Arrival Story: He was brought to me as a rescue from Tennessee, where his kind original owners rescued him from the pound, so he was a lucky kitty from the beginnning. I fell in love with him at first sight. He is a big, happy bundle of white fur who loves everyone! Anybody that visits gets "flapped" by his big plumetail!
Beau lies in the window and sings at the top of his lungs (being deaf he doesn't have a clue to how loud he actually is, it's so cute). Beau loves his box fan and will stretch his paws on it, to angle the air stream to his liking.
Bio: Beau is one busy kitty, he loves to run around and chase imaginary things and is full of energy in the middle of the night so I try to keep him up during the day so I can get some sleep :) Lying around in the middle of mom's work and clearing my desk is a favorite pasttime. He is a loving kitty who rarely leaves my side. My furry, white shadow. He really knows he's loved.

The Last Forum I Posted In: Hi everyone! Happy holidays
I've Been On Catster Since:
Fall is beginning to set in here in northeast Ohio. I am a southern cat and this is my first fall up north. As things begin to cool down, mom turns off the ceiling fans and lets the cool air come in, but keeps closing the windows a little more each day. I am a very furry kitty and have grown a thick, luxurious coat, more than I did down south! I still get a little cold now and then, so I head to mom, and wedge myself against her to stay cozy. I purr and knead the blankets, and revert back to little kitten in my mind. Mom brushes and pets me, and I purr all the time.
If I'm not up with mom in the recliner, then I'm on my back on the floor next to it as she works. I watch tv upside down in this position nearly every day. Every now and then mom gives my brother and I cat treats, we sure do have the life!
Mom recently bought Fluffy and I a Kitty Kube, a soft, fake fleece padded cube with a hole in the side for us to crawl in, sort of a box but much softer. We love it, and have daily play-fights with eachother over who gets to be in it first. Next time mom goes to Wal-Mart, she's going to have to get another one. We love our Kube and I deserve it all to myself :D Life is good, I'm a happy furrball.
I am purring more than ever now that my family and I moved all the way from south Florida to northern Ohio (near Cleveland). My brother Fluffy and I rode with mom as she drove a 16' truck all the way up to Ohio, my place was behind her seat. She reached over and petted us whenever she could so the trip was actually pretty good. We liked the hotel in Savannah, Georgia a lot, too, and slept all over the place, trying out the cozy spots. Such a fun adventure. We got to sit back and watch mom do all the work, hehe.
We are now living in a really great place in a fun town that is full of tourists for me to watch. Mom put our cat tree in one of the living room big windows so my brother and I can watch everything including many, many birds in the trees from our best seat in the house! Sparrows and wrens chirp at us as we bask in the sun and snooze happily.
Another fun thing is the really nice hardwood floors. Mom hung up my faceted crystal ball so I can chase rainbows on the floor, which mom calls "the kitty disco". Life is great. I wait every day for my rainbows to appear, and am sad on rainy days when they don't. I will let mom know that I want the rainbows by meowing at her until she comes and sees if she can position the crystal in a sunny spot. I have her wrapped around my paw :D
My brother and I love to sit in mom's office as she works, at the big window in there, and watch everything from our cozy spots there. There is perfect counterspace for either me or Fluffy (I make sure it's me, of course and kick him out if I catch him up there). I love sitting up there among mom's knicknacks and knocking a few over whenever I stretch. If she moves them, I find them and knock them over anyways so she can't win. I'm king of my castle..and I sure do love it here. Big, huge purrs.
Mom says we're moving next month, all the way across the country to her hometown of Chagrin Falls, Ohio. It's a big job to get ready for this. My brother Fluffy and I had our shots so we're up to date for the trip, the vet came to our home and gave them to us so we didn't need to go to him. I rubbed against his legs after the shot to show him that there aren't any hard feelings :D
Mom bought us a big cat crate, the kind they use in cat shows, so my brother Fluffy and I can ride with her in the front of the royal moving chariot (moving van). It's partitioned so we don't beat the heck out of eachother (sibling rivalry). I like to ride in cars, and will enjoy seeing all the sights. Mom's taking the trip slow and easy since she says us cats are precious cargo and she wants to make sure we get to our destination, 1100 miles away, safely. We will stay with relatives overnight on the way up, which will be nice. I never met a stranger and will have fun meeting them, as they love animals like mom does. They have cats, dogs and horses! It will be fun to meet new people and spread the love around.
So it's adios to the fleas and bugs of Florida and hello to a cooler and better climate for Fluffy and I, who are longhaired cats. We will like having a new atmosphere to hang out in, and check out all the windows so we can see the birds. Our new landlady loves pets, too. A bigger and better place for us cats in a picturesque town. Purrfect.
