Her Prissyness Queen Fluffy Of Coconuts - aka Fluffy
She likes eating solid coconut oil from the back of a spoon.
She is a Maine Coon about 14 years old and diabetic.
I got her when she was about a year old as a rescue.

Does not want me messing with her, nail clipping or just checking her out.

Reminds me of a cartoon where the queen is asking her knight if he is
going to claim more land for the kingdom. No my lady, I have to give the cat a pill.

She is "sleeper" which some are.
But when she is up, and will often hunt me down, to be the center of attention.
At times she is on the bed looking at the pillow and hollering for me that can be heard across the house.

She excels at math because when she wants a nap
she can calculate the exact center of the bed [twin] so I have to work around her.
Which is where she is right now and it is near bedtime.

You won't find a happier cat.
