Happy Birthday to me!

Today is my 10th birthday! Yes, the BIG ONE-OH! I can't believe I've been around that long ... I'm such a mancat to still behave like such a kitten so often! I've come a long way since I was born in that kind no-kill shelter in Moline, Illinois. I was such a tiny kitten with such huge paws -- Mom and Dad just knew I'd grow into a big mancat, and I sure have.

Here I am as a kitten ... This was from my Gotcha Day. You see that phone charger plugged into the wall behind me, yeah, I wasted no time chewing through that on day one. I still like to chew cords to this day.

oops
And here's another Gotcha Day picture. Yes, this is my birthday, but these are the earliest pictures Mom and Dad have of me. As you can see, Maggie's not the only one good at unrolling toilet paper!

Oh! An action shot! I loved that mouse so much ... I know it's still around here somewhere. This was my first mouse I ever had!

You can see the mouse better in this shot. Maybe I'll have to break that out and play with it for old time's sake.

And of course there will be Stinky Goodness cake later tonight. I can't wait!
