unpacked boxes! I have found her inside grocery bags, inside cabinets, at the top of my closet, under the couch cover, behind the television, or buried in laundry baskets! She is definitely an adventurer!

    She is slightly shy to new people who come into the house, but once she meets them, she instantly falls in love. Many guests who cringe at the thought of a hairless cat change their minds instantly when they get to hold or play with Gizmo. She gives everyone loving nudges and has no problem sitting on anyone's shoulders or chests. When we are in the living room watching tv, she always comes and sits on someone, watching the tv as well.

    Gizmo is very proud and she knows she is adorable. She even has a slight strut when she walks around! She constantly demands playtime or attention if she is bored. Even if you're watching tv or sitting at the computer, she'll be on you and expect royal treatment! She's a joy to have around the house and although she drives us crazy, we wouldn't change her for the world.
