As pretty much everyone knows we acquired a cat while on a road trip in Idaho last July. On our way home we visited a family in Pocatello, the Otto's. In the back of their house was field, and while we were there one of their daughters, Rachelle, found a kitten out in the field, but couldn't catch it. I, of course can't stay away from cats so I went outside with Rachelle to see if I could help her. The rest is history of course, and we came home with a cat.
Maki's name means "true record" or "tree of truth" or "fire wood", or "black pine", it's also a type of sushi. We just chose it cause we liked it and it fit her. Incidentally she also answers to monkey and minky.
She's got a LOT of personality, mostly she thinks she's a person. She tries to eat with her paws, loves to watch TV, lays on her back most of the time and insists on drinking out of glasses instead of her bowl. She also loves water, and eats everything, including canned spinach. She's pretty affectionate and likes just about everyone. Maki is also very playful which can be a lot of fun. Our favorite game is Red Light Green Light, she never gets tired of it.
All in all we're super happy that we have Maki and we were able to give her a good home.
Mom asked me to send some pictures, so I decided to post some...

What a precious face! We'll have to come over and play Red Light Green Light with our "grandcat".
