Dearest Samwise, what an adorable young man you are! You are simply gorgeous, with beautifully-colored, soft-looking fur and such a sweet face, I would love to be able to reach all the way to Hygiene, CO to pet you! (I hope your Purrrson will give you some from us.) What lovely photographs you have here! and thanks to your Purrrson and you for sharing them with us.

After you were abandoned by some worthless excuse of a "human," we are SO glad that your wonderful Purrrson heard your cries and looked for you, then found you and brought you in to your Furrrever HOME! He/she loves you dearly and is so happy to have you now as part of the family! You make her/him smile as you supervise everything going on, play with the "Cat Toys" iPad app, chase spots of light on the ceiling, and leap up onto passing shoulders to ride around on. You have clearly earned the title of Most Adorable Thing In The Universe! And you even have a 17-year-old kitty roomie to annoy now and hopefully become Best Friends Furrever with before long. What a delightful love-filled home you all share! God bless you all for this wonderful rescue story.

Congratulations, darling Samwise, Your Adorableness, on being selected today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and your cat roomie and your dear, loving human and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine day of celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite treats and games, maybe even some more shoulder-riding!
