Slash

[lynnestankard]

With a name like that - I expected a huge man eater!! What did we get - the most beautiful boy you could wish for. Very Siamese those lovely ears and eyes. He sounds Siamese too - mad energy for all that chasing around. I'd love to hold him and give him a cuddle and nose kiss.
Have a wonderful day special boy Slash - hope it's filled with love and treats (as usual!!:D ) Aren't your Mum and Dad so lucky - they will have so many loving years with you - enjoy. xxx

Slash - you're a beauty - you are my favorite breed - I love the orientals - so sleek and agile and intelligent. Congrats gorgeous on being a very deserving COTD.

Slash, you, like our furrbabies, have obviously met and been in hot pursuit of BEAUVARTS! If your family doesn't recognize them, here's how:

Beware of Beauvarts (You'll recognize them)

Suddenly, out of nowhere, racing at top speed, your cat whizzes by you in a blur of fur. He skids around a corner and you hear him jump on the counter as dishes and jars crash to the floor. Back he comes, straight at you and, at the last possible second, just as you think you are about to be turned into a pummel horse, he changes direction and almost flies up the stairs.

Then nothing. Silence.

You gingerly sneak up the stairs, expecting to find a raging tiger ready to pounce. He's not in the hall. He's not in the bathroom. He's not in the office. He's....he's....lying calmly on your bed looking at you as if to say, "So, what's up?"

He hasn't gone crazy. He doesn't need to see a vet. He has just rid your home of that dasdardly creature, the Beauvart.

Beauvarts are small, furry animals that fly at super-sonic speeds three inches above any horizontal or semi-horizontal surface. Cats hate them. Only cats can see them. You are most likely to be afflicted with beauvarts if you own a Calico, Abyssinian, Siamese, or any kind of kitten. However, even Persians have been known to give wild chase on occasion. And Ragdolls or Maine Coons? Well, having a 20-pound cat chase a beauvart through the house is a truly exhilarating (and sometimes frightening) sight. But hey, after they're done, you don't have a beauvart problem until the next one sneaks in!

Stay on top these creatures, Slash, you beautiful boy!

Bari and the Pride!
(Our thanks to our friend, Sharon, for exposing Beauvarts to us!)

There you are - I've been living with BEAUVARTS all over the house and never even knew :D :D

At last the problem is solved !!!!:D :D

Slash is a stunner. I cannot believe that such a beautiful baby could end up in a shelter! Those fantastic eyes, and the perfect markings - what a boy.

I just want to reach out and pick you right up, Slash, and give you a big cuddle and hear you purr.

You didn't happen to be named after Axl Rose's guitarist, did you? :D Indulge me as I break into this chorus:

Whoa, whoa whoa sweet child of mine...

(In my head I'm dancing like Axl with a bandana on my head as I'm humming this tune)
