6. My Puter cat was very special...

A female orange polydactyl tabby. We knew right away she was polydactyl, of course. We didn't grok to the "she" until we caught her coming on to my male cocker spaniel (LOL).

Anyway, she had one other very strange habit, besides laying all over my computer (which earned her the name 'Puter); every day when I'd come home from work, I'd have to stop and bend down every few feet from the front door to my bedroom closet and pick up my dirty underwear. She'd pull them all out of my dirty clothes and deposit them throughout the day until I got home. I'm not sure what the attraction of doing this was, but she never missed a day, and she always took the weekends and holidays off! She was a very strange, very special kitty. We lost her about three years ago. We've had a few more who've found refuge in our home with us (we take in strays and ferals and we love them all), but there will never be another cat like 'Puter, of that I'm absolutely certain!
