I am polydactyl (7 toes on my front feet and 5 toes on my back feet). I walk like 'Charlie Chaplin'. My middle name 'Grey' is because I have some of the same behaviors as my people’s previous cat that died 5 months before I arrived.

After Grey died, my people were worried about their cat, Zorka, so they contacted an Animal Communicator who said that Zorka was lonely and missed Grey.

The Animal Communicator told my people that the perfect cat will show up at their doorstep. My people chuckled because they live in a floating home, so the chances of a cat showing up at the door is highly unlikely. I proved them wrong because I showed up within 24 hours. The size of my people's eyes when they saw and held me revealed their surprise!

I had a very scary and difficult 5 weeks of life. I was alone, starving, and sick with worms in my body. I was frightened and stuck in the middle of a busy street with cars buzzing all around me. I didn’t know what to do and then a lady named Nancy saw me hunched down in the middle of the street. She stopped traffic and scooped me up and took me to this wonderful home on the river.

Since I won’t let my people put a leash and harness on me yet, I have the best view of the outside activities and summer adventures. I like watching and chatting with hummingbirds!
