Toby

Remember when I mentioned a while back that Mom was planning on adopting another cat from her local ARF? It happened. Toby became a member of the Capello family yesterday. After Mom brought him home, she and Dad lay on the carpet and Toby walked right up between them and lay down, purring. He even rolled over to give them his belly to pet. He is a very passive cat -- essentially a teddy bear. A "sweet potato" as Mom says. And that's exactly what she wanted. A gentle, quiet lap cat who will let her cuddle him, who will come when he's called, who is sweet by pure nature. I'll be able to find out just how sweet he is when Adam and I make our annual trip up there for Thanksgiving.
My parents have always owned cats, since they've been together (over thirty years). It's hard for them to imagine life without a furry buddy. I'm thrilled that the cat they adopted is exactly what they need.
