Cats

Cats are a very amazing creature and each have their own special characteristics. There are 5 cats living in my house and keeping us entertained. We bought 2 cats from a private party and did so because they were beautifully marked and were sisters. The other 3 cats were from the Cat Care Society in Denver and were brothers. Instead of coming up with cutesy names, that none of us could agree on, we named them by their coats …

Marble, one of the sisters, had coat that looked like marble

Stripe, the other sister, had a striped coat

Black, Grey, and Orange, the brothers, were named for the color of their coats

Marble is the smallest and weighs about 5 pounds and Black is the heaviest at about 18 pounds, with the others in-between and the boys weighing the most. The sisters hang out together as do the brothers. There is a definite division of the sexes when it comes to napping or sleeping. However, when they play it is every cat involved.

The cats are very social too. Whenever anyone comes to the door the cats want to know who they are, what they smell like, and if they are coming to play. Which brings me to to a show called, “My Cat From Hell.” It is a great show dealing with cats that have big problems. The host, Jackson Galaxy, goes to the ‘bad cat house’ and trains the cat and their adult keepers. Jackson is not the ‘normal’ person and you have to watch the show to see what I mean. It is on Animal Planet and also available on Netflix. If you are familiar with Cesar the Dog Whisperer and like his show (I do), then you’ll also like My Cat From Hell.
