Mike was purchased in the summer of 1987. I wanted to add a freind for Kitty Kohl. I went to a cat show and fell in love with the persian kitten's. I purchased Mikey shortly after attending the show. Mikey was a very smart cat! He loved to play with Nerf foam bullets. We would throw them and he would block them in mid air and bring them back to us. Over and over, he would practice his "Field Blocking" technic. Mike was sort of a touch me not, and didn't really like to be held. He liked to be near you on his own terms. He had the dog's fooled, they thought he was vicious and they left him alone. He lived a long and very loved life. He went to the bridge in October of 2001. We miss your smooshy little face Mike.
