My One and Only Mittens

During my second R & R I met the most sweetest cat one can ever come in contact with: Mittens.  He was so sweet, he loved being held and being around people, he is the most "gentle non-giant."
I hope his personality never changes.  He's also made a little girl happy and a grown man, comforted at night.  I always thought his purpose was a noble one -  born to be a companion.  He also hates being alone.  I recorded him meowing when Jason and I kept him in a room while we were working on home renovations (doors open, SAW buzzing away).  The worst thing that can happen to him is be away from humans and all the action.  This is not your average cat!!

I bought him toys and he plays with EACH and everyone of them.  This is not only a comforting cat, he's an appreciative one as well.  From the cat dancer, to the catnip circle and the little springy mice, he played with each toy. 

They say second kids are much easier to take care of -- This is so true for Mittens.  After the second week, he's learned to sleep on his own in the living room.  He wakes up on the clock at 6:30 AM.  He's very well trained.  Dad plans to train him to use the human toilet.  We'll see if he is successful.  He's a social cat and as my mother-in-law says, "he's found the perfect home."
