Mom
enjoys telling the story about how she saw my picture when I first arrived
at the animal shelter and fell in love with me on the spot. She said I had a
face that could launch a thousand ships. I don't know what a ship is but it
sure sounds good. She tells me that dad didn't want me at first but after she
worked on him some and he thought about it he changed his mind. Dad came to
the shelter and I reached out my paw from my cage and tapped him on the
shoulder and he turned around and saw me and fell in love with me too and took
me home. He didn't tell mom he was getting me and you should have seen the
look on her face when she came home from work and saw me. I still don't know
what a ship is but I bet her expression could have launched a thousand of
them.
My name is Pumpkin because I am the totally orange tabby cat with liquid gold
eyes. Mom calls me her little "Pumpkin Seed" and dad calls me "The
Pumpkinator." My parents tell me I am the coolest cat on the planet earth. I
guess it's because nothing fazes me and I am reputed for my composure and
serenity.
I like to play especially with the others like me in our household. My two
brothers and I play games together like hide and seek and tag-you're-it and
let's see who can shred the newspaper the fastest. I'm your typical redhead
and I like to tease everyone but it's all in fun. I like to taunt my sister
to hear her hiss and spit but we both know that I would never harm her.
If I like you I will give you a little head butt and if you like me you will
give me a head butt back. I like to curl up in the cool bathroom sink when it
is hot outside. I like it when mom and dad get up in the middle of the night
to go to the bathroom and I surprise them by suddenly rising from my porcelain
surroundings. I like hiding under things then springing out at whoever walks
past and making them jump. I really like treats and will come running when I
hear the treat canister being shaken. I like catnip a lot too... it
makes me feel good. Catnip makes me silly at first then I get all gooney and
lazy. Living here is good - I really like my life now and wouldn't leave this
place for the world.
