Kako is the only lady in the house (there are three other male cats in addition to myself, and I’m not sure the term “lady” really applies in her case).
Because she’s the only female in the house and is the most petite cat here, she has an attitude that you can see before she enters the room.
She will fight me anytime I say “no” to her, and heaven help me if I decide I need to be physical with her (a tap on the nose, a swat on the butt, just pointing at her — it all leads to unpleasant violence!).
She has a white-trash relationship with Grendel (thet’s her man), but, step-sibling incest aside, it’s actually quite cute as she will hunt him down anywhere just to snuggle with him.
Kako is a talker (her lungs must take up most of her body), and I sincerely believe she uses the phone all day when I’m not home.
She has a genetic predisposition towards extremely acute urinary tract infections and has to be monitored constantly for any signs of trouble. In fact, it’s Kako’s UTI problem that is the reason I only feed them a prescription diet.

Did I mention she has an attitude?
She wants some attention, but I was standing too far away for her to jump to my shoulders.
Lying on her back in front of the fireplace.
She’s my little Julie Newmar — very statuesque.
