The introduction to our book(let) went something like this:
"Jimini is a young docile black male with a white chest, white front paws, and white back legs that make him look like he's wearing high top tennis shoes.
His front paws are declawed since birth, and he is neutered. His favorite pasttime is playing with everyone and anyone who shows him the least bit of attention. He is owned by JJ who loves him dearly and has spoiled him in the short time he has been with her.
Charmin is an old, chubby, totally white female cat who is gruff and has no sense of humor whatever. She would bite the hand that reached out to pet her as quick as a wink. On occasion, she will play, but she prefers basking lazily on a warm bed in sunlight to making friends. She is owned by Amanda Blair who has spoiled her rotten in the last few years.
When JJ brings Jimini to visit, there is always a confrontation between the two cats. At first Charmin hissed and tried to scratch Jimini, but he thought she was playing and tried to imitate her.
He still tries to play with her, but she is reluctant to give the time of day at this point, and tries to walk away.. Jimini creeps up behind her and gives her a good swat with his declawed paw on her chubby behind, which infuriates her. But rather than be admonished by anyone who might see her attacking him directly, she runs frantically up the stairs and sulks on Amanda's bed.
When Jimini goes home, she shows her lonely side..... she wanders all over the house for hours searching for him. Perhaps she thinks she can just creep up behind him for a good swat, or maybe she is just protective.. if she could only speak...."
