Blue demands company frequently and at all hours of the night, according to his new owner, Marianne Yaunt of Virginia.

Blue seems to have recovered well from his rough past. A good Samaritan found him on the side of the road in southwestern Virginia last summer, teeming with parasites and suffering from severe dental disease and a serious wound over his eye. The cat was brought to Old Dominion Vet Clinic in Troutville, Va., where the staff cared for his injuries and discovered his sweet, gentle nature.
