Coloration: Cream-Lynx Point
Likes: Little Finnegan just loves his whole family, he 'cries' when he needs to be picked up and loved. He also - unfortunately - loves all countertops and everything on them: they're his playground of choice. He's also finds running water deliciously awesome.
Pet-Peeves: Having to be scolded and lifted off (repeatedly!) everywhere he's not supposed to be. Like countertops. And being banished to another room when Spencer the dog is eating his dinner (see below).
Favorite Toy: Unfortunately for our pup, Finney thinks Spencer's wagging tail was put on earth for his personal enjoyment.
Favorite Nap Spot: If there isn't an available human to sleep on or by, he's curled up on Spencer's puff bed.
Favorite Food: Spencer's dog food. (!!!!!!!) We now have to put Finney in another room when it's Spencer's dinnertime... something Finney's not exactly overjoyed about.
Skills: Hmmm... if misunderstanding the meaning of "NO!" can be considered a skill, then little Finney is extremely competent! On the sunny side, he knows his name, comes when called, and even sits on command - for a treat of course. He's no dummy.
Dwells:
indoors
Arrival Story: Having my youngest child of four head off to college, her sister move out (with her/our beloved Maine Coon Opie), and my husband's new third shift job all happening within two months along with my beloved Spencer getting older and sleeping all night I was overwhelmed how quiet my life had suddenly become. I found myself working twelve hour days because I couldn't face yet another lonely night at home. I realized that I needed something to fill that emptiness, and after much thought (and many protests from my husband) I knew I needed a cat back in my life. And this playful, sweet little kitten has made all the difference - I couldn't love my Finney more if I tried - I'm over the moon! (And so is my husband, as I knew he'd be.) I guess Finney could almost be considered a 'rescue' cat for he rescued me.
There really is nothing quite like having a tuckered out, warm little kitten purring away on your lap at the end of a long day - life is good. :-)
Bio: Little Finney was originally named Alex, and I called him "Alley"; the name Alex just seemed much too formal for such a tiny and playful kitten. I knew someday he'd 'grow into' the name Alex, but my family protested the nickname "Alley"; "That's a GIRLS name!" and (ridiculously), "He's going to have gender issues when he's older!" Yeah. Right. And is why he's now known as Alex Finnegan.
