Callie, the Cat of the Day
Name: Callie
Age: Seven years old
Gender: Female
Kind: American Shorthair
Home: Lantana, Texas, USA
 
   This is Callie, doing her own "sit and stand all at once" pose on the stairs. (Image below) She got the name Callie before we adopted her from a work-place buddy trying to find a good home for his girlfriend's cat. She's a good ol' American Shorthair, and a real born and raised Texas gal, living in Lantana, Texas.

    Callie is a bit of a bluff - she is huge but turns and runs if even slightly unsure of the situation. She knows the difference between FedEx, DHL and UPS: she runs away from UPS only we are not sure why. Perhaps, she was UPS'd at one time before we had her? A true bed hog, Callie will wait until everyone is mostly asleep then pounce on the bed and nudge everyone to where she wants them to be.

She opens doors with her paws - when you least expect it (never when you are looking). She has a room clearing glare - she likes to play with a feather toy and "tackles" it!

    Callie has one odd characteristic - she polishes shoes. Nobody knows quite why, but at the end of the "service" I compliment Callie, and she seems satisfied; so I presume that was what I was supposed to do! Good job, Callie!
