 Quick Bio:
| -mixed breed | -part feral | -cat rescue | |
 Coloration: Gray Tabby

Likes: Sleep, sleep, sleep. Those afternoon naps with Mommy. French Symbolist poetry. The Furminator. Hello Kitty.

Pet-Peeves: All those stupid Maine Coons who came after him. If Mommy loves him as much as she says, WHY did she need more cats?

Favorite Toy: He is getting too corpulant to play much, but will bat around a wand or fishing-rod toy if you are aggressive enough.

Favorite Nap Spot: His cat bed or, of course, next to Mommy (who also takes a lot of naps). Spot spends around 23.5 hours out of every day sleeping.

Favorite Food: Any food, as much as possible. Sometimes he eats for 20 minutes straight.

Skills: For a cat who weighs about twice as much as he should, he can jump much higher than the Maine Coons can. Also, although this is not a skill, a yawn in Spot Language means "I love you!".

Dwells:
indoors

Arrival Story: When my beloved eighteen-year-old Botchan died, I was desperate for another cat, especially a male cat, as I discovered through Botchan how affectionate neutered males can be. I asked my vet if he knew of any cats that needed a home (he runs a kind of cat rescue service), and he introduced me to Spot. I think grey/brown mackerel tabbies--which are, after all, the most classic of all cats--are lovely, but I wanted something more exotic. Spot, though, when I passed his cage, put out a paw and hooked me with it. Literally and permanently. As they say, "The potential owner doesn't choose a cat, the cat chooses its owner."

Bio: Spot was a feral kitten living in a park. He was rescued one day when a kindly Samaritan saw him fending off a crow that had just eaten all his siblings but one, and was now trying to finish off Spot and his brother. Spot put up a tremendous fight to save both himself and his brother. The Samaritan was so impressed with Spot's courage that he rescued him. Somehow, Spot then ended up at my vet's. Despite this traumatic experience (and his feral background), Spot is the sweetest, most affectionate cat you could wish for.

I thought of beginning my diary with "Call me Ishmael," but since I'm not Ishmael, thought I'd plagiarize another work and start with, "To begin my life with the beginning of my life..."
Not that I remember much. Who does, after all?
