Dumpy’s favorite treat is his seafood broth, and it must be served at 7:00am sharp — or else. If we’re still sleeping, he will absolutely knock down the door to make his point. He’s obsessed with springs: chasing them, hiding them, and building secret stashes. His go-to toy is whatever he can steal, especially my hair ties, which vanish daily and reappear under furniture.
Dumpy’s most unique quality is his goofy determination. He has a faint, slightly broken meow and an unshakable belief that everything is meant to be chased, hunted, and proudly presented to us — including butterflies. Though not an outdoor cat, he confidently moseys around the yard like he owns it. And if you shut the door on him? He will retaliate by eating the weatherstripping without hesitation.
Dumpy should be America’s Cat because he represents the very spirit of this country: fearless, a little chaotic, deeply opinionated, and convinced he knows best. He enforces his own schedule, protects his territory, hunts with enthusiasm (even butterflies), and refuses to be ignored or shut out. He’s goofy, hardworking, slightly unhinged, and loyal to his people. Dumpy is freedom, determination, and attitude in cat form — and frankly, he’s already running the place.
