Q. What does a typical day look like at the shelter?
Once I wake up I get a morning walk at a safe space, which humans call an “easement”. I then eat breakfast out of a KONG-shaped Wobbler, take a nap, have lunch, take a walk, nap, play, eat dinner, and take my last walk before settling in for bedtime.
In case you’re a human reading this and don’t know what a Wobbler is; it is a three-in-one toy that keeps me happy and challenged at meal time or anytime. It can be filled with treats or food for a rewarding and challenging activity. The Wobbler sits upright until pushed with my paw or nose, then wobbles, spins and rolls, dispensing treats through a KONG-shaped hole near the top. I quickly learned that motion causes treats to fall out, but the unpredictable movement keeps the toy challenging, even for seasoned Wobbler users. It is a good toy for playtime, providing mental stimulation, and physical activity.

I am the most happy when I am curled up with Monica watching television.
Q. What kind of forever family can you see yourself with?
I could see myself with a family with no small children. They must have friends who understand my personality; especially ones who don’t frown upon me for licking windows.
Q. Have you ever been at a sleepover with a family that you disliked, and why did you dislike them?
Yes, they had loud and obnoxious kids!
Q. What is your ideal family environment?
I want to be with an affectionate family where I can put my head on their lap and rub their legs as if I am a cat. I want them to understand that I am a two for one deal. I look like a large intimidating dog, but I have the personality and gentleness of a cat.
Q. Who is the person you trust the most at the shelter?
I really trust Atalie because she works with me a lot with helping to relax. She understands me.
Q. If you were the owner of the shelter what would you change?
I would run freely and kick people out who I don’t like. All of the cat rooms would be open for me to play in. I would lick all of the windows and give treats to everyone including the nice humans.

In five years I see myself curled up with my adopter and cat friends. Most importantly, I will continue to stimulate my mind with training tools.
