G.I. Joe

The naming of cats is a difficult matter. It isn't just one of your holiday games. You may think at first I'm mad as a hatter. When I tell you a cat must have three different names...T.S. Eliot This is completely true when we named G.I. Joe we didn't want him to have the typical name and his personality was a spitting image of the action figure. We seemed as if he was always on a reconnaissance mission and was looking for the "enemy" whether it was birds, lizards, rats, mice, etc. He was also the sweetest cat ever we would sleep on my bed with me and had to always be touching me. He couldn't be on the foot of my bed he had to be right up against me. G.I. Joe would also play endlessly with our two dogs, Dusty(65 lbs) and Scout(11 lbs), and would never lose. We couldn't have asked for a better cat. -The Bakker Family
