1. I got my first orange cat, Twitch, from a rescue.

He was part of a 30 cat hord. The woman who ran the rescue that got him told me she wanted to keep him but her cats kept picking on him for absolutely no reason. She assured me he would be a great companion for my other cat, CJ, who was grieving the loss of his BFF. Well there’s no other way to say it, Twitch is a jerk. Seriously, he’s Eddie Haskell in a cat suit. It took me awhile to catch him at it but he was terrorizing CJ, chasing him off his favorite spot, guarding food, swiping at him when he walked past. He’d do it when he thought I wasn’t looking. CJ, who is twice his size, finally started fighting back and I couldn’t be happier.

A little one named Simba and 2 giant ones named Gus and Rinky.

They were all nice to the other cats but they were the ones getting into things snd giving encouragement to the others to be bad. Lucky I didn't have all three at the same time and they were consecutive, or they would have been full time work.
