Name: Floyd
Age: Five years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Red Tabby
Home: Chula Vista, California, USA
 
   Hello! My name is Floyd! My daddy gave me that silly name when I showed up on his doorstep at ten weeks old, but mommy says I have grown into it! I am a big old Tom cat, weighing in at twenty pounds. My hanging tummy swings back and forth when I chase my play mice down the hallway, but that's okay. It doesn't bother me, but it does make mom laugh. My favorite pastime in the whole world is eating my brother and sister's food! It doesn't really matter to me that they eat the same thing as I do. The minute one of them finishes, I abandon my own food, even if there is some left, and go eat theirs. It just tastes better! My best friend in the whole world, Dexter, doesn't care if I steal his food, but my sister, Jasmine doesn't like it one bit. She growls, hisses, swipes, and screams at me, but I just sit down and wait for her to walk away. And then I pounce!

    My mom and dad love me so much that they even remodeled their living room to match the color of my eyes! Just look at this great chair they bought! It matches my eyes perfectly! Mom and dad have also provided me, Dexter, and Jasmine (also Red Tabbies) with thirteen cat trees in the house, lots of windows to watch birds, a cat colony outside that they feed, so we can watch them, raccoons and opossums! When I was outside I was the ultimate hunter, nabbing birds, rats, lizards, and even a hummingbird. Mom wasn't too happy about that one and made me drop it! But she loves me very much and I thank her every day by letting her comb me, scratch me, rub me all over, and give me love whenever I ask for it (which, by the way, is whenever I can get her attention!).

   I am one lucky and loved cat!!!
