Emmie, the Cat of the Day
Name: Emmie
Age: Three years old
Gender: Female
Kind: Tortoise shell
Home: Norwood, Massachusetts, USA
 
   Emmie was picked from a litter by my daughter after she moved out on her own. She got the name because when my daughter saw her as a kitten, she would pose like she had just won the Emmy award although we spell her name differently. When my daughter moved back she brought Emmie with her. Emmie is a very playful cat. She loves to look out the window at the birds and squirrels and just run around our split level house. Her sanctuary is under the dining room table or the rocking chair in my living room. When I am on my computer, she has to jump up, walk across my keyboard then onto my chest where she will cuddle and purr. She does this on an off quite frequently. When I run my ink jet printer, she is right there sticking her nose in to see what is going on. She will chase anything on a string and loves going into empty boxes where she expects us to play with her through the holes in the side of the box.

    Emmie loves doing "pretty paws." When my wife and I come home, she loves rolling around on the floor to show us how pretty she is. Her front paws are curled in front of her body, hence the ' Pretty Paws" pose. She also loves being on high places, shelves, refrigerators, etc. At Christmas time, she loves climbing in the tree.
