Coloration: Blue
Likes: Laser light, treats, his blue mouse and his kitten ball, sucking his thumb, kisses and his squishy mouse.
Pet-Peeves: The water bottle. He's absolutely disdainful of farts. He cries and squirms when picked up. And he loathes having his nails trimmed.
Favorite Toy: Everything from furry mice to cat dancers to toilet paper. He'll make a plaything out of anything!
Favorite Nap Spot: In his bed or with his meowmmy
Favorite Food: Whisker Lickens soft crabmeat treats. And he's also quite fond of his l-Lysine treats!
Skills: Vogue-ing, fly killing, playing catch, bird watching, thumb sucking and giving kisses on command. He's also learning how to unlatch the toddler lock on the toilet seat. And he's probably the greatest toilet paper artist in all of Brooklyn.
Dwells:
indoors
Arrival Story: My first Russian Blue, Felix, passed away on March 30, 2009, after a lengthy illness. After a week of major guilt over wanting to adopt again after my grief was so new, I found a Russian Blue kitten named "Teeny Tiny" on the Bideawee (in Manhattan) website.
I called immediately, only to find out that he was on medical hold. I was, however, permitted to go in to meet with the ktten just to see if we were compatable.
That very first night, I fell in love, and I fell hard. Coopurr jumped into my lap and didn't want to leave. He gave me kisses and nearly fell asleep with his head on my leg.
For the next month, it was back and forth. I'd visit him as often as I could, and just kept hoping for some good news on his eye ulcers that just didn't want to heal.
Finally...on April 30 -- one month to the day of Felix's passing -- I officially adopted Coopurr.
After seeing a veterinary ophtalmologist over the course of the spring and summer, I'm very relieved to say that his eye has healed. In fact, he won't even need surgery!
Bio: Coopurr is named after CNN anchor extraordinaire, Anderson Cooper. They're both silver foxes, so the name suits him well. His full name is Coopurr Anderson Hays Vanderbilt Novak.
Coop is a very affectionate kitten, giving lots of kisses and sleeping with me every night.
His energy is astounding. He enjoys playing like a clumsy but tough little boy and changes his favorite toy every day. However, he perfers anything with feathers or any toy that remotely resembles vermin.
He's now settled in his forever home, and gets as much love as he gives. Oh, and he's no longer "Teeny Tiny"!

Cat of the Day, Monday, October 26.
So Meowmmy said that if she gets her act together, she may put up the Crissmiss tree this weekend. Something about she needs it up soon so that she can get some cute seasonal pictures of me for our cards.
She's been talking about this Crissmiss tree thing since she put up the Halloween decorations! And I'm still not quite sure what this thing is. She seems to be worried that there will be problems.
I know what cards are. I got a ton of those for my birthday. They're kinda boring unless you chew on them and shred them all up. And Meowm always takes them off of me when I try to do that! But what do they have to do with pictures?
Meowm said that technically, this is my second Crissmiss, since I was born in October of last year. But she said she's pretty certain that I've never experienced this Crissmiss tree thing.
Should I be worried? And what do I do when the Crissmiss tree is here? Can I chew on it? Will it fit in my mouth?
Meowm also said that I'm in my "chewey" phase -- whatever that is! Man, I've got a lot to learn yet about being a domesticated house cat, don't I?
OK...I copied this from my friend Tasha's diary. Consider yourself tagged if you're reading!
Answer 10 questions, and tell a little about yourself .
Here goes:
1. What is the color of your collar?
When I was in the shelter, I had to wear my hospital tag around my neck. After that, I said to myself that I would never wear one again. However, the Meowm liked the idea, so she tried to get me to wear one. She found it a few days later behind the entertainment center!
2. What kind of food do you eat?
Purina One dry and Purina ProPlan wet.
3. What are your favorite treats?
I love my crabmeat treats and my l-Lysine treats.
4. Do you have a Valentine or a significant other?
Nope. Mewommy sez I'm still a baby and too young for a relationship.
5. Do you get table scraps?
Nope. Never. And she means it.
6. What is your favorite toy?
Oh, so many to choose from...my cat dancers are always fun...my blue mouse and my white mouse...a roll of toilet paper...and...
7. When is your birthday?
October 8, 2008
8. How many times a day do you eat?
Meowmmy works kinda long hours, so I eat wet twice a day -- morning and at night when she comes home. And I have access to dry at all times.
9. Do you have a favorite color?
Blue.
10. Do you hope all your pals put this in their diary?
Absolutely!
If you want to play- copy this into your diary.
Purrs,
Coop
Time for another episode of Coop Sez/Meowm Sez. Today we'll be discussing the latest trauma in Coopurr's otherwise joyful little world: Catster Plus.
Meowm Sez: Coopie, I just did something that I've been promising to do for a few weeks now...
Coop Sez: (Soft chirp, under his whiskers) Yeah...?
Meowm Sez: Want to guess?
Coop Sez: Uhhhhh...make an appointment for the V-E-T to T-R-I-M my N-A-I-L-S? (Aside: She was threatening to do that today...wasn't she?)
Meowm Sez: Noooo, it's too cold and rainy out to take you today. I don't want my little chubs to get a URI...
Coop Sez: ORDERED me a CATNIP PIZZA???
Meowm Sez: No, sweetie. You'll have to wait to see if Santa brings you one...
Coop Sez: OK...um...bought me a whole big pack of toilet paper?
Meowm Sez: No, buddy! I signed up for Catster PLUS! Now we can share even MORE of your darling little picutres with all of your good friends.
Coop Sez: (putting his paw into his mouth) I can...(suckle-suckle) start doing this...(suckle-suckle) when I'm upset, too. (suckle-suckle) Not just when...(suckle-suckle)...I'm being...(suckle-suckle)...sweet lovie Coop...(suckle-suckle)...all snuggly...(suckle-suckle)...and...WHYYYYYYYYYYY?
Meowm Sez: Because I love you so much, and I want to share my lovie little chubby kitten with the whole world...
Coop Sez: Meowm-meeeeee...I HAVE FRINEDS! And this is EMBARASSING! OH, MEW!!! (suckle-suckle) (suckle-suckle) (suckle-suckle) (suckle-suckle) (suckle-suckle) (suckle-suckle)
Meowm Sez: Now, Coopie, everyone is doing Plus. ALL of your friends have it. You should, too!
Coop Sez: I gotta go. Go HIDE. So that you can't take anymore pictures. Or put any more clothes on me. Ever. Again. I'll hide, I swear. And I'll only come out at night when you're sleeping. To eat. And to play with all my toys. I'll hide so hard you won't find me, so help MEW!
And this concludes another episode of "Coop Sez/Meowm Sez." Tune in next time on Coopurr 360...
