Hi there beautiful Esther! Happy Cat of the Day to you! With that stunning, sleek and shiny black coat you are the perfect choice for our Halloween week top cat honors, and it's clear you definitely know how to cast a spell on we humans! And I'm loving that shot of you posing by your pumpkin; the orange sets of your blackness to perfection!

You know Esther, even before I finished reading your story I thought the same as your Mommy...it was a set up! Well, that former "family's" loss is your family's great gain!!! As they say, the best things in life are often those we didn't know we wanted, needed, weren't looking for....but somehow find us! OK, so you ended up NOT being that coveted lap cat, but something tells me you knew just what you were doing as you worked your magic that day you plopped on your Daddy's lap! What a wonderful, serendipitous addition you are to your family; they are so lucky to have a beautiful, loving furkid in you!

Enjoy a very happy Cat of the Day, beautiful Esther, celebrating with your Mommy and Daddy and your upstairs and downstairs fursibs! And please have your Mom give you a hug and kiss for me!
