Momo was probably born to his mama
in someone's house in a cardboard box
We had always decided to stop at two,
but wells,
we ended up having a third (and last) one!
The finale of 2011:
20 Reasons Why We Love Momo!
1. He lets visitors know that we DO have cats in the house. The other two hide up in some dark corner whenever visitors come over, it's hard to convince people that there are cats in the house.
2. He always accompanies whoever is using a laptop. Though I think that's because he loves the heat coming from the side of the laptop.
3. He always cracks us up.
4. He takes his job as the alarm clock personnel very seriously. He ahhs and ahhhhs and ahhhhhhhs til at least two of us are up. On weekends.
5. He is very huggable! Though he feels that hugging is too girly for him and struggles to get away after 10 seconds.
6. He has a mole near his nose that we can press to keep him quiet. We wish.
7. He is the least fussy about food! He eats anything from corn to chili prawn to fried fish to baby tomatoes. Sometimes without permission...
8. He is the only one who doesn't play hard to get and comes whenever we call him.
9. We can play catching with him! He likes us to chase him for some psychotic reason.
10. Whenever we call him "Mo-chan", he replies with a "Ahhhh!!".
11. He is the only one of the three we saw when his eyes weren't even open yet.
13. We love his loud loud LOUD purring. So soothing :)
14. He always looks forward to cuddling and massaging from us.
15. He is a brave little cat. For one thing he isn't scared of the vacuum cleaner monster. Though I realise he likes to whack the vaccum cleaner when we are not looking.
16. His trademark lie-in-the-middle-of-nowhere syndrome. Then he starts playing "Beware the Foot Trap" game with us.
17. He treats the two guinea pigs like his friends. How many cats do that? (Miaomiao always looks at them like they are inferior creatures)
18. He is in a sense smarter because when he steals food, he doesn't take it to eat where everyone is. Unlike Pepper.
(The little boy who took his satay stash to eat in the living room. While the whole family was watching television there)
19. He seems to understand instructions (in Chinese). Once Emily told him to wake her up the following morning. He did. Another time she was just back from a trip and told him not to wake her up. The next morning he just lay quietly next to her on her bed.
20. He is a potential candidate to be a police sniffer cat. He seems to be more sensitive to smells (especially food), His nose takes him to where the food is.
Funny now that all of them has grown up,
and Momo is larger than Pepper who is larger than Miaomiao (the oldest cat)
