What a handsome Maine Coon you are, Boomer - and your coloring looks more lionlike than any I think I have ever seen! That pale golden fur and gold eyes, as well as that impressive mane make it no wonder they nickname you Lion! How wonderful you were there for your Dad when he almost left this earth, and stayed with him though his recovery as best you could! That must have been terribly scary for your dad, mom and you! We are glad that, while you are Dad's buddy, you also help keep your mother warm at night! We are so glad you are the top cat at your house - and today, you are Cat of the Day for the whole world to see! Congratulations again, Boomer!
