Coloration: Gray and White
Likes: Food, treats, head kisses, being sung to (if I sound good), going outside on his leash and harness
Pet-Peeves: The other cats 'bopping' him, not being put down fast enough, not getting his food first, singing to him when I don't sound good
Favorite Toy: Peeps does play much. I suspect it's a side effect of my having had him declawed :o(
Favorite Nap Spot: On the back of the chair
Favorite Food: Varies from day to day. Would love a steady diet of Fancy Feast, but has to eat things like Wellness, Innova, Pinnacle, Avoderm, Natural Balance, etc.
Skills: He's really good at catching ants with his paws. He licks his paw, puts it down on the ant to catch it, then eats the ant.
Dwells:
indoors
Arrival Story: I adopted Buster and his brother, Bono, from my former boss. These kitties, along with their mom and littermates, were barn cats. Once I got them home, they were pampered little princes and treated like royalty. We lost Bono on February 15, 2002 and Peeps thought he was FINALLY going to get to be an only cat. Don't get us wrong, he loved his brother, but he really wanted all of the attention for himself. We were fine by ourselves for almost two years, but after a bout with a ‘mild’ case of pancreatitis, coupled with his advancing age, I started to panic each time he didn’t greet me at the door and started thinking that maybe Peeps needed a ‘friend’. Yes, it was very selfish of me but I knew if I lost Peepers, I wouldn’t be able to make it through the grief if I didn’t have another cat to love. I started volunteering with a cat rescuse and, as was inevitable, I found a cat that I wanted to adopt. Peeps eventually learned to accept and even like Busbee and quite a few others that followed! I never thought I’d see the day, but he basically now accepts about any cat that comes through my home with barely a hiss.
Bio: Peeps will be 17 in April (2007) but he doesn't look it and he doesn't act it. He's still the alpha cat in the house. I know that I'm not supposed to have favorites, but this guy has been a part of my life for almost 17 years, so I feel like I can't help but be partial ;o)

THE RULES
Each player starts with seven random facts about themselves. Cats who are tagged need to write about themselves (the seven random facts) as well as the rules in their diary. You need to select seven cats to tag and list their names. Don't forget to leave them a comment (via p-mail) telling them that they've been tagged and that they need to read your diary for more information. My family is going to play by altered rules and we are not going to tag other kitties. Mom was on vacation for a week and came home to a mail box full of 'tags'
MY SEVEN FACTS
1. I have Chronic Renal Failure and have to have medicine twice a day and fluids 3 times a week.
2. I am declawed in the front, which my mom very much regrets.
3. I am possibly the fussiest eater on the planet.
4. I get to go outside on a leash and harness.
5. I have been on an airplane twice.
6. I was born a barn cat.
7. I have lived in three different states.
My sweet little old man! I hope you realize how very much I love you. You've been a part of my life for so many years, it feels like you have been with me always.
I'm so sorry that you've had to go through so much lately. Having kidney disease is no fun for you, I know that. But you are so good to endure the fluids and medications and supplements that allow me to prolong your life. I know you think it's not necessary, that if you're sick you're OK with dying, but your mommy is not OK with that.
I'm sorry you've had such a rough week with the urinary tract infection and then the enema, but you are such a trooper. You always bounce back and still love me in spite of what I've made you endure. I love you with all of my heart my little Pee Poppy Po, and I will go to the ends of the earth to make you feel better and to keep you healthy and with me for as long as I can!
