I'm betting the dark gray and white hairball who just deigned to grace me with her presence could give your "Kitty" a run for her money.
Awwwwwwwwwww . . . what a sweet kitty...
I'm actually glad there are some such hairballs. I was told a while back that there is no such thing, that every cat owner ... OK, everybody who's ever been owned by a cat ... she'd ever met would say that while all other cats are aloof and non-affectionate, their own cat is the most lovingest, sweetest disposition, blah blah blah.
GinaCattabridgida could be very aloof, we used to call her MissPrissyButt, and then when YetiGirl came along we started calling her PBJ -- MissPrissyButtJr. However, when she wanted anything, good grief -- Gina transformed into MissCongeniality. She used to cadge treats all over the neighborhood. Then came the darkest day of her life -- we moved into a little subdivision eight miles out of town where there were no older folks at home all day. She was probably mad at us the rest of her life. She got her revenge, though -- she taught PBJ how to transform from Gracie Hart into Miss Congeniality Gracie Lou Freebush in an eyeblink.
