   My cat is special to me because she runs to greet me at the door each day when I get in from work, and will usually lie across my shoulder while I'm putting up groceries, or doing whatever. She is a great comforter and friend to have.

    She is very affectionate at times, but mostly independent. She plays fetch with whatever she can find lying around. She loves milk rings, the tabs that come from the tops of coffee creamers and, well, anything small and plastic that she can bat around the floor. She brings me whatever her toy for the moment is, then runs and waits for me to throw it. I throw it and she takes off after it and plays alone for a few minutes with it and then brings it back for me to throw it again. My mother says she thinks she's a dog. :)

    She loves to sit and watch the birds, chipmunks and squirrels that congregate on the back porch every morning and she chatters at them - there is no telling what she is saying to them. She loves to help me with my chores like making the bed... She gets in the middle of the bed and refuses to move after I put the bottom sheet on and I usually have to wait until she is bored with that until I can start with the top sheet. Sometimes it is an all day thing. :) She is my heart and soul!

    Oh, one more thing that just cracks me up. Well, there are several, but I don't think you are looking for a book! She runs down the stairs each morning at 6:30 and waits for me to open the door so she can see the light moving up and down the wall from the window at the top of the door, so she can chase it. I have to open and close the door several times before I can go to the kitchen to feed her.
