I know you're
thinking,“What is a dog doing in a
newsletter about cats?”
Well, first off, I am not a dog. I am a
cat. A quite remarkable cat I might add.
So how did I get my name? Well my owner was six years old and
had asked Santa for a puppy. Imagine his disappointment on
Christmas morning when he opened the box to find me inside. His
mother tried to explain to him that they lived in an apartment
and he couldn’t have a dog. Needless to say this did not put a
smile on Bobby’s face. So his mother, God bless her, told him he
could pretend I was a dog. So I was named Rex because that was
the name Bobby would have named his puppy had Santa actually
given him what he asked for.
