What is America's Favorite Pet?

What's your cat’s favorite toy and/or go-to treat?

Her toy mouse with the brown tail! Stuffing is coming out and she’s got plenty more, but she’s always drawn to that one. She’ll bring it up to us to throw and play fetch, and at night will bring it to bed with us.

What is your favorite thing about your cat?

Her character growth. She was a spicy little street cat with no trust for people and now is the most cuddly. She’s still spicy and very independent but when she wants pets she will get them.

Why should your cat be America’s Favorite?

We meet Calamari at the height of the pandemic and planned to domesticate, spay, and rehome her but she ended up giving birth to 4 great babies. Despite being so young and inexperienced, she raised great kittens who each share their own great stories and who made 4 families a little more whole with their presence. She even had the opportunity to mother once more this summer when she took care of a foster kitten and showed him how to cat. Calamari builds families and I’m grateful to know her.
