A Message From Tony - Shelter Mascot

Hi there!  My name is Tony, and I am the Shelter mascot.  I live at the shelter and have my own place in the office.  The nice people here decided to adopt me when the Shelter became full.  I have lots of nice human and animal friends, and my main goal in life is to tease the humans and canines.  I would love for you to come visit me and all of my friends.  I will be happy to greet you and escort you into the building, but please check you're car before you leave....I have a habit of inspecting the interior of vehicles when a window is left open.  The  folks here are the Shelter are nice, but they make fun of me sometimes.  They say I talk too much, am the most ungraceful cat they have ever met, and that I am cross-eyed.   They also say I am a giant (whatever that means!).  I get into lots of trouble....I prefer to call it entertainment.  I love water and will happily dive into the sink or any available puddle.  The people have decided to keep the bathroom door shut now.  They said something about me turning on the faucets when noone is here.  Not fair.....I love that sink!!  It's fun to walk on the computer keyboard and lay on the desk when it is time for paperwork.  I also like to harass the dogs.  I sneak into the kennel every chance I get as well as sit outside the fence when dogs are playing.  Sometimes I even climb the fence so I can sit on the roof and watch the dogs play.  It's fun to get them all worked up when I know they can't get me.  The people here say I am unusually friendly.  I love everyone and everything.  I eagerly help care for motherless kittens, welcome every new cat, and am not afraid of dogs at all (the people say I need to be a little more careful).  Please come and visit my Shelter and make one of my friends your new companion.
Have a nice day!
Tony
