Coloration: Spotted
Likes: He loves snuggling in the mornings, playing with his toys, eating, hanging out with me at the computer, and anything, really.
Pet-Peeves: He's skiddish so sudden sounds spook him, his dog sister Patches, strangers in the house, not being fed early, and having to wait for me to feed them. Anything in the litter box left "uncovered".
Favorite Toy: Catnip! The catbip bird that crinkles, bell balls, toy mice. The laser pointer is his favorite! And anything he tear up.
Favorite Nap Spot: On the computer monitor, their box bed in a hide-away, on my bed, anything that smells like me. On my lap, in the sunlight, and he'll cuddle with Saki wherever she sleeps.
Favorite Food: He likes his cat food, he'll go crazy for any kind of treats, tuna seems to be a big one. He likes Provolone cheese, ham. He'll sneak into anything left lying around.
Skills: He comes when I tell him to, he comes when I snap my fingers, he understands "no" very well, he takes care of bugs that get in the house, he knows how to get out of trouble (both good & bad), and he takes care of me when I'm not feeling well.
Dwells:

Arrival Story: My aunt and cousin came down from Michigan for the week to visit us. Around 7am on June 24 '06, my aunt said she heard crying when she went out for her walk. She woke me up, saying she saw a kitten. I quickly got up, threw on my shoes, and went out with her to look. I saw a tiny little critter scamper under the cars, across the driveway and go through the gate to the side of the house. I saw him under the porch, trying to hide behind some old mats. He ran out and slipped through a link in the aluminum fence. I went out the gate to follow him. He was under a small bush in the neighbor's yard, just outside of my reach. I knelt down to meet his gaze while he cried. I gave him a reassuring meow. He looked at me and his baby blue eyes told me something. He crawled out from the bush and went back through the fence. I followed him and watched as he crawled into some tall grass and lied down. My aunt came over and swooped him up into her arms. She gave him to me and I carefully held him close, not to lose him. He no longer cried. He watched me as I carried him to the porch. I sat out with him on the porch with the doors closed. He was no bigger then the palm of my hand and just skin and bones. He crawled all over my legs and feet, poking at my toes, and liking the gentle rubs I gave him. He was purring. I was surprised to hear that small motor running in him. I knew we wouldn't let anything hurt him again. Then he met Saki. She treated him like she would her own; they slept together during the day, and played together. At night I would carry him with me to bed and he always slept on my neck. Soon he was growing, but we still shared our nights together. When he was 5 months old, his belly was very round. Soon he was showing signs of hairballs. Ever since, he'd been eating Petroleum Jelly, recommended by our vet. Even to this day, Leo being the giant he is, we continue to share our nights together, cuddling until morning. He's my love-bug and I don't know what life would be like if we hadn't saved him.
Bio: Sometimes Leo... I don't know where you came from, but I'm glad you did. Your my little angel from above!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ HONORABLE DAYSDaily Diary Pick: 9/4/06, 9/8/06, 10/11/06, 1/18/07, 8/16/07, 9/21/07, 10/20/07, 6/2/08, 6/4/08, 10/18/08 , 12/8/08 Groups: Kitty of the Week in The 3 Amigos 7/14/08, 10/20/08, 1/26/09

We're sorry for being so absent! Earlier this week, our Internet went out for three days. And it wasn't easy without any Internet MOL.
We were excited to see everyone who were chosen as finalists for the World's Coolest Cat and Dog Contest! We hope to some year be chosen, heehee, just everycat's dream. Congrats to everyone!!
Anyways, mommy was just looking on Google and was wondering if there was a way she could make some homemade cat cookies? Just for the holidays, too. She'll do some looking at pet shops, but she thinks it would be fun to bake some cookies for us, too!
Have your own recipe? Let me know by sending it as a comment to this entry!
Well, as for us all, we're doing good. Mommy found a flea on her earlier today and she used the last two Advantage-Multis on me and Luca. She used one on me cause I was laying on her lap at the time and one on Luca cause he was home. She'll be getting more tomorrow for Saki and Simba. But she remembered earlier that Saki is allergic to fleas and we're hoping to have it taken care of fast.
That's all for now! Hope everyone has a great weekend!
We are still coming around on Catster. Mommy is doing good about it and doing her best. She's almost done with putting our Thanksgiving profiles together so those should be up soon. We won't be on every single day or maybe not even every other day, but if we ever see something in our email like our furiends sent us a rosette or a pawmail, we will check right away.
We are all doing great over here. Saki got all better from her Coccidiosis a few days after she got her medicine. Her ear was bothering her for about a day or two, but she eventually got it taken care of. Luca is doing great, his boo-boo is healing up and he ran out of his medicine yesterday morning, so he should be good for now. Mommy is still praying for him, of course. Simba is doing great, too. He's such a silly boy and he's been wanting lots of attention lately.
Patches is doing great, too. She's still her crazy-self so much hasn't changed with her MOL. Amber and Olly, although their pages have been untouched for a bit, are doing good.
We have been trying to vote for EVERYONE in the World's Coolest Cat and Dog show. It's tough! So many entries! But we love seeing all the funny and adorable pictures and mommy has seen a select few that she thinks might win. We entered some as well. Not sure how ours are doing, but it's fun to enter and join in!
Well, that's all for now... hope to tell you guys more soon! Enjoy your Sunday!
Today, mommy came home in a rush to see if she would be able to get Saki to the vet and then rush to PetSmart to get some turtle-things. She came home too late as the vet closes at 6pm and it was already after 5pm.
But she logged onto FaceBook and saw that Rusty's sis posted on her status that our dear furiend Calvin had passed away. It was a shock, so mommy quickly brought up his and page and read his latest diary entry. It is such sad news but the way his pawrents handled it, was beautiful.
Sweet Calvin lived such a long time and we know he was a ball of sunshine. Whenever we looked at his profile, we just had to laugh at some of his pictures.
Even though we haven't been around much, we have been purring for him. And many other Catsters who are in need for purring.
We will be sending many more out to his family.
We will miss you dear Calvin... but we know we will never forget you.
