I found our Balinese mix in my orchids tonight and managed to snap this pic of him. He came to us with the name Mr. Jingles, but he was renamed Sasquatch for his furriness and 6-toed paws. We still call him by his original name when he is acting silly.
He is about 7 years old, very vocal and loves to be petted and snuggled, although occasionally he will snag you with a claw or tooth when he's feeling a bit rambunctious.
Very fuzzy and cuddly and always has a rather alarmed look on his face. He's a bit cross-eyed, although his eyes are a pretty blue color. Loves to be brushed and pampered, and always seeks out human companionship. Not usually afraid of strangers. He likes to sit in laps or right next to someone, or at arm's length at the farthest.
He's a drooler, too. Before him I never knew cats could be like this, but something about being petted triggers something in his brain. As soon as you start to rub on him, his mouth starts dripping. It can be a bit much when he drools on your hands or in your lap.
He's also an accomplished hunter and has done in a fair number of small rodents, both inside and out, often with grisly leftovers put out on prominent display.
He's a sweet kitty when he wants to be but he has his strong-willed moments, for sure. I still find him hard to read, even after having him for years.
