Forrest is a sweetie but he is very particular. He wants to snuggle on his own terms only. He gets very agitated if anyone picks him up to carry him around but after dinner he loves to cuddle close on the couch and knead his paws. If someone comes visiting, he will tolerate their presence on his couch but if he senses a rainstorm blowing up he will hide under the table or a chair. He loves to chase his "brother from another mother" Ozzy, and is usually the instigator. Forrest is also the only cat I have had that does really like to lap up water. He dips his paw in the bowl and licks the water off.

He loves to jump and dance and chase a feather on the string, get a good brushing when he is in the mood, but his favorite thing is sunbathing in the window, and keeping tabs on everything going on inside and outside from his perch on the back of the sofa. His most favorite time is dinnertime, of course. When he hears the can pop open, he chases himself around in a circle or two from all the excitement, then comes to attention at the dinner plate! When he doesn't get his meals on schedule, he gets agitated and turns any newspaper that happens to be around into confetti. We love him!
Oh, Forrest! What a gorgeous kitty you are! And busy, too -- sunning yourself in the window, keeping tabs on everything happening around you, playing with your feather toy, and games of chase with brother Ozzy! Then it is dinner time, and you make certain dinner is absolutely on schedule! I like your blue eyes, your cute pink nosie and your wonderful markings. Your coat looks so soft to pet! You are such a handsome boy! Please allow your people to give you some extra petting from me today and some for Ozzy too! Happy Cat of the Day to you, Forrest!
