Raisin, the Cat of the Day
Name: Raisin
Age: Two years old
Gender: Female
Kind: Cat
Home: Alaska, USA
 
   I think my little kitty Raisin deserves to be a honored. I rescued her from a no-kill kitty shelter about six months ago as I couldn't leave her there, she was just too cute. She was, and still is, very underweight though. A visit to the vet was definitely needed. We learned that she has a heart arythmia and may only live to be four or five since it is pretty severe. So I am going to make sure she lives a happy life for the time that we have together.

    She is around two years old, not sure exactly what breed. She's taking a nap next to me right now.

    Here is why Raisin is special to me. She loves to sleep with me every night and sometimes I wake up during the night and she is cuddled up against me with her face right next to mine. In the mornings she keeps me company in the bathroom while I shower, then follows me back to my room to hang out while I get ready for work. She meows to let me know she wants some breakfast, and as I'm walking to the kitchen loves to run in between my legs and try to trip me. She has already been accidentally kicked a few times because of this, but will learn eventually, I hope.

    I bought her a harness and leash so we can go for walks outside, today we saw a horse, and I learned that Raisin is not a big fan, so that ended our walk.

    I took this picture while she was relaxing in the window, it was the cutest thing I have seen her do yet. I hope you think she is as adorable as I do.
