Talking Cat
Well, most of the time Tigger is a "Talking Cat." He's sitting at my feet right now and giving me that "pay attention to me" meow. He's not shy either. Anyone coming to visit has to pet him.
I got Tigger from the SPCA. That was an experience. They don't keep the cats in seperate kennels. They put them all in one room. A big room with nothing but cats and claws. I was actually a little nervous about going into the room and I love cats. Kittens were playing with my shoe laces, other cats looking to be held, some more aloof. But Tigger, he walked up to me, stretched his front paws up and put them gently on my leg and meowed. He owned me.
Tigs has this weird thing about mornings and late afternoons. Greg thinks he's just trying to warm up, but I think he's trying to get daily exercise. Tigger will dash from one side of the house to the other side as if it's imperative, absolutely needed that he get there as fast as his legs can skitter across the tile floors. (Have you seen a cat not get traction? It's like watching a cartoon!)
Normally I can get good pictures of him, but he just didn't want to cooperate to well with the camera video. Also, Tigs will come running when I call him or "meow" on commend if I'm talking to him, but he was being camera shy.
Just thought I'd take a light hearted moment to share him with ya'll. Oh and if you listen closely, you can hear Greg laughing about the "4 inches" on my blog. It was his first time reading what I wrote. (And if the house is a mess in the background, oh well.. it's the office room. That's happens!)

I always feel sad at those places, 'cause I can't take 'em all!
Hi Lmerie ~ You got that right! He was just not going to let on. Lol
Hi Kel ~ Isn’t it wonderful to adopt a cat from the SPCA? Tigger’s story was that the lady who owned him passed away at the age of 30 and her parents couldn’t keep him. He is a sweetie and I felt so bad for him – from going to his original owner’s home to the SPCA. He’s owns this house now. Lol
Hi Dr Wifey ~ I think so too!
HI Tabitha Blue ~ Oh, he’s a friendly cat. Definitely not one to hide. If someone comes into the house, he has to be introduced!
Hi Annie ~ Tigs appreciated the behind the ear rub! I love Siamese too.
Hi Brandy ~ HA HA HA… because you’re right, it didn’t end after the recording stopped. LMAO.
Hi Lilly ~ Aww, you are too sweet! Greg gives me a lot to laugh about in life. Ohhh yeah, in fact, if I post something, he’ll say, “You need to tell me that you posted on your blog. I have to know these things.” Hehe.
Hi Lauren ~ I found out about Siamese and noisy after I got him. In the morning, after his daily run, he walks around and inspects the house and meows into each room!
Hi AmyJean ~ Thank you and I’ll definitely check out the bride blogger!
Hi Deborah Godin ~ “the rips” ~ love it. I’m just glad he’s not the only cat that does this. Greg couldn’t get over it the first time it happened!
Hi Carrie ~ Hehe. I think he’s not going to let me live down the 4 inches for a while yet. Lol.
Hi Sucharita Sarkar ~ Oh yes, he does have personality. He actually enjoys being around people. When I type on the computer, Tigs likes to be on the top of the green sofa next to my desk. He’s a sweetie.
Hi Kelly ~ Lol. I know – he kept looking from side to side. He just didn’t want to play with the camera. As though Tigs was thinking, “I just KNOW she’ll use this to blog.” Thanks for sharing your blog site address.
Hi Gary ~ you make me laugh! Yeah, Tigger is my baby!
Hi Watercolor ~ I agree! He has beautiful blue eyes and I love the steel tipped chocolate colors.
Hi Nikki ~ Awww – how sweet of you to say that!
Hi Bfs ~ Isn’t it sad? Greg won’t let me go to Petsmart when they have adoption days, because he knows I’d just have to bring one of them home.
Mine is the same way.
Cats have their unique personal;ities and they usually come out when I am sleeping and Frick is doing the Canada Grand Prix around the house while i sleep.
i just love cats. :)
i have a deep love for siamese. although none of my current cats are siamese, one day i hope to get another.
