    Dearest George, what a stunningly beautiful young Tuxedo boy you are! Those eyes are like jewels, an emerald and an opal, in that sweet face of yours, and I love that pretty pink nosie and the white whiskers and eyebrows. You look so content and relaxed in all your photos! I wish I could reach through the screen over to southern Ontario (not far away) to pet you and skritch that little chin of yours.. But since I can't, I'm sure your loving and beloved family members will pet you and skritch your chin for me .

    And what a delightful Purrrsonality you have, too! We are so very glad you and your fellow cats were rescued from that awful situation. (We're sorry that they didn't all survive, and we know those kitties are now Angels at the Rainbow Bridge.) And you certainly knew just who your new Purrrmanent family was and adopted them right away at the shelter! Even though your adopted Pawpie no longer lives with you, he often visits, and you also keep in touch with him by telephone.

    Now you have a terrific home, which you run just the way you like it! You let people know when you require attention by head-butting their hands so they drop whatever they might be holding and can then pet you. You also un-clutter various surfaces by pushing things off them. And when your Purrrson is cuddled up with the doggie, you like to come take a nap on top of the dog. What a wonderful love-filled home you all share!

    Congratulations, darling George, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and your doggie buddy and all your family members and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite treats and games, maybe even a few new things to push off tables!

    Gorgeous George!



    Gorgeous George!

    What a wonderful choice for Cat of the Day! George, I can tell you right now I absolute love your humans.

    My 6 kitties are all rescues. Technically Felix, Rascal and Raven are officially our kitties. But we have three foster kitties: Puss~n~Boots, Oreo and Beauty (the only little girl kittie!).

    So thankful humane societies in Southern Ontario Province rescued you and countless kitties. We have the same problem here in Quebec Province -- kitten/puppy/bunny mills. We're impatiently waiting for the day the Federal Government of Canada enacts tough animal protection laws for all animals: domestic and wild. Laws where puppy/kitty/all pets mills in particular as well as authorized breeders who have not been vetted as humane are on the first offence charged $1,000 per animal in their mill houses of horrors (ditto unethical breeders of specialized breeds of animals) with their businesses immediately closed. Second offence, $50,000 per animal along with 10 year prison sentence with no "time served" consideration. Third time arrested, businesses closed, sentence : Life consecutive sentences per animal up to a total of 100 years in highest security level prison, no parole.

    I think that is fair and also am confident that all lovers of animals, birds, fish -- in fact all living creatures -- will agree with me.

    Live long and happy in your fabulous castle with we are sure you rule with very gentle paws.

    To your humans: Thank you, thank you, thank you.

    KatMa of Felix(9) Rascal(6) Raven(3 - born in our home) and our Fosters: Oreo(4) Puss~n~Boots(4) and the only baby girl, Beauty(3).

    We also feed any stray who comes to dine with the goal of TSR, i.e.: Trap/Sterilize/Release We try to find homes but if we can't, then we Release and pray for the best.

    Dear KatMa, I love your proposed laws there! Any chance the Federal Government of Canada would ever enact them?

    I'd love to see them enacted here too.

    Thank for your wonderful post. Good for you on caring for strays and having your own rescues. I have a dog rescue as well and she and George are great pals, with George, of course, being the boss. The transition to living with me from dad was as kind as it could be on George. Dad stayed here five weeks before moving to my sister's, by which time George had already adapted, bossed the dog around, and considered it home here. When my dad calls, he always asks for George hahaha ... and he visits fairly regularly. In fact, he's coming today for a week to 10 days. He's really an adorable cat although he does love breaking things. He's on a mission but I thwarted him by replacing all the glass glasses he'd broken with plastic. He still knocks things off of shelves and tables but I've put away a few things I don't want to be broken. The rest is just stuff, and I care more about George than I do about stuff. Puppy mills are an abomination. I advocate for shelter animals all the time and show pictures of George and my dog to show examples of how rescue pets love you hard, because deep down inside, they know you've saved them. Thank you again.

    Gorgeous George!

    Hi gorgeous George! Happy Cat of the Day to you!

    What a beautiful Tuxie boy you are! Your black and white coat is gorgeous, your amazing, bi-colored eyes breathtaking, and oh, how cute is that pink nose! But as beautiful as you are, George, it's your spunk, your fighting spirit, that makes you the extra special boy that you are! Yes, you certainly were dealt a poor hand at life early on, but given a 2nd chance, you turned that poor hand into a lottery winner, ultimately winning the forever home jackpot! And how wonderful that you and your daddy still keep in touch!!! I'm sure he misses you dearly, but what a comfort for him, knowing that forever and always you will be loved and cherished by family! You truly are one extra special boy, George, one in a million, and your family so very lucky to have a best friend for life in you!


    Thanks for ending my day with a BIG smile and warm heart, George! I hope you're enjoying a very happy, fun filled Cat of the Day bash, being treated to all your heart desires and more! Lots of love, cuddles and kisses to you, beautiful George!



    Star,Tigg'r , Mollie and the10 Gallon Gang!

    Hello George, it's a pleasure to meet you. You are very handsome! What a rough start in life you had but you survived. I enjoyed all the photos. I'm so glad you have a forever home where no doubt you are in charge. It sounds as if you are very loving and have a strong personality and know what you want and do whatever to get it LOL. I hope you have many happy healthy years with your family. Congrats on being COTD!

    Thank you very much for your kind words. He definitely has a strong personality and knows how to manipulate everyone by just looking at us with those amazing eyes. Sorry for the late reply but I completely missed the email announcement in the Christmas rush of things (I guess). I found out only yesterday, March 12! Yikes! He did indeed have a rough start in life but he pulled through. He's loving and friendly and steals treats for his dog sister. They're kept up high. He tears the bag and drops them down to her! hahaha Anyway, thank you again. Your kind words are appreciated.

    Thanks to all from George, the blue & green-eyed cat

    I'd like to thank Cat of the Day for selecting George for posting on Dec. 27. I somehow missed the notification and just found out on March 12, so apologies to you. Thank you also to all the people who took the time to post lovely messages for and about George. I have sent a reply to all who did.

    Thank you for your post. It was a beautiful one to read. Forgive me not replying sooner but I only just found out (my fault!) that George had been selected Cat of the Day. The email must have been missed during the hectic days of the Christmas - New Year's season as he was posted Dec. 27. I only found out yesterday on March 12! George is very happy here, and always likes to see his daddy. Dad does miss him, yes, but he phones and I hold the phone to G's ear and he listens. Hahaha so cute. He's got me (I was there the day he was adopted) and was already used to me, and Dad spent five weeks here to transition George slowly. Two weeks was enough because by then he was already calling it home, and bossing the dog (and me) around. Thanks for saying he won the jackpot coming into our family. Dad made my sister and I promise that one of us would take him if need be (my dad is elderly) and of course we did. I feel fortunate that when time came for his selling up and moving, Dad picked me to have George. He and the dog are good pals and is also a rescue. They both retain behavioural quirks obviously learned in their earlier living conditions. When George breaks something I just look at him, he looks at me, I clean it up and that's that. I swear he's testing me! Anyway thank you for your very kinds words.

    He's definitely unique alright! The eye condition is called heterochromia iridium and is usually found only in pure white cats, and rarely even then. No one knows his odds of being a tuxedo with two different coloured eyes. I shall pass on the kisses and head butts! Thank you.

    Thanks for your kind reply. My dad stayed for five weeks to help transition George and since he's known me too the whole time he's been adopted, it was as good a transition as could be expected. My dad visits for a week at a time so they still have their precious times together. Long before dad moved to my sister's, he was calling this place home and himself the boss!

    Thank you for your sweet reply. Yes, George did indeed pick us. My dad had his heart set on a calico that day, then George climbed up him, wrapped himself around his neck and started to purr. It was love then. His eyes captivated me right away and I love looking at him each day. He's a destructive little thing! His current tally is 3 lamps, a laptop, two glass screens on tablets and all the glassware. We now use plastic glasses hahaha ... anyway he loves the sound of things breaking and always has so it's something from his previous life. I have a rescue dog too, who's got a few quirks of her own too. Anyway all I have to do is look into those gorgeous eyes and all is forgiven!
