I adopted my cat Skitter from my veterinarian. He had been at the clinic for several months and they needed to find a home for him. He was 18 months old when I got him.

He is black and white domestic shorthair and weighs approximately 14 pounds. When I first brought him home he was a little skittish so we named him Skitter.

Another good name for him would be Slinky. When he is frightened he slinks along the floor/ground and if he gets really scared he runs straight for his food dish! When he’s not being afraid he is limp as a dish rag. more…
