Hi! My name is Tilly,
short for Attila the Hun. I am an all-black Bombay, which is
actually a cross between a Bermese and a black American Shorthair.
Like most Bombays I love to play, and I chatter a lot with my mistress
and family and at the birds in my yard. I got my name because I like
to run around a lot and attack things. Other names I have are "Spook"
and "Holy Terror". My favorite things to attack are floor rugs, and
of course, my brother Mister Cat. I also love to play feather toy
with my mistress, and really enjoy a good brushing or petting session.
I have a few tricks as well, in that I can open doors and jump up to really
high places. When my mistress is at her computer, I like to nap on
the chair behind her, and usually she sets out my favorite fuzzy blacket
for me to knead. I also like to sit on the deck and snooze.
Mister usually sleeps out there too under the table, while I prefer the
very edge of the deck, and I make my mistress think I am going to fall
off the side sometimes.
My mistress found me
at a camp in North Carolina when I was just 4 months old, where I was starving
and underdeveloped. Some food, a few trips to the vet, and some medicine
put me in good condition though, and my mistress took me home to live in
Atlanta. I live with her when she's not at school, with the person
she calls "Dad", and sometimes with her brother Chris, who she told me
is now far away in Hawaii with the Ma-rines. Her and her brother
like to play fight too.
I have another brother,
well sort-of. He's a dog named Charlie. Mister Cat thinks Charlie
is our real brother, but I know better. Mister Cat has never been
that bright. Charlie worries a lot, and sometimes tries to break
up Mister Cat and I when we are play fighting. Other than that he's
OK. When I want out, and no one is paying attention to me, Charlie
comes over and scratches on the door to get my family's attention.
 
Well, that's all about
me! I'll have more stuff on here later,
so come back soon!
