Pet personality / Story of adoption / Why is your pet special?Curious, Brave and Courageous. The most unusual cat we have ever owned. Switch thinks he is a dog (or a human), he is involved in every aspect of our human life, and loves to be up, up, up (i.e. on neighbors roof), hanging out the car window while driving, listening to Elvis CD's, and his cat behavior was so unusual he inspired a comic strip in 2009 called, "Super Switch, The Return of Katnip World." The comic strip which ran in the McCook Daily Gazette Whiskers section was read every week for five years (over 250 stories printed in the paper before Chloe and Sarah put away their pens). Switch passed away four years ago and we will never forget him. He was with us when we made our very first donation in 2009 to the McCook Humane Society ($9.75 from a lemonade stand) and he inspires us to continue volunteering for the shelter today!
