Arrival Story: Josie was found in the middle of the fast lane, in the middle of the morning rush hour, on a very busy highway into downtown Baltimore. A co-worker's husband stopped his truck in the middle of the road when he saw something moving, jumped out, grabbed it, and realized when he got back into the vehicle that it was a kitten. They had two large dogs and were afraid to keep her in the house with them. Once again, I offered a "temporary" home... that became a permanent one. Josie was the size of a six-week old, but her teeth told us she was closer to 12-14 weeks. (She's still a petite lady.) Although she was a scared little kitten, she almost immediately started displaying behaviors that were spookily like my childhood cat, Tiger -- not mention being the spitting image of her. It didn't take long before we were hooked on each other.

Bio: Josie is the troublemaker, provocateur, instigator, juvenile delinquent of the house. And she's so cute she always gets away with it. She has her big brothers wrapped around her little paw... she hasn't washed her own head and ears in the eight years she's been on the planet. She has moods where it seems she can't get close enough to me, head-butting and rubbing, snuggling into the lap -- but two seconds later she's off and running. If I try to pet her when *I* feel affectionate, I'm likely to lose a hand. Jojo has a mouth like a sailor and won't hesitate to let you know with a hiss or a spit when she is unhappy about something. She takes great joy in hiding at the top of the stairs and ambushing the other cats, me, unsuspecting houseguests. She LOVES men... when I had a male roommate, she followed him around like a puppy, and whenever a male friend visits she turns into the very picture of feline sweetness. She enjoys the occasional wrestle or "king-of-the-hill" game with her brother Rocky, and is the official new toy tester in the house. Now matter how big or how old she gets, she will always be the baby of the family.
