Cat Picture of the Week: Admiral Hester
Saturday November 8, 2008
The Admiral and I became a unit when she was rescued from a grocery store parking lot ten years ago by a dear friend of mine. She didn’t bond well personally for some reason with my friend although he has five cats. I fell in love with her beauty and personality and he gave her to me when she was five months old.
She is much beloved and knows only love and kindness...nothing else and it shows. She knows eight commands (suggestions, I should say!) She mostly obeys the “suggestions” if it suits her fancy.
This morning she came torpedoing down the hall at full speed from my room, when I stood in the center of the living room and said “Brush?” The last thing to say is she snuggles every night next to my head with her face turned toward mine. We are nose to nose and she sings (purrs) me to sleep. She pats my face and mouth with her front paw with her claws tucked tightly up so she won’t hurt mommy.
My sons love her too and call her The Admiral because of her beautiful waving tail...like a staff.
