I hope you have as many happy years with yours as I've had with mine -- Cappuccino is going to turn 16 in March!
Like your tortie, she is playful and affectionate but she has a strong and dignified personality all her own. Torties can be a little touchy -- but I think they're more loyal than many cats, and they really just seem to attach closely to their people.
Best wishes,
Carolann
