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

Nicholi loves the toy on the end of a string and stick when somebody plays with him and on his own he loves playing with hair ties used for pony tails. His go to treat is Churo lickable tubes of soft cat food.

What is your cat's most unique quality?

My grandaughter , Riley ,is 2 years 8 month old and ever since she was an infant Nicholi has watched out for her. He naps with her even when she was in a crib and checks on her when she is sleeping and when she is awake he is always in the room that she is in watching her closely. As she has gotten older they are basically inseparable. Nick is not a cat that likes to be picked up and cuddled so simple boops on the nose is sufficient for them to start their day together!!

Why should your cat be America’s Favorite?

He is the whole package.Handsome with his green eyes and double grey coat.Loyal to his family. Smart.... will sit and give paw on command for treats. Feels he is responsible for Riley safety when she is visiting. Once she had woken up and was crying and we did not hear her. We were in our kitchen laughing about something and Nicholi (Nick or Nikki for short) came out and sat beside us on the floor and kept looking up at us. Once we realized this we realized the baby had woken and was crying
