Skittles is special in so many ways. He's often the butt of the joke in our family because he's an extremely quirky cat.
He was in the shelter for a while before we got him. My mom said it was likely he'd have been there forever if we hadn't got him, since he didn't seem affectionate at first.
He connected to me immediately and has a habit of yowling and crying loudly outside of doors when he wants to be pet. He's very whiny and cries all the time for everything, and he's spoiled so he usually gets it.
Skittles befriended our outside cat Salem, and chases him around frequently for "fun". Sometimes when he's bullying our other cats too much we pick him up like a baby and carry him around like that, which he likes because he's a brat.
Skittles is highly intelligent, and he's learned to use the toilet and now he prefers that to the litter box.
He's also a bit of a thief, and has learned to get up on counters and open cabinets to get to the treats and catnip. He is a jerk but my whole family loves him anyways.
