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

Chico’s favorite toy is a brand new mouse filled with cat nip. You’ll never have a dull moment if you throw him one of those! When it comes to treats, Chico will never turn down a chicken-flavored cat treat or a few bites of ham that you’re having for dinner đŸ˜†

What is your cat's most unique quality?

Chico’s most unique quality is the dramatic, no-warning way he decides it’s time to lie down. He doesn’t gently settle onto the floor like a normal cat, he just falls over, as if gravity suddenly won an argument. One second he’s standing, and the next he is a fluff-ball on the ground. It’s impossible not to laugh when he does it, especially because Chico seems so proud of his signature move, as if collapsing dramatically is both an art form and a personal talent.

Why should your cat be America’s Favorite?

Chico should be America’s favorite cat because simply looking at him is enough to make your day brighter. When it’s time to curl up on the couch with a cozy blanket, he’s the perfect fluffy addition—warm, soft, and irresistibly cute. Of course, affection must be given strictly on his terms (too much attention is a bold move), but that just adds to his charm lol. With his bright eyes, and endlessly fluffy fur, Chico’s cuteness is irresistible!
