Introducing...JOJO!

Since they are also an important part of our family, I thought I'd introduce the animals one by one. I'll start with Jojo. Don't know why. He rivals Lucky as the most annoying animal in the house. But, he cracks us up.

JOJO SLEEPING POSITION #1

We got Jojo from our friends, Karin & Sid Sharma. They had taken in a stray cat and as luck would have it, she was pregnant. They were looking for homes for the kittens and we were actually looking for a new cat. I didn't really want a tabby cat, but I decided to do my good deed to society and take one of the kittens. Karin said she was a girl, so we named her Jojo. Well, after about 4 months two little round things dropped and we realized Jojo was really Joe. But we kept his name Jojo anyways.

JOJO SLEEPING POSITION #2

Jojo is big and tough. He's mean to Mina (the other cat), he chases the dogs and they chase him, he hides behind corners and attacks your ankles as you walk by, and he likes to wake us up at 5:30am by running his paws through the window blinds making an aweful racket. We sometimes lock him in the back room at night for a peaceful nights sleep.

But we love him because he's Jojo. He likes to sleep on our bed sometimes, he likes to go out and play in the backyard like a dog and he likes to curl upon our lap and watch some mindless tv. He's got cool stripes down his back and circles on the side. All in all, he's a cool cat.
