This is our new cat, Simon. So far, he likes to lounge around with his eyes closed. He’s about 2½ years old and is very friendly. The dogs are fairly ambivalent, and they seem to respect the power of the raised paw.
My wife has more about him on her blog, including how she found him (or did he find her?), but here are the highlights:
- He’s very friendly and mellow. He has rolled over on his back several times to have his belly rubbed, and has been lying in the middle of the floor.
- He can open cabinets and drawers, so we are getting some child locks today.
- He’s very curious and likes to explore.
- He’s young enough that he still plays.
- He likes to be held and purrs a lot.
- He follows us around to see what we’re up to.
And, he doesn’t like to open his eyes for pictures, so most of them look like this…
James Brush is a teacher and writer who lives in Austin, TX. He tries to get outside as much as possible.
I guess the dogs do what Simon says?
He’s a cutie.
He’s beautiful!
White cats are great because you can really tell when they get mad, they turn a darker shade of pink.
George, So far they’re making sure they stay on his good side. They already know that cats are sharp.
Amy, I didn’t know that. Hopefully, he’ll mostly stay white.
