Wow - what a story. How lovely that this little guy won you over. He is utterly gorgeous - just look at his face while he helps with the bed making! Housework would a joy with Cole on hand.
Congratulations, Cole! You are one special kitty and my day is all the better for seeing your beautiful face!
Can't think of a better advert for rehoming kitties! You can help with my housework any time you like precious Cole
Cole and my Boo would make a great team; Boo loves to help me make the bed in exactly the same way. It's so wonderful that you and Cole found each other. He's a beautiful boy and helpful, too. Enjoy your day as COTD, Cole. :)
You are so right; adopting a kitty from a shelter returns your love tenfold! They are SO grateful for a home, and in turn you receive unconditional love for a lifetime. Sounds like a great investment to me! Enjoy your life with Cole; and Cole, enjoy your special day today; take it easy, and forget about that housework for a day!
What a wonderful story -- and what a great photo! Cole is SUCH a gorgeous guy.
Blessings to you for opening your heart and home to an adult cat; as you've already seen, they pay you back many times in love, companionship, and housekeeping assistance...:)
Congratulations to Cole for having found such a wonderful home, and for being our COTD!
Dear Colemeister,
what a sweetie! your photo is simply lovely first because of your beauty and second because of the composition: kudos to the photographer!
Adopting an adult cat is indeed a great thing to do, though it sometimes takes a little more love and patience. The latest addition to our krazy kat household, Black Jack Chirac, was a stray and it took us a full two years to turn its wild, scared, aggressive instincts into a fat, cuddly, ton of cat.
You made my day Cole! You are a great COTD and your humans rock just as much!!!

What a precious face on that boy!! Cole, you are just too darn cute, and I would love it if you'd be helping me around my house as well, lol! It looks like you are an expert bed maker too!
Kisses and scritchies to you sweetie, and congrats on being Cat of the Day today!
What Cole's Mom wrote is so true!! There are so many treasures waiting patiently for a forever home!!! Cole, you are so lucky to be so loved. HAPPY COTD!!!
Oh Coly, thanks for being the new spokes-kittie for shelter cats. If even 1 cat gets adopted into a life like the one you've found...you (and your humans :)) will have done a GREAT job! I will ask you the same question I ask Moon and Bean (both shelter cats) all the time: "How did your life get so good?". So glad it did, sweetie! Have a great day as COTD and can you go make my bed? hehe :)
Cole you have for sure some Russian Blue traits- especially being slim and incredibly cute. Plus being soooo helpful. Filou and Tigris who also like making the bed send their congrats to you :)
Cole you certainly are adorable!!! :love:
I love your bed making style!!! That has to be the most adorable picture I've seen in a long time!!! :D
I hope you are having a wonderfully fun day and getting spoiled rotten.
Congratulations, sweetie, on being our special Cat of the Day!!!:D
Cole may not be a pure-bred Russian Blue but he sure is a pure-bred cat!
Aren't they all?
You need to get another cat, so that when Cole gets under the sheets like that, it can pounce on him from the other side.
This will be great fun.
Well, tomorrow morning the Frostfrog leaves on one of his many trips. So I will not be ignoring you Cats of the Day that will appear while I'm gone, I will just be gone, that's all.

Thanks to everyone for their kind words from all over the world today.
When I got home from work I read all the posts aloud to Cole and my husband. We were humbled and humoured by your kindness and Cole loved every minute of it as you can see by his contented demeanor.
Love Cole's Mom

Super Adorable! That is a very cute little grey face and I'd cover it with kisses :)
THIS IS THE KIND OF STORY THAT MAKES ME SO PROUD TO BE A PET TALKER. I WISH MORE PEOPLE COULD SEE THE POTENTIAL IN AN OLDER SHELTER CAT AND STOP CONCENTRATING ON KITTENS.

Young kitty Cole
is a very rambunctious soul
and a very rambunctious soul is he.
He called for the maid
and then he called for his mom
and then he decided to make his bed himself.
