MaggieMoo
MaggieMoo has been my closet
companion for the last two years! As I sit here and work on my homepage, she is
by my side…
She can be very entertaining
when she is not resting…one never knows where she might be lurking. If I open
up a drawer she will get inside and work her way down to the next drawer. If I
open the clothes dryer she hops inside. If I open a cupboard door she tries to
get inside. If I cannot find her after a short period of time, I have to back
track and look in the places I have just been to see if she is inside…
She runs through the house at
night and expects me to chase her…she likes to play rough until she tires, and
is getting better at letting me hold her on my terms. She is usually waiting
for me at the window when I arrive home, and runs to the rug and rolls over on
her back, expecting immediate attention.
Her favorite junk foods are
Dairy Queen vanilla soft-serve ice-cream, and chicken of all kinds. When the
pupil of her eyes gets big and brown… she is ready to rumble!
She has her nightly ritual of
jumping on my chest, meowing, and then move to my right side and knead my arm
for awhile, until she tires and then curls up next to me, using my arm as her
pillow, and purrs until I fall asleep.

She discovered that she could
climb on top of the cupboards in the new apartment…I could not find her until
she meowed to let me know where she was…what a brat…but she had fun!
And I did not want to take care
of a pet…but she is worth it! If she had not adopted me, she would not have
survived, somebody had already poisoned her father, and eventually her only
sibling disappeared.

Every time I opened a drawer,
she would jump in…unpacking took forever…
