SMITHERS
a Cat and his story

I came to my parents one cold night in April 1996 in Peoria, ILL.  My dad was working security in the dorms at Bradley University.  He heard some meowing down one of the main floors and found ME!  I had wondered in from the cold.  Well, dad scooped me up and dropped me back outside.  I stayed around another 3 HOURS waiting for him to get off work and see me still waiting at the foot of the door for him.  He STILL ignored me and walked over to my mommy's dorm, by now it was four in the morning and I was getting tired.  I followed him the whole way, talking to him, ya know keeping him company.  Well once mom saw me, she couldn't resist and I found myself new parents.  I first lived in her dorm room (yes it was illegal and she kept me hidden).  I didn't like that AT ALL!  Then, I moved in my dad's fraternity room for one semester.  I REALLY liked that!  People were always coming and going and I had lots of good company.  The guys even named me from a TV show they watched every night- The Simpson's.  I guess because I liked all the guys so much.   Wow, did dad have fun finding a place for a litter box in that tiny room.  Then, my mom got her own place and I moved in there.  It was HUGE and I shared it with my mom and some other female creature called JULIE.  That is until the black one joined us.

Courage
The Triumphant Journey

My mom and dad rescued me from the parking lot of a movie theater in Peoria, IL in July of 1996.  I had been left there tied up in a plastic bag.  Both my mom and dad worked in the movie theater and when another nice couple found me and brought me in the theatre, mom volunteered to take me!!!  Dad was not all so happy, that is until he saw me.  My mom scooped me up and I slept the first night on their heads!  Well, after a nasty visit to someone called a VETERNARAIN, I went to my new home and found a BIG ORANGE cat waiting there for me.  He didn't like me all so much so I spent a lot of time under the bed.  My mom almost gave me away because I had lots of accidents on her bed while she was in class.  But thank goodness she didn't!  The orange cast and me get along great now and I can't sleep unless he is next to me.  I like watching birds and chasing rubber bands.  Things have been great and then one night my parents brought home an ugly thing called a DOG!  I don't like him and I don't think I ever will.
