Hi! My name is Ozzie Sweetleaf

I am an American Shorthair from Auburndale, FL

Nicknames: I was originally named Ozriel after the cat on the Smurfs, but when we went to have my fun parts taken away, we found out that I was a he so Linda shortened it. Plus it doesn't hurt that one of our favorite bands is Black Sabbath.

Age: 9 years old

Gender: M

Coat: short haired

Education: I survived. ....that's pretty spectacular to me considering the odds that were against me in the begining. I can also hide in the tiniest places and jump out when you least expect it.

My favorite tricks and treats are: I plays fetch and protect Linda from everyone I don't know. If I don't recognize your knock or smell, I'll growl and hiss. And that's just the warning! I'm Linda's very own personal body guard. and My favorite non-human treats are chicken flavored temptations.

Where I hang out: On top of the a/c unit in the front window where Linda has hung a bird feeder, on top of or beside her computer monitor, or underneath her couch where I can grab at unsuspecting toes.

My favorite grubs: I'm not supposed to have people food, but when I give her THAT look, I love bacon, ritz crackers, doritos, strawberry pop rocks, and the green tops off of strawberries.

My pet peeves: I hate it when Linda kills a moth or bug that I'm trying to go after and definetly hate it when she doesn't allow me to lay on top of her computer monitor with both paws hanging down over the screen. Hey it's comfortable!

What I love about my owners: She let's me have the run of her apartment and let's me sleep on her clean warm laundry when she's switching loads. She even shares almost every meal she eats with me if I beg hard enough. She doesn't get mad when I scratch up the arms of her couch (it is second hand after all), and most of all, whenever I want to be in her lap and scratched and loved on, she obliges without complaint.

My cat hobbies: Besides trying to run out the front door every time someone tries to open it, I love to sleep. LOL.

Pet motto: Cats leave pawprints on your heart. (My Nana found it on a magnet for me and I adore it!)
