Arrival Story: When I was a kitten, I crawled into Mom's car engine without her knowing it. When she started her engine, my ear was severely burned. She took me to the emergency vet, and he said that the ear would have to be removed. She took me home, gave me a bath, and washed away the flees, grease, and dirt. She took me to the regular vet, and he completely removed my ear and outer ear canal. It took a long time to heal. I had many several surgeries and had to wear an Elizabethan collar for months. Mom and Dad were going to find a good home for me. Fiesta Cat is old, and they didn't want to over-stress him. However, nobody can resist my charms--even Fiesta Cat. So, I soon became a permanent member of the family!!!
Bio: I am very outgoing, and love almost everything and everybody.

The Last Forum I Posted In: My little brother is COTW!!!
Mom & Dad went on a little 24 hour trip. They left us with plenty of food and water. They have only done this one other time since we moved here, and there was no problem that time. They get home, and there is blood on the comforter. So, Mom inspected all of us cats, and she found a cut/contusion on my tail.
So, she grabbed me and put my tail under the water faucet, and took soap, and washed it out. I screamed, of course. Dad came over while Mom held me. He washed the cut out some more. The matted/bloody hair came off, and it started bleeding again.
So, what does Mom do? She gets all lighteaded, nauseous, and faint, and has to go sit down. She leaves Dad with me. He pours hydrogen peroxide on my tail. I scream, and scratch him with one claw. These are pretty deep scratches. Of course, Mom is still sitting down with her head between her knees trying not to faint. And, she says she wants to be a nurse?????!!!?????
So, Mom and Dad look at it more again. It looks like mainly a contusion, with a small cut. I must have gotten it stuck somewhere, and then freaked out. I probably went all whack-o screaming, yelling, and pulling on my tail--making it worse.
I love to get myself into trouble, and love to get myself into tight spaces. That's how I ended up with the one ear, after all. Mom and Dad have no idea how I did this. They can't find the cause of the injury. There is also the possibility that Zuni bit me. However, she has never bit me that hard before.
Anyway, I'm sure you are all wondering how I'm doing. I think I'll be fine. I'm running around like normal, and my tail is flicking the usual way. Mom & Dad will keep it clean, and will take me to the vet at the first sign of infection.
Yeah! I'm so excited about being Cat of the Day!!! My brother has had that honor before, but I haven't! I actually found out last night. Mom was up late and got the exciting email from Catster.
Thank you for all my beautiful rosettes, gifts, & emails!!! I've been getting lots of extra lovin' and petting from Mom.
Hi, friends!
Each of our pages have been updated today. My mom decided to take photos of us this afternoon so that all my Catster friends would be able to see how hard we work! As you can see, I have been working hard at perfecting my sleeping skills. We got this new cat tree about a month ago, and I have been making sure to wear a soft spot in it with my body. It is a great tree--it has two high levels, and a tube towards the bottom. We love to spend the afternoon sleeping in our living room. Today, Zuni & FC are on the couch, and I am on the tree.
I love sleeping; I think I'm an expert. What do you think?
