I totally forgot to give all of you a little story about my cat Mike.I found Mike on a cold October day in 1992 and he was curled up outside by my
house and ran to me that day while I was raking leaves.I ran inside and asked my parents if we could keep him because it was cold and I didnt want him
freezing outside, I was originally told No by my dad who was a big touch Master Gunnery Sergeant in the Marine Corps because he hated cats but late
that night it was that same tough Marine who went outside and rescued the little homeless black cat and it was my father who named him Mike after one
of his fellow Marines who gave his live on Hill 881 in Vietnam.
Mike is 16 and is pretty much just like a dog, If you call him he will come to you and he likes to follow me around the house. If im watching TV he
likes to hop up and sit next to me and watch and if im downloading music and playing it he seems to enjoy the sound because he likes to sit near the
computer speakers. Its kind of funny but he always seems to know when Im not my usual self and if something is wrong I swear he knows and gives me a
look like"I know buddy, Its ok"..I will truly miss him one day and I dont think I will be able to ever have another pet again..So thanks for letting
me tell you about Mike the Cat
