Our Cat Cappy: Purrfect Together
Before our beloved cat came into our home, it was my
teenage son who chose him over a cacophony of cats at the pet adoption center. He named this gentle tuxedo cat “Capulet”
because he’d just acted in a youth production of “Romeo and Juliet,” playing
Juliet’s tyrannical father. But the only
tyrannical thing about our sweet-natured Cappy was the hold he soon had on our
hearts.
It’s tough being a teenager. Because my son didn’t
grow up with siblings, he faced a learning curve adapting to a willful fellow
creature, as cats will be cats. Cappy was going through his own issues,
suddenly facing a strange new world without his previous owner. But soon their
relationship flourished.
They say that 80 percent of cat parents believe they can interpret their kitty’s meows. When our very vocal Cappy calls out, my son knows exactly what he wants. Each time that happens, I am reminded that he chose the perfect cat for our family.
