Sylvester & Midnight

I wish I had some mice to play with!

About Me

"Midnight"

Midnight came from the same place I did in March 1998. My human mom adopted her because she said Midnight remindeded her of me. Midnight is very friendly. She will come right up to strangers (usually women) and meows at them until they pet her. She loves to watch television. She especially likes shows with birds, but she'll watch anything-soaps, news, etc.,

"I'm going to get that crow!"

Hey! Will someone please change the channel?"

She is a good cat. One evening mom heard a bunch of thumping in the bedroom. A bat had come out of the attic when mom had the door open and Midnight had it pinned to the floor. Mom calls us her "little exterminators."

"That stuff they say about Pit Bulls just isn't true!"

"George is just a big cat!"

My Interests

"Sylvester"

I am a tuxedo cat. My human found me on "death row" on a Sunday evening before Christmas in 1994. She had planned to name me Sylvester. When she went up to the counter to tell the lady she wanted to adopt me, the lady told her I was already named Sylvester!I live with a pit bull, George, and another tuxedo cat Midnight.

When I was younger my human used empty the money from her pockets on the kitchen table. Late at night when she was asleep, I would pick the dollar bills up off of the table and throw them all over the floor "meowing as I did it." Now I have arthritis in my knees and can't climb up on the table, but I bring those pom-pom balls to my human while "meowing".( She seems to like that.)

Back in 1997 we moved into this big house that mom rehabbed. (mom traded our little house fot it.) There were rats.(BIG rats!!!)I killed a big rat right near the bed while my human was sleeping. (It was almost as big as I was!) Mom was horrified.

People think I want to be a dog....

One of my other talents is chewing through cords. Mom doesn't like that very much. I chew up venetian blind cords, and shoelaces. (But, Hey, we all have our vices.)
In April 2003, I became very sick. My human mother rushed me to the vet. I had a UTI. It was also found that I had diabetes. I am on Glipizide which I have to take twice a day. I am very good about taking my medicine.

This is Spot. She died of renal failure at approximently 19 years old. She lived with mom for 18 of those years. We'll see her again one day at the Rainbow Bridge.

I'd like to meet:


All sorts of kitties, and humans who like kitties. We also like mice.

Now we know why the Taco Bell Dog Left:

The poor guy was outnumbered!
