Nippers the Chirpping Chartreux
by Mary Ann
(Urbana, Ohio)
Four years ago my daughter brought home a kitten that was dropped of at a local horse barn.
She was a beautiful blue gray all over. We named her Nippers since she love to play and would often nip your hands if you were not in the mood to appease her.
She mostly talks in chirps and only meows in the morning to announce that she is back in the house and ready to be loved on until she falls a sleep for most of the day.
If she is in the house at night she will turn on my clock radio to wake me up to let her out.
Once when I had the radio turned down low, there was a glass of water on the night stand – she reach her paw into the glass and flicked me with water until I woke up and let her out!
She is very determined to get her nights outside and will climb up on the TV stand and sit in front of the television if you ignore her too long!
She loves to cuddle up beside me and spoon or she will sleep on top of my husbands’ stomach.
She takes turns being my cat and then his cat. It just depends on who has done a favor for her lately.
