Leave a treat for Toonces
Nicknames: Mr. T, Mr. Quimby, Not so Dainty Boy Kitty, T, Big Un, Toonches, The Tooncinator, Tooncie, Toonc, Snookums (and he hates them all)
Kitty Complexion:
Coloration: Gray Tabby
Likes: Driving the car! Temptation Treats! Being Fed. Eating. 23 hour naps, getting in a box or bag, Dancing with the Stars (he's watching in picture, loves to be brushed!
Pet-Peeves: His sister Ashley, being held, kissed, or picked up, Daddy rubbing his tummy, water less than 30 seconds old
Favorite Toy: Are you crazy? Toys are for ninnys. He's SO above that. He occasionally will play with a string if you run it past him a hundred times and beg...
Favorite Nap Spot: Wherever he falls, the daybed, parent's bed. Anywhere in the house is a prime sleeping spot for T
Favorite Food: Purina, Fancy Feast, Party Mix and TEMPTATION TREATS, they are like kitty drugs!! He loves them so, we fear Betty Ford is in his future...
Skills: He is a professional beggar. He talks and answers you when you talk to him, and makes a great pillow. And like Toonces the driving cat, he can drive, just not very well.....
Dwells:
indoors
Arrival Story: He was rescued from the Augusta, GA pound when he was on death row--literally--going to be put down the next day. He was a gift to his mom. He subsequently moved in and life became about Toonces. He lives for the day he can steal the car and drive and leave us because we are so inferior to the noble Toonces. When my ex-husband and I divorced, my only stipulation was that I got custody of the lovable Toonces, named of course for Toonces the Driving Cat on SNL. And I got him! Life would not be the same without the lovable, good natured Toonc. And he knows it.
Bio: Toonces has had kidney failure three times and keeps on kicking. He is the sweetest cat ever, a big old ham and a great napper. He has the biggest green eyes I've ever seen on a cat, and thinks all of us are pretty stupid. He tolerates his sister, Ashley, but secretly plans her demise when we are away. :) Toonces simply feels he is a little bit above everyone else. He allows us to pet and scratch him and he'll give you a hand nuzzle, but forget about kisses and hugs. He's far too macho and it's so much like "the other cats". It's Toonces' world, we just live here. When I remarried, my husband became Toonces' best pal. Toonces' motto is "love all, trust none", probably because of all the vet trips he had to make....if you pick him up, he suspects an ulterior motive...

Today, I am a thankful dude. Besides having a pampered life, I have many things to be grateful for. Here's some of my list in random order.
I have unlimited food and all the treats I can hold. In fact, I quite enjoy waking Meowmy up in the middle of the night to howl and beg for them. It's kind of "my thing".
I am thankful my beloved Miss Mittens came through her surgery today and purr she is well on her way to recovery.
I am thankful for the friendship Ashley and I have received from Calvin and his family. Our prayers and love go out to them tonight for a loss that is nearly too much to bear, and to all those who have lost a beloved.
I am thankful for my pawrents (staff) who continually are a source of disappointment, yet, they give me everything I could possibly want.
My meowmy has surgery this Friday. She has assured me as she recovers, Ashley and I get more Catster time. We've been reading but not posting a lot recently. It's about time my Catster needs come first for a change. Please, catch that clue as it runs by you, meowmy! My meowmy does tell me that I get sweeter every day. She's so correct.
Today, my evil pawrents tricked me into going to the vet! The outrage!
I've been having some problems and throwing up, not feeling well, so they forced me to seek treatment. The vet shaved under my neck (on my chins! my chins!) and took blood. They had trouble getting it and it hurt a lot, I screamed and cried. I got shots and medicine while we wait for the results...so we're not sure what the deal is. I just want to feel better.
I was a really good boy, though, and I didn't act ugly at all. Meowmy said she was proud of me, so I got lots of treats and Greenies at the vet. I got tablets to take and I finally took one in a pill pocket for the first time. I realized I was tricked after I swallowed it. :)
I'm being pampered and loved while we wait, so I appreciate the purrs and meows from my Catster friends.
Wow, I cannot believe I am 15! Years ago when I was still a young dude, I had so many health issues (mostly kidney problems) that the vet told my meowmie it might be best to put me down...they held no hope. The next day, she went to the vet office and came to my cage, and I was sitting up and loudly meowing. I went home an hour later.
I've had a lot of brushes with the "d" word, including a few years ago when I accidently got out of the house and got attacked by some mean dogs. Through it all, I kept on fighting, because of the love I have with my family. My meowmie, my daddy, and yes, even aggravating Ashley truly make me a priority. And let's face it, I should be. I'm pretty special if I do say so myself. I was on death row at the pound when I came to be with meowmie. I truly live a charmed life with all the treats and food I want, all the attention and love I can stand (sometimes, they get a little mushy), and most of all, lots of wonderful Catster friends and the prettiest girl on Catster, Mittens, as my girl. Life is good at 15.
