Casper
|
As you can see, Casper is a strikingly handsome fellow, elegant and
poised. He was one of 11 kittens our slutty neighbor cat begat three
years ago. We adopted him and one of his sisters, and they were devoted
to each other until her tragic and untimely departure. He spends his
time patrolling his beat - the UCSB horse stables, the field near the
stairs in IV, the neighbors' yards. Sometime he brings home a live mouse
to amuse himself, letting it go in the house and then following it
around. He prefers to drink water from a glass, dipping his paw and
licking it repeatedly if he can't get his face to the water. Like, 50
times in a row. He sits on a chair at the kitchen counter to get his
daily ration of tuna. I met a fellow from Carp in the library who also
has an orange tabby named Casper -- what are the chances?
