IN HER OWN WORDS

Hi! My official name is “Double Trouble” but everyone calls me “Kitty“.

I lived in the streets until a few months ago. I had the fortune of being at the right place, at the right time. I found someone who wanted to take care of me. I came to this home the day after we met.

The name “Double Trouble” was given to me because that’s all I did: get in trouble. I climbed and climbed, chewed through fabric and electric cables, ran up and down the hallways, climbed up the entertainment center, knocked down picture frames and figurines, ate through plastic bags to get to the bread inside them. Yes, I eat bread … love it!

I feel quite the lucky cat, despite my color!

I’m all black and have hazel eyes. I think I am about 6-8 months old.

In the time that I’ve been here, I went through two cycles during which I could only mew and mew and slide on every surface I found. One day I was taken out of the house to a cool, metallic place and these episodes haven’t recurred at all.

I can say that I have calmed down quite a bit. Now, I sleep a lot. And I behave much better. It was either that or a new home would have been found for me. Guess I better behave, right?

I really like this house and my new found family. There are kids here that play with me and my owners take very good care of me. They feed me … a can of wet food every morning and dry food during the day. There’s plenty of water and I have my own “potty spot”.
