I'm looking for a cat like the one I left with my ex-wife & son:
Three weeks after being declawed (front paws only), she escaped from the house and ripped the bejeezus out of another cat. Many years later, they have some sort of understanding. Became a semi-outdoor cat, but stays on the property. However, if my son goes skateboarding, she stalks him from behind bushes up & down the street, but stays out of the street and always returns home when he does. Got beat up by a squirrel once, and now chases them only for sport. When bulbs are planted on that property, they stay planted. Makes all sorts of noise if she notices anything moving outdoors at night. Not enough noise for someone outside to hear, but enough for people to be aware of something going on. If someone could isolate THAT gene, they could breed and sell cats like that to every gun owner in America. At age 3, she was lounging on the picnic table when a stray Great Dane trotted over to sniff her. She sent it home with a large gash that required stitches to repair. I have no idea how, since she only had claws in back. We just heard a snarl, a bark, and saw the bloody dog as it turned to leave. Whatever the case, any cat that'll redesign a dog's face just for fun is a valuable cat to have. Incidentally, the dog catcher agreed to not fine the owner for the stray violation (apparently the 2nd violation), if the owner didn't bug us for money to cover the stitches. The only cat food she'll eat is plain, dry Purina. She'll suggest that people share tuna or salmon with her, and insists on being given about 1/4 of a slice of cheese once every couple of weeks. She's now 10 years old. The vet says she's the healthiest cat she's ever seen. Indoors, she's still as playful and affectionate as when she was a kitten. Totally schizophrenic. The perfect cat. |
