I think cats are so cool. I love hearing Tika's meow..she can be very talkative! Her purring is very soothing too....she is a rather spoiled kitty. She got for Christmas two 'purr pads' to lay on..one's on the end of our couch, the other is on Tika's favorite chair...she also got two cat bowls that are shaped like a cat's head! She is a sweetie, very gentle and loving. She is my comfort sometimes when the world gets to me.
