- Proud pet parent of:
- Anya, Russian Blue, born about Feb 2004. She lives with my daughter, daughter's puppy, and daughter's chinchilla.
- How we met:
- PAWS Atlanta. She was named Katnikov by the staff. Anya was rather aggressive amidst all the barking, but she calmed down with us. Now her natural sweet easygoing personality shines!
- Pet likes:
- Sitting in the window. Chasing lizards who are safe outside! Squeezing herself between me and laptop :) Puts up with me trying to train her to sit, down, come and stay; Anya will sit on command if she knows I have a treat. She's pretty good at 'come'. Working on 'down' and 'stay', as well as 'talk', 'up', 'kiss' [hold still so I can kiss the top of your head], 'paw' [let me hold your paw].
- Pet dislikes:
- Dogs, though learning to like our new puppy. Loud noises. Hyperness in people or other pets. Sudden moves. Absolutely hates claw-clipping time, and she knows my 'paw' command is to get her to let me clip [sigh].
- Pet’s favorite spot:
- My lap, a window, or one of our beds.
- Pet’s favorite toy:
- Lizards outside the window, and they seem to know it :)
- Pet’s silliest habit:
- Sometimes when washing herself, she lets her tongue hang out!
- Pet’s sweetest moments:
- When she washes my hand as I pet her. Snuggles when we're going to sleep, though her favorite spot is on my legs. Squeezing herself into my lap with laptop and puppy, at least until Pup makes a sudden move! She puts her head on my wrist at times, which always makes me go AWWWWW!
- I crack up when my pet:
- Snores! I never had a cat who snores before!!
- My pet is unique because:
- Despite her traumatic background [found as stray by someone visiting from Aiken, SC and taken to PAWS where she stayed 2 months], Anya is my constant companion and a lot of company for me. It took her months to relax enough to purr, but the wait was well worth it. Anya is still scared of everything, but she loves me, and is learning to trust me. This makes her very unique for me, because I never had a pet who depended on me this much. I love my Anya!

Internet Problems
Sorry I haven't replied to folks who left me comments. I've had Internet troubles that aren't getting better, and I've been under the weather for a while. I'll probably be dormant a little longer then get active again when warmer weather comes to stay. Thanks for all comments!
