The Boneless Wonder strikes again…

“The real measure of the day’s heat is the length of a sleeping cat.”
— Charles J. Brady, as quoted in the 365 Cats a Year calendar 2005

Cat enough for ya?

14 pounds, that’s a big cat. Leo likes being carried around but if he got to be 14 pounds i’m not sure that would be happening very much or at least not for very long. Glad your big boy is doing okay. I’m glad everybody likes my baby, I like him too. Except when i’m really tired and he wants to play attack the feet under the covers.

eep! i like this cat so much! reminds me of my maine coon. (sp?) only he was tabby color. eep! i love yellow cats! XD

Who said it was a dog’s life?

Jennica – thanks, my “big” Cletus seems to be ok now. He’s a 14 pound big ol’ baby. )

And I was *just* listening to a cd last night about spiritual stuff, and it said pets can *definitely* come back to their person as another animal. So Leo could very well be Taffy. Kind of woo-woo, but hey, it works for me!

He is wonderful. I am slowly turning him into a smooshball loverbug. He’s a tough guy though and doesn’t like too much snorgling. I’m wearing him down. He WILL be a snorglekins. He sleeps with his mouth hanging open the tiniest bit. Once while he was asleep I put my pinkie finger in his mouth and he didn’t wake up at all..which was a little creepy. I believe in reincarnation too. My orangey cat Taffy passed on in 2003. Sometimes I think Leo is Taffy…he reminds me of her sometimes and he did come back to me a bunch of times. But…who knows. Hope your little Cletus is okay.

Jennica – way to go, girl! He’s wonderful!

I am luckily (most of the time) owned by Leo also called Leopold or puppy because he acts like one. I think he does have some Maine Coon in him because he is so big for his age. He’ll be 11 months on the 15th and he was 10 pounds when I weighed him a month or so ago. He eats…ALOT. He eats so much and gets so grumpy when he doesn’t eat that he now has his own dedicated bowl of dry food that is never empty. His favorite food is fancy feast although he will come running if he hears me opening the occasional jar of meat baby food.

I am not his original owner. One day he showed up at my apartment complex (with no collar) and I took care of him for a week until I found his owners add online looking for him. I tearfully gave him back. Two weeks later he was back again with a collar this time. I called his family again and sadly gave him back. Two weeks after that he came back and I kept him for a week debating the legality of cat theft. He slept in a little rain shelter on my steps : ( I wrote his former mom a letter pleading with her to let him stay and she sadly agreed saying that it was obviously where he wanted to be. He’s been part of mine and Sasha’s family since 04-27-2006.

I know you might have a hard time believing this but he is actually the wildest cat I have ever met. He does the post poopy mad dash around the apartment like he’s all proud of the humongous turds he just did. He gets the morning and evening crazies where he runs full out all over and under and behind the furniture. He bites toes, shins, arms and noses. The reason all the pictures are of him sleeping is because if he’s not sleeping he’s a blur usually doing something that requires me to say “Leo NO.” He’s still a baby though so i’m hoping and praying that he’ll calm down a little. He is also one of the sweetest cats I have ever known. He gives kisses and walks around meowing if he can’t find me. He hasn’t slobbered that I have noticed but maybe he just needs to work on that one.

He does love the AC which has been a necesity here in Santee, CA lately. It was 112 the other day. I think he would lay in weird positions no matter what though, it’s just part of his personality. He’s a very confident boy.

I’m glad you all liked the pictures except for the one who said he’s not cute *narrows eyes.* He is on the site and has been deemed cute. I checked the first couple days after I e-mailed pictures and then got busy with family visiting and had no idea he got on here. My sister called and told me. So proud, my little wild man got on cuteoverload : )

Oh and by the way…*sigh*..I really hate saying this but he doesn’t like shoeboxes. He likes packing boxes…he likes biting off lots of little tiny bits and dragging the bits ALL OVER the apartment on his furry tummy. BTW..Sasha is my sweet little persian girl who Leo loves to chase.
