Name: Feisty
Age: Five months old
Gender: Female
Kind: Domestic Long Hair

   When Feisty and her brother, Jack, came into my home I figured I was just giving them a loving home. What I hadn't counted on was how quickly the little fluffy bundle of energy would wrap me around her paw. From the very first day she knew what to do that would please me and what wouldn't. I only had to show her the litter box once and she's never had an accident outside of it. Naming her was easy.

    She has this tough attitude that makes you think she doesn't need anyone, but really she is soft hearted and very affectionate, once you get past her kitten aggressiveness. She made it known to my two dogs that she would give as good as she got, so when my big male, Bear, playfully batted her half way across the kitchen the second day in our house she recovered quickly, sprinted back and jumped on his head. They've been best friends ever since.

    One of Feisty's favorite things to do is lay in the plants. She's not supposed to. Yet, I couldn't help snapping this picture, she looked so darn cute. She has brightened my world in ways I hadn't known were possible. She loves to dance with me and be carried around like a child and it fills my heart with the happiness that the simple things in life can bring. I had thought my life was complete with two dogs, but adding two kittens has not only completed it, but has given me a feeling of usefulness and a smile every morning. I love my Feisty cat and all that she gives me.
