Kali's Page!
Name: Kali (pronounced: "KAH-lee")
When Scot got Kali she was already named. We're not sure how it came
to be spelled the way it is. I like to say it's because she's really
"Kali-Mau, Destroyer of Carpets," since she has a penchant for vomiting.
(In reference to the Hindu goddess, Kali-Ma the Destroyer.)
Background: Adopted June 1997
Kali's history before Scot adopted her is pretty much a mystery. He
heard a story that Kali was bought at a pet store by a guy for
his girlfriend, but she couldn't keep a cat. I think it's more
likely that Kali was a street cat like Phoebe, since the Highland
neighborhood in Shreveport is known for lots of semi-feral cats.
We've always assumed that Kali is roughly Phoebe's age.
Personality: Love-slut
Kali loves everyone. She loves Scot best, but she'll moon over anyone
that she meets. Everyone loves Kali, even people to claim to hate
cats. If she weren't so lovable, we might not be able to overlook
the fact
that
she
likes
to vomit
and her
potty-training
was shoddy at best. She invariably stands in the litter box with
her
butt
over
the
side when she goes potty. As for vomiting, it's usually not hairballs.
According to our vet, "Some cats just like to vomit." Joy. Along with being
a Love-Slut, her other job is being a PurrMonster. She has the
loudest purr motor I've ever heard in a
cat. I guess that she's just full of love. Kali enjoys sticking her head through aluminum mini-blinds,
playing with jingle balls and sleeping in drawers. She used to enjoy
sitting
on top of the goldfish tank until the lid broke and she fell into the
aqaurium a couple of times. When we had an iguana, she used to enjoy
sitting on the his
hot-rock. Although, I'm not sure what Max the Iguana thought about
that.
