My name is Midnight, but I am rarely called by my name. My Mom and Daddy have all sorts of other names for me. I think my favorite one is "Lunch", because it is always followed by a treat of Tarter Control nuggets.
I met my Mom and Daddy at the Animal Control Shelter. They came looking for a kitten, and I turned on all my charm. There were several other kittens competing with me , but naturally I was the one chosen. My humans recognize superiority when they see it !

I started training my people immediately. Unfortunately, I quickly learned that my people had already been trained by another cat and they had learned some bad habits. For example, they wouldn't let me into their bedroom to sleep in their bed with them. After a while I decided that I could live with that- when I grew tired of ripping at the door with my claws.

I am a lady kitty. My fur is solid black all over, and my eyes are really green, but they tend to change colors a little. Sometimes they look yellow and sometimes they look green. I'm big for a queen kitty. I weight slightly over 16 pounds, but not an ounce of it is fat. I exercise faithfully twice a day, getting my Mom to play tag with me or to pull a string so I can run after it.

I am also the Queen of Fur and Fang. Don't I look queenly?

Sometimes my Mom doesn't obey my wishes promptly and I have to punish her. I never bite as hard as I can, though. Humans are fragile as well as being a bit stupid and I don't want to damage her. I know that they say one should not bite the hand that feeds one, but that saying doesn't apply to cats. Cats can bite anyone they wish !

Despite her occasional transgressions, my Mom is a good mom - for a human. I love both my people, and I know that they love me. My Mom and I cuddle and purr to each other. My Daddy gives me cheese when he is snacking. I love cheese !

I now share my home with Plato, who used to be the barn cat. I am trying to talk her into moving back to the barn. She isn't listening too well. Rawr!

Here I am in my new cat tree. It is so tall that my Mom has to climb into a chair to reach me. I love it up here (and I keep Plato off!)
