I
saw where you once had a cat named Pushkin, a Russian Blue, as the Cat of
the Day. We too, have a Russian Blue, this one a long-hair Russian Blue which
is more properly called a Nebelung, a rare breed that came along in the early
1980's. Pushkin, like his adopted sister Lutsa, is a rescue cat, and lived
his first year in Bend, Oregon where he had a big backyard with maple trees he loved to climb.
Not a big fan of car travel, two years ago he made a cross-country trip in
the cab of a pick-up to New Jersey, a ten-day trip that involved his first
hotel experience and many nights camping. A very meticulous cleaner of fur,
he has no problem speaking his mind, hates any closed door, and always wants
to be where the action is. Running water is of course a source of endless
fascination and when annoyed will demonstrate that the laws of gravity still
operate by pushing small objects and full water glasses off bedside tables.
In Pushkin's world, laps are definitely for sitting on.
He is most recently a resident of Elizabeth, New Jersey, but hates it, and will soon
be back (with any luck) in Potomac, Montana where he can again enjoy the great
outdoors. He lives in relative harmony with his sister Lutsa and parent/servants, Charles and Joyce.
