I Am A Diva Cat

I am a purebred Siamese. Never mind that my owners found me in a street with a pack of cats. But my beauty helped me stand out from the crowd, and I knew they would select me.

My owners wanted me to live outside and chase rats and mice. They had mice in their attic. I lived outside for a while, and humored them. The rats went next door. I caught a mockingbird once to show off my skills.

Here I am ready to pounce.

I go outside to hunt at night. I don’t tell my owners where I go. That’s my business. They think I chase lizards. I’m fine with that.

I am very good at meowing loudly promptly at 6:00 am. I don’t care that they are retired. They need to feed me when I am hungry.

The dog in the family herds me. I don’t run with the pack like another dog would. I’m too good for that. But I let him lick me two times…
