Arrival Story:
Although I've been a cat lover all my life, it wasn't until summer 2004 that I realized that what was missing from my life was a feline companion. I heard that a veterinary clinic not far from where I live had cats and kittens for adoption. Of the three cats available, the only one healthy enough to leave the vet's was Toffy. I spent some time getting to know him and decided that he was the cat for me. I took him home two days later. I learned that Toffy had been residing at the vet's for two months and that nobody else had shown any interest in adopting him before me.

Bio:
Toffy is a handsome domestic long-haired orange classic tabby with green eyes. Little is known about his history. He resided at a veterinary clinic dedicated to cats for two months. Previously he lived at an animal hospital on the Sunshine Coast. He may have been an outdoor cat before. He is now an indoor cat who sometimes gets the itch to go outside and drives his mom crazy by playing with the blinds in the middle of the night and engaging in other naughty deeds. Of course, to me Toffy is the purrfect cat and I'm very happy to be his mom.

Toffy's Journal


Wet Cat? No thanks!


November 7th 2009 11:50 pm
[ Leave A Comment | 3 people already have ]

Cats, I was seriously considering entering The World's Coolest Dog and Cat Show in the Sleeper, Funny Face and Craziest Tail categories, as I figured I would have a good chance at placing among the finalists, but Mom had other plans. Here's a conversation that took place earlier today and the reason why I've decided not to enter the contest.

Mom: You know cats, I was just thinking… if you really want to enter The World's Coolest Dog and Cat Show your best chance at winning might be in the Wet Cat category.

Toffy: No thanks, Mom.

Mom: Vanessa? You like water, don't you?

Vanessa: No, not really. Sorry, Mom.

Mom: Come on, cats… It would be nice to win that Flip Ultra digital camcorder. Won't you please help me win it? Just wait here while I go get the water bottle.

Vanessa: Is she serious, Toff?

Toffy: Don't worry, Van. We aren't even eligible to enter the contest. Here… read what it says in the rules… Quote: "All entrants must be legal US residents to enter and be 13 years of age or older as of October 14, 2009. To be eligible to win a prize, entrant must be a legal US resident. If a winner is a non-US legal resident, then no prize of monetary value will be awarded." End quote.

Vanessa: Well, we're both under 13 years of age, so that alone disqualifies us immediately.

Toffy: That's right! Plus we're not legal or even illegal US residents.

Vanessa: Meow, yeah, what a relief... but do you think Mom even read the rules?

Toffy: Um, probably not… Oh, no! Look out, Van! Run!

Mom: Okay, cats… who wants to be first? Toffy? Vanessa? Hey! Where did you run off to? Come back here!


A craving for lamb

Toffy: Ouch! That hurt!

Vanessa: Indeed! How would she feel if she was suddenly dropped from a height of more than 30 feet?

Toffy: At least we're alive to tell about it.

Vanessa: Yes, but barely.

Toffy: Don't exaggerate now, Van.

Vanessa: So, what I wanna know is why was Mom flying through the air, climbing on buildings and people's desks with me under one arm and you under the other?

Toffy: I think she was on the lamb. Speaking of which… Meow! I'm hungry!

Vanessa: You mean she was on the lam.

Toffy: That's what I just said.

Vanessa: But why? Who was she running from? Why did she abandon us?

Toffy: She didn't abandon us, she just couldn't hold on to us any longer when she landed on that narrow ledge on the side of that building.

Vanessa: I wish she wouldn't have let go of us. Doesn't she love us?

Toffy: Of course she does! Otherwise she wouldn't pet us and play with us or feed us when we're hungry and let us snuggle with her on the bed.

Vanessa: I miss Mom. Will we ever see her again?

Toffy: Of course we will! Just close your eyes and count slowly to three… together now, with me….

Toffy and Vanessa, in unison: One… two… three…

Vanessa, upon opening eyes: Mom!

Toffy: I told you we'd see her again. And look she just woke up…

Mom: Toffy and Vanessa! You're both still on the bed with me. You know, I had the strangest dream… I was holding each of you under one of my arms while flying through the air, climbing on buildings and people's desks… and then suddenly… oh, I didn't mean to but…

Vanessa: Oh, it's okay, Mom. It was just a dream. We're purrfectly fine.

Toffy: Yeah, but we're starving. How about some delicious lamb, what do ya say, Mom?

Mom, looking at time on clock-radio: No, Toffy. It's only 10:30. I already fed you this morning. You'll have to wait until lunch time.

Toffy: Darn! At least I tried.


Free bag of cat food!

It turns out I'm not the only cat wondering about all those new cats suddenly joining Catster at the same time. Some cats think the newcomers joined the site because of the Royal Canin give-away. Yep, Catster has teamed up with Royal Canin (is it just me or do you picture a d-o-g every time you hear that name?) and has created the Royal Canin Felines group (3,851 members currently, subject to change any minute). You get a free bag of cat food just for joining the group! Of course, you have to join Catster too, but setting up a simple profile is easy. And you get free food!

Meow! Everyone loves free stuff! Mom tells me that when the new Canada Line subway/skytrain system we have here opened last month, the first day people could ride for free. Well, apparently there were line-ups longer than at Expo (don't ask me what that means, I wasn't around yet)! Mom hates line-ups, so I imagine she wasn't standing in one of those, even if it was for a free ride.

As I wrote in the comments section of my September 17th journal entry, it looks like the size of that free bag of Royal Canin isn't very big at all, only about 10-12 oz, if I remember correctly. Funny, I was picturing something more like a 4 lb bag that would be sent in the mail. But no, you only get a coupon and have to pick up the small bag of food yourself. Hmmm... probably not worth joining the group... And I'm wondering why Royal Canin all of a sudden? I thought Catster was a fan of Purina... or was that Iams...?

But let's just suppose that we were to join the Royal Canin Felines group and sign up for a free (small) bag of Royal Canin cat food… which formula would I have to get? I'm thinking maybe the one for Maine Coons, even though I'm not a Maine Coon, but they wouldn't be able to tell the difference, would they? And since Vanessa obviously looks nothing like a Maine Coon, she wouldn't be able to eat any of the free bag of cat food, were we to sign up for it that is….

Meow!
Toffy
