About Me

Active within 917 Days

Hi! My name is Zorro

I am Domestic Shorthair from Boulder, CO

Nicknames: Zee, or The Z-Man

Age: 7 years old

Gender: M

Coat: short haired

Education: When I play with my mom, I can jump as high as her shoulders!

My favorite tricks and treats are: I can turn on the faucet at the bathroom sink. My mom doesn't like when I do that trick, though, because her water bill goes up. and I love to chew up my parents' important bills and magazines. Paper is the tastiest treat ever!

Where I hang out: On the back of the couch during the day and evening. But when my mom goes to bed for the night, I curl up and sleep with her. When I was a kitten, I used to sleep on her head or drape myself across her neck, but I grew too big to fit up there anymore! Now I love curling up in the backs of my mom's knees.

My favorite grubs: My mom gives us Science Diet. But I'll eat anything; I'm just happy to have a home and not have to forage or hunt for my own food!

My pet peeves: I wish my sister Cita would play with me. But she's a very old cat and doesn't feel like jumping around. I chase her and jump on her a little to get her in the spirit of the thing, but she just howls and spits at me. Also, my mom likes to make rasperries on my belly and kiss it. That's too embarrassing for a big, macho guy like me!

What I love about my owners: She saved my life and nursed me back to health--what could be better than that? She gave me a safe, comfy home where I get love and kisses and back scratches day and night. I'm so glad I found her!

My cat hobbies: I love to jump and run, but I also love to curl up and sleep. I'm not sure which one I like better! I also have a new little brother, and I'm having a great time with him. My sister is elderly, so she never wants to play, but my new little brother is always up for some wrestling and chasing!

Pet motto: Always be an indoor kitty!

How We Met

I was abandoned at a mountian park when I was only 8 weeks old. It was a scary place; there were bears and mountain lions up there who liked to eat little kittens. But there were a lot of people up there too, and one day I saw this nice lady who worked there come walking by my hiding place. I knew she was the one I wanted to be my mommy! There was someone else with her, but I didn't want that other person. I went right up to the lady I wanted and asked her to take me home. I was in pretty bad shape: sick, skinny, filthy, and all scraped up. One of my legs didn't work, and I had to limp around on the other three. She took me to the doctor and then brought me to her house, where she held me on her lap every day and gave me medicine out of an eye dropper. My mom was married and they already had a cat. My dad and my sister, Cita, didn't want me to stay, but Mommy fought hard to keep me. She knew, just like I did, that she and I were meant to be together. In the end I got to stay with my new family, and now I'm a big, strapping 15-pound guy with the shiniest coat you could ever imagine. I still have my wild streak from when I was a stray, but I just love being a fat, pampered housecat!

yes thank you a lot for visiting me. sorry it took me so long to get back to you. i have been busy playing and getting used to my new home. When i first got here momma says i was so dirty and full of fleas. Momma didnt let me roam the house cause she didnt want me to spread the fleas. she gave me 2 baths all in one very tramatic day. so now i am all clean and i can play with every one else. they are lots of fun. momma says im definitaly the more hyper one. i am just full of neverending energy. and tinkerbell is still very playful but only when she wants to be but with me all anyone has to do is nudge me and i will jump all over them. my new family is lots of fun. meow at you later. hugs and a vote from me MAX ps. i would love to be your friend!!!!!!!!!!!! thanx 4 all the sweet comments.i will vote for you and your sister.
