Quick Bio:
-purebred

Likes:
Being fed by hand, getting picked up by his favorite people (but only when requested), hot towels fresh from the dryer, birdwatching, belly rubs, staring intently (and, okay, maybe a tad vacantly) at his water fountain for w-a-a-y too long.

Pet-Peeves:
Vacuum cleaners (!), unauthorized assaults upon his person, the skanky female cat who lives down the hall, "outfits" (especially those involving hats with chin straps), that so-called "adorable" baby panda at the zoo everybody is so crazy about.

Favorite Toy:
Hs best friend, the Roomba (I am actually a little worried about this); his Cat Dancer; his catnip pillow; his annual "present box" filled with toys (which must remain intact until his next "present box"); and, of course, his water fountain.

Favorite Nap Spot:
His "kitty condo"; perched on Purr Pads in the deepest, darkest corner of the closet; on a double set of Purr Pads carefully placed atop a feather bed, a down comforter, and an extra puffy quilt.

Favorite Food:
Anything dry and flavorless. Diet food? You bet. Special low PH? Bring it on!

Skills:
Successfully establishing and enforcing a rigid and painfully detailed daily schedule, insistently herding his family from distant locations into one of several Officially Designated Petting Zones, getting whatever he wants all the time.

Dwells:
indoors

Arrival Story:
I was very saddened by the death of a beloved 21 and a half year old Siamese cat. Rufus rescued me.

Bio:
Rufus is deeply offended that his photo was rejected for an incredible two years in a row by the 365 Cats a Year Calendar. He remains convinced that it is fixed.

Lives Remaining:
7 of 9

Forums Motto:
It's fur, not fat. Really.

I'm Keeping Up With All Your Catster Adventures

My Mom and I want to apologize that it seems as if I haven't been updating my page as often recently. But we're still visiting Catster almost every day and keeping up with all the triumphs and fun and sadness and friendship.

The reason is that Mom has taken on a number of new responsibilities both in her real life and in her online life by taking over a leading role at a Web site she's been involved in for a number of years. The end result is not enough hours in the day.

Catster is still a favorite moment of calm and fun in both of our days. We are both well. And we continue to wish the very best for every Catster and their humans!

Purrs,
Rufus

If only my Mom could figure out exactly what she is doing wrong, there would be a link in my new photo caption to the lovely and talented Samoa's Mawmee's Cat in the Clover etsy shop.

Which is a shame because we would like everybody to know how cute her ties are -- and they're interchangeable. I have a veritable wonderland of ties to suit everyone occasion!

Thanks, Samoa and Mawmee.
