Ralphie, the Cat of the Day
Name: Ralphie
Age: Eight months old
Gender: Male
Kind: Orange Tabby
Home: Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA
 
   Hi, my name is Ralphie. The big human I call Dad says he named me after a TV character called Ralph Kramden who was played by Jackie Gleason on "The Honeymooners." I first met my new family when I was nine weeks old and staying at the Humane Society. After a short time walking all over and around them I fell asleep on Dad. That was all it took to get a ride to my new house.

    I found out then that I was not the only cat in this family. They also had a fifteen-year-old black and white short hair named George. He's a lot of fun to play with. I chase him around the house nipping him in the hindquarters when I want him to play, but he keeps running away from me, so I usually stop after a few minutes and find something else to keep me entertained. I've gotten very good at running though the house and jumping up on things I shouldn't, but it's fun!

    The family likes it when I sit up on my hind legs, or carry one of the big stuffed animals around to play with, and I also enjoy jumping up on the railing over the stairs. Occasionally, I like pushing small things off the desk in Mom's craft area to get her attention, but mostly I really like it when they open the sun porch and I can lie around and watch the birds that come over to get some food from the bird feeder.
