Beautiful Kiki!

Dearest Kiki, what a beautiful Tuxedo kitty you are! Your black and white fur is gorgeous and looks so soft, and what a sweet face you have with that cute pink nose and those lovely big green eyes. You are absolutely striking in front of all those orange flowers (and who are your little friends in the background?). I wish I could reach through the screen and up to St. Charles to pet you, and pet your little calico friend, too! I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved Purrrson will pet you both for me ;).

And what a story you have to tell! You were a stray cat hanging around near your dear Purrrson-to-be's house. It was the dead of winter, and you looked hungry, so he/she started leaving food out for you. She/he thought you and a more friendly calico cat were living under the porch and keeping each other warm. At first you stayed away from your Purrrson, but as time went on you started to allow him/her to pet you. And then after more time passed, you finally allowed her to pick you up and put you in a carrier! Off to the vet's you went, where it was discovered that you were an intact male, so you were neutered. Your Purrrson found out that your dear calico friend had already been spayed.

You two kitties enjoy each other's company and now live happily in the garage, complete with a cat-door. You have beds and catnip toys and a recirculating fountain for your water source. Your Purrrson had never had a cat before, and she educated herself on what to feed you. You all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!

Congratulations, darling Kiki, on being chosen Cat of the Day! We hope you and your dear calico friend and Purrrson and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats.

Gorgeous!!!

Hello, Kiki and your calico friend up in Michigan! Happy Cat of the Day!

What a handsome tuxedo gentleman you are! I like your sweet face and your black and white markings! I would be glad to pet you if I could - since I can't, though, I hope your person will pet both of you for me!

You and your calico friend were outside kitties, and your person-to-be gradually got you used to receiving food and attention while you were sheltering under the porch. Eventually your person-to-be was able to get you to the veterinarian, and then you were safe! Now you both live in the garage where you have a cat door, toys, beds, and a recirculating water fountain! Your person learned what the best food choices were, and now you both eat a healthy diet. (I imagine you eat kitty treats sometimes, too :love:) I agree with my friend tatsxxx11 - your rags-to-riches story is very heartwarming!

Happy, happy Cat of the Day to Kiki and to your calico kitty friend too! (Calico kitty for Cat of the Day too, please!)

What a beautiful Tuxedo kitty you are, Kiki.

Your story from outdoor life to indoor with you own room is very heartwarming.

Congrats on being CODT, Beautiful Kiki.
