The True Tail of Simba

Meowllow Everyone!

Just thought I would start by telling all of you the story about the little orange man we adopted last year. It was the beginning of September when my roommate Alexis had her friends visit from her hometown in NY. One of her friends ended up bringing a little orange kitten with her :( She found him outside by himself near her home in NY. Immediately, my roommates and I fell in love with him. He was the cutest kitten we had ever seen! Alexis's friend ended up asking if we wanted to keep him because she had a dog and knew they wouldn't get along like they do in the movies :-/ we obviously accepted the offer!

How could anyone resist this adorable little face!

He didn't have a name, so we needed to think of something that would fit his cute little orange face. As a kitten, Simba had some gastrointestinal issues, which caused him to fart.... a lot haha! No, but on a seriously note, it was horrid. Some of my roommates wanted to name him Tutti, but my Allie and I knew that was NOT a manly name for him, especially because he was going to grow up to be a strong lion and Tutti was a wimpy name. One night Allie woke me up in a deep dark sleep, looked at me as she held the orange cat into the air and said, "His name will be Simba." ...It was purrfect.

Little did we know that he was going to live up to his furocious name, Simba


A year later, he has grown into a very handsome young man with beautiful orange fur painted with faint tan-ish/white stripes, white mane under his chin and cute little white paws. I know what you're thinking...that all cats are the same, not this one. He is a unique tabby cat that is the man of a household full of four beautiful females who are in love with him! :)

 What a photogenic cat he is

Come back soon to read some of his wild and adventurous Simba stories!
