When you said 11 cats the firs thing I did was check where you lived just to see if you weren't comedian Paula Poundstone (she lives in Santa Monica CA).

Anyway, technically they are my sister's cats. This is the second cat she had that wants to be watched while it eats.

The boy cat was a rescue. One of our cousins who lives in Roseville, CA (near Sacramento), had a realtor friend who showed a house and found a cat abandoned inside.. She took it to my cousin who is a cat person. So my cousin's husband said she had enough cats, so she put a photo up on Facebook hoping to find a home for him. My sister saw it, and one of her cats had just died. She said if it wasn't so far away she'd take him (we live in Gattle Ground WA, which is just North of Vancouver). As jt happened my cousin's daughter was flying into Seatac (the Seattle/Tacoma area Airport), and so my sister drove up to pick him up there.

When he first arrived we thought he must have been abused because he'd duck away if you reached otu to him too quickly. He hs gotten over that though.

LOL... I don't htink he'd be getting me out o fbed to lead me to the frisky dish to ask permission to eat.

It is more likley he tries to share the friskies in the hope that I will share with him when I eat....

Jango is the secodn cat who does this. It isn't a unique behavior.

He is the whiter one.

Hy doesn't like his picture taken as much s the girl cat does.
