Hash Browns

I'll be talking about my favorite cat of all time today since I don't personally own any pets (yet). Hash Browns is one of my friend's cat and he is one of the friendliest and cutest cat I have ever encountered in my life. Sometimes he acts strangely and would do things that a typical cat wouldn't. I was told that it might be because he was abandoned when he was still a kitten and was not taught properly. He loves belly rubs and would often flop on its side right in front of you. After meeting Hash Browns, it has definitely gotten me more comfortable being around cats and maybe I will adopt one in the future.

Zaphod

This is Zaphod Beeblebrox and he is the president of the universe. I did not grow up in a house with pets so he is the only pet that I have ever had. I was not instantly on board with the thought of getting a cat but Sarah pleaded for a couple of years until I finally gave in. He is a rescue, we got him almost seven years ago when he was six months old. We think his early life was pretty rough. He hid in the bathroom behind the toilet for a week when we first got him. Now a days he pretty much runs the house, but he does hate closed doors. If any door is closed he will scratch and meow at it until it is opened. His other hobbies include sleeping (in random places and positions), opening doors (he reaches under the door and pulls or catches his paw on the lip of the cabinets and opens those too), "talking" (he does not really meow, his noises are shorter and more aggressive), hiding (at even the slightest noise or if any one other than close family is in the house), swatting at my wife or I if we walk by him and most importantly eating/begging for treats.

Mt cats

As it stands, I have something of a farm/zoo going on at my house. We have five goats, three cats, two chickens, two dogs and one pig. So that’s about thirteen animals that we have. But to keep this rather short and sweet Ill stick to my favorite type of domesticated animals, my house cats. Two of them were rescue cats and one just walked in one day and never left.

The one that walked in is our only male cat. I’m not sure of his age but he’s what you would call a mouser. His name is Genghis Khan. When we gave him that name, we had no idea how fitting it would be because his favorite activity is hunting for pray. Like I said. He’s what’s called a mouser. But don’t let his little murdering ways get you to thinking he’s a mean cat. He’s a huge love bug and he sleeps 95% of the time.

Next we have our Boobahs. I found her about three years ago abandoned near my old workplace. She was about three to four weeks old at the time. In the time that she’s been living in our house she’s developed a weird personality. She’s not big on affection but loves having her chin rubbed, but she will straight up push your hand down/away if she does not want to be touched. She’s big on personal space…Well her own personal space. Shell lay right on your face if she feels so inclined.

Finally, our newest baby! Purrsephone. This little baby came to us due to someone tossing her out of their moving car. A friend of mine found her and came to us for help. Since we had already hand raised Boobahs we decided to do it again for this little. She was about five weeks old and a purr machine. She tends to want to be right in my face and she will sleep under my chin whenever she gets the chance. Its been a bit of an adjustment for our other cats but they are starting to come around.

All in all, they are all my favorites. <3
