This is Oreo. She is one of our cats. She is very pretty, don't you think?

She is the best hunter of all the cats. Usually, we cheer her hunting skills when she brings up snakes and such, but she caught a hampster last week. Mom and Dad were puzzled by that because hampsters are pets not wild animals found around here. We all felt very sorry for the hampster. Mom and Dad said that it was too injured to survive. I felt kinda mad at her about the hampster when I thought about it being someone's pet.

But I am not mad any more. Tomorrow she is going to the vet to be spayed. Mom says that is because we have just the right number of cats. I hope it doesn't make her unfriendly. I heard my sister say she was worried about that since Oreo is so shy already. That is very different than her brother cats. They are very friendly and run to be petted. Oreo loves to follow you to see what you are doing. She is the most curious kitten, but if you reach down to pet her she will lower her back as if she doesn't quite like the feel of anyone's hand. But I don't care, she will play if you have a toy to dangle for her to catch.
