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.
