Tanner, the Cat of the Day
Name: Tanner
Age: One year old
Gender: Male
Kind: Orange Tabby
Home: USA
 
   Tanner is special because one day we were cleaning and saw a mouse and because my mom hates mice, so we decided to get a cat! We had gone to the animal shelter looking at a cat named Molly. But when we had met Molly she wasn't exactly what we wanted so we looked at another cat named Dublin! We met him and really wanted him so we took him home!

    We had decided to rename him Tanner because Dublin was hard to say and its a city, not a kitty, and Tanner seemed to fit him better. He learned his name right away, too. We had put him and all his stuff in my dog's old kennel and we had just left it to him! We wanted to wait until we could make a good introduction to our dog before we let him loose. When I had gone down to say good-night I had put my hand on a dead mouse! Tanner had killed a mouse in his kennel that first night! It was like he wanted to tell us we made the right choice!

    Soon we let him meet our dog and let him roam around the house. Now all the mice are gone, and Tanner is retired from his "job." Now he spends his time watching birds, rabbits, and other creatures from his perch on a window sill! He is a great cat, and we love him!
