Arrival Story:
The first family Ivan lived with was moving and could not take him. I had another cat, Paesana, at the time and a sweet little sheltie, Kipper, who was going through cancer treatments at the time. I could not stand the thought of Ivan without a loving home and brought him into the fold. He and Kipper became great friends immediately and he was a comfort to Kipper when he could not get around. Paesana, however, wanted nothing to do with him so he did his best to stay out of her way.

Bio:
Ivan is one of the dearest cats I have ever known. He absolutely loves dogs (which in this house is a must) and was a great friend to both my Sheltie Kipper and my Airedale Katie. I have watched him sit on a couch so he could be eye level with Katie so that could bat each other with their paws. It is too funny now to have a cat that thinks he is a dog living with a dog that thinks it is a cat ;o)

Forums Motto:

What is it with this puppy?

Why is it that when this crazy little fur ball is all wound up he insists on bouncing all over ME? All I ask for is some lap time with mom otherwise I'm quite happy on the end of the bed or the back of the couch surveying my kingdom. When I desire a tummy rub I should not have to put up with being tackled and having my ears licked clean. Very degrading for a cat of my stature.
