Dearest George, you are stunning! What an absolutely gorgeous gentleman cat you are in your tuxedo complete with white gloves and spats! That grey and white fur is so pretty and looks so very soft, and what a sweet face you have with those long white whiskers and lovely big green eyes. Thank you for sharing all those great photos with us! They show you off so well in so many different poses and actions. In that first one of you lying on your back, are you asking for a tummy rub? I wish I could reach through the screen and over to Somerville, NJ to rub it (only if you want it rubbed, of course) and pet you. I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved Purrrsons will rub your tummy (only if you want it rubbed, of course) and pet you for me .

And what a delightful story you have to tell! You were a stray who grew up on the "mean streets" along the Jersey Shore. You picked your human marks (your Family-To-Be) perfectly, crashing their backyard barbecue and settling on their laps. The rest is history! Now you are in charge, scheduling your family members tightly so all the important tasks are done on time (that 4:52 am wakeup routine is ingenious!).

You are full of energy and make your dear Purrrsons, and all who meet you, smile with your antics. You love chasing and being chased, and lying on your special bubble-wrap sheet. You enjoy olives both to eat and to kill. You are also very affectionate, the lappiest lap cat who ever demanded a lap! You love people and will settle down amidst them at parties to demand homage. On occasion you will play your little trick of rubbing against someone, purring away and smothering the person with love.. then sinking your teeth into his/her arm! (I know a cat just like that!) You and your dear Purrrsons all love each other very much, don't you. As they say, "..so much it sometimes feels like our hearts will burst." 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 dear Purrrsons and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats.
