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!
