We do not know if he is a purebred or not. The animal shelter found him on the streets and rescued him. When we went to the animal shelter, they have a room where they keep all the cats and kittens.

There the kittens and cats are let out of their cages so that people can interact with them. When we entered the room and sat down on the floor, a small black cat came up to me almost instantly. We bonded quickly.

We ended up adopting the small black cat. His name was Edgar when we got him, and couldn’t come up with anything to name him. So the name just stuck with him.

He didn’t really like the car ride home, so I had to hold him all the way back. He’s a very sweet cat, but can be quite ornery. He enjoys playing with bells, toy mouse , and even chasing the woodland creatures around our house.

Now that he’s been fixed, he’s not as energetic as he once was. He sleeps a lot more during the day, and plays with our other cats during the night. Almost every hour, he will jump on my bed at night and cuddle up with me for some scratching.

He does this from between 11:00 pm to 5:00 am. When I wake up at around 6:00 in the morning for school, he’s somewhere in my room.

Usually he likes to walk between my legs as I’m getting dressed. Our cats are fed three times a day. When I wake up (6:00 am), when I get home from school, (4:00 pm) and after dinner (9:00-9:30 pm).

They aren’t the skinniest cats in the world. But they aren’t the fattest. Edgar is a reasonable size for a housecat. He’s healthy from playing outside and we take him to the vet for check-ups seasonally. We love all our cats, past and present.

I called Marmite his name because when he was about 5 weeks old I was eating Marmite on toast and he tried to steal it and I sat there feeding him the rest of my piece of toast. He is 6 months old now and a real mummy’s boy he loves to be where ever I am even coming in the bathroom with me.

He likes to sit with me while I am using the computer either laying on my arm, which is annoying when I am trying to type or if I keep putting him on the floor he will jump up on my shoulder and go to sleep.

He also loves meeting new people and as soon as someone new come to the house he will either tap them on the back when they sit down or jump on their laps. He also like to help my children with their homework ( well at least he thinks he is ) and sulks if they push him away.

He has also just taught the younger kittens in the house to use a litter box by using it himself and calling to them he also washes the younger kittens. Marmite also has a habit of acting like a dog when I return home from going out by jumping up at me and licking me, he has turned into a very special cat.

My husband had said I was not keeping any more cats because we have 6 already but I got my own way and I am so glad I did. I hope he will be with us for many years to come and I am really sure that he will develop many more funny ways and habits as I am really not sure whether he thinks he is a cat a dog or a human just maybe he thinks he is all 3 but one thing is for sure he definitely keeps us amused.
