Precious Pom! And little Pickle too!
Quote:
I would like to introduce Pom. He is around three years old (not really sure as he is a rescue cat). We believe he is a Bombay cat because of his large size, intelligence and glossy coat. We live in Whitby, Ontario, just East of Toronto in Canada. What makes Pom special is his compassion toward his younger brother and his high intelligence. Pom very quickly became aware of the outside world and begged me to go outside, so I purchased a harness and walked him in a small part of our neighborhood every day. We have groundhogs, coyotes and foxes living here so I couldn't let him walk alone. After a few months I decided to ditch the harness and surprisingly Pom does not leave my side when we go for our walks.
We are not sure how long he has as he has a heart condition, but he is very strong and adventurous. It is called a "type 4" condition where the heart skips a little when beating. He's a very fit, strong cat so we are not too worried.
Pom likes to jump on my back when he wishes to go somewhere and sits on my chest when I lie down on the bed. He is also very kind towards our youngest cat and usually lets him eat his food if little Pickle finishes his meal first.
Happy New Year to you!!
Hello, Pom up in Ontario and hello to sweet Pickle too! Happy New Year and Happy Cat of the Day!
What a gorgeous fellow you are! I like your shiny, glossy black fur and your cute, out-stretched paws! *kiss* for neatly extended paw
You are a very intelligent cat! You learned about the outside world and let your person know you wanted to check it out for yourself. At first you took walks while wearing a harness, and now you have learned to walk with your person without needing the harness! You can check out what's going on out there. You let your person know you would like to go somewhere by jumping up to her/his back! When it is time for sleep, you place yourself on your person's chest. You are an outstanding big brother to Pickle, providing cuddles and sharing your dinner! Best of all, both of you are loved kitties!
Happy, happy Cat of the Day to dear Pom, and love to Pickle too! Happy New Year, sweet kitties!
