Cat Research

Evil

Well, I no longer have a temporary roommate. CM's momma returned home yesterday so she came and took him back. I had never seen a cat with ears so little like CM's so (with the help of Andrea!), I did some Googling and found out a few things.

CM is most likely a Scottish Fold cat. Interesting facts about Scottish Folds:

• "Folds are also known for sleeping on their backs." (Source)

• "They tend to become very attached to their human caregivers and are by nature quite affectionate. Folds receive high marks for playfulness, affection, and grooming, and are often intelligent, loyal, softspoken, and adaptable to home situations and people." (Source)

• "Scottish Folds are hardy cats, much like their barnyard ancestors. Their disposition matches their sweet expression. They have tiny voices and are not extremely vocal. They adore human companionship and display this in their own quiet way." (Source)

Aren't these awesome qualities? Especially sleeping on in its back. That's a manly cat, right there. Once I'm back in NYC, I'll do some research into actually getting one of these little critters.
