THIS MONTH’S KITTY

A Tabby Tux intro

Allow me to introduce myself!

The humans call me a funny sound - Claire. I think it’s acceptable enough! I’ll answer to it when I’m in the mood.

I have many nicknames that the human family makes up on a whim, like Claire Bear - I don’t know what a bear is, but it has a nice ring to it. My life is very interesting - I have 3 siblings and a big brother who is not related to me, but he accepts me and my siblings. And a big creature the humans call a dog is my best friend - they call her Ruby.

Carboard boxes are fun to hide in and drive Ruby crazy!

THE ANTICS

Cat who thinks like a monkey

My humans may not recognize this, but I am queen of the house! I own everything - including these funny straight things my mommy uses to create little marks on this big flat thing. I’m not sure why she does it, but they make the perfect toys! Anything is a toy in my book!

All the attention must be on me, even if that means sitting on my mommy’s stuff so she can sit there and adore me. Well, mommy does the right thing and gives me all the adoration. She tells me I’m a good girl. Of course I’m a good girl! I won’t be told otherwise!

Day to Day Silliness

I may be a bit fussy, but I’m a huge mush! My sister, who the humans call Luna, is my main best friend and I love her so much. My two brothers, Taffy and Boots, are fun to be around but sometimes aggravating. My brothers need a good tussling to remind them who’s in charge around here. And while I love my sister, sometimes she needs a good wrestling and a high-speed chase through the house!

If you haven’t guessed by now, I am a big ball of energy. I love to run around the house, attack the ribbon toy, and stand on the posts of the stairs to express myself with a prolonged hollering. The human mommy and auntie follow that by calling me those funny sounds of Catosaurus Rex and Purrassic Park. Oh, and mommy calls me something else…dinosaur? I still don’t know what that means. What’s a dinosaur?

Cuddly Cuddle-Bug

While I may have lots of energy, I absolutely love to cuddle - on my terms, that is! A few of the humans pick me up when I least expect it…very uncomfortable! They should know by now that I will not be cuddled and held when they want. I make the choice!

And speaking of choices, stealing mommy’s bed is my favorite pastime. There’s this big…window, I think it’s called…in her room where I can see outside. Mommy tried to let me outside with my real mom, but I was too scared to stay out. So now I’m inside living my best life!

If you ask me, living indoors is comfy and fun. I get the best food, though sometimes I’m picky about it.

My Favorite Spot

Lastly, I love to steal the noisy chair the humans like to sit in. It’s a great place to sleep and it only makes noise when they press the little box attached to it. It’s nice to have something all to myself for a while! Though sometimes, it’s fun to flex my claws on the humans as they’re relaxing.

Thank you for listening to my kitty ramblings! I have mayhem to cause - and maybe some loafing 🍞

🔊 Fun Fact: Tuxedo cats aren’t only black and white. They can vary in color to include gray, tabby, and orange tabby. Both Claire and Luna are Tabby Tuxes

HELP SUPPORT THE COLONY

Claire says…

My human mommy needs help affording cat food for everyone! My siblings and I need to eat, and so do the cats I like to communicate with outside. Mommy is always bringing them food, but I often hear her say things like needing more money to afford stuff. What’s money? I’m just a cat; I don’t understand human things.

Donations are always needed and there are two ways you can help:
