Pet of the Month Archive

March 2025 Pet of the Month

Name: Molly Pitcher Agen

Breed: Dilute Tortishell

Likes: Temptations, Churu, the idea of going outside, birdwatching, flowers, laundry, flushing the toilet (which has led to some uncomfortable conversations/explanations when I’ve been on teams calls upstairs and then Molly just randomly flushes the toilet)

I want to play! No, not with that toy, the other one. Ok, I’m done. Got any treats??

Dislikes: The doorbell, actually going […]

February 2025 Pet of the Month

Name: Billy

Breed: Domestic Shorthair

Likes: Food. Going Outside. Food. Especially eating at the dinner table whenever the humans are around; he likes to jump up on the dining chairs as soon as a human starts cooking. He loves rolling around on the pavement for a “hot stone massage” in the summer. He loves being scratched behind his ears and hanging out by the humans’ feet. […]

January 2025 Pet of the Month

Name: Callie

Breed: Calico

Likes: Eating her food, eating my food, talking, coming to the window after I’ve tapped on it to let her know I’m home, reaching towards me with her outstretched paw to be sure I’m aware of her, watching birdies/squirrels/bunnies, tummy rubs

I’m honored to be pet of the month. Does this recognition come with food?

Dislikes: When I sing (I have a […]

Name: Ayla

Breed: American Shorthair

Likes: Birdwatching, her automatic feeder, alone time with her mom and dad

Hope you take time to paws and relax this holiday season. I know I sure will!

Dislikes: Too much attention from her 18-month-old human sister, when her parents are too busy for lap time

About Ayla: It’s a happy coincidence that Ayla is the December pet of the month because […]

October 2024 Pet of the Month

Name: Mari

Breed: American Shorthair

Likes: Cuddling and talking to my humans, drinking from running tap water, and squeezing into boxes/bags

I purr when I’m happy, and I purr a lot.

Dislikes: Drama, rules, and meds

About Mari: Mari was adopted (with her sister Anya) as a tiny kitten from a foster home and is now a content and chatty senior kitty. She is very shy with […]

I’m the king of this house and I approved this message.

About Scotch: Scotch has a purr button and I kid you not, as soon as we start […]

August 2024 Pet of the Month

Name: Max

Breed: Tabby

Likes: Playing, scratches under his chin, naps with his sister Mo or humans, eating, jumping on counters, trying to sneak into the hidden rooms the humans try to keep him out of, investigating all new grocery bags / boxes that enter the home.

He sings… “I do what I want because I’m a cat, cat, cat”

Dislikes: Being hungry, when the humans […]

July 2024 Pet of the Month

Name: Latte (Her official registered name is Blakewood Lattecat)

Breed: Colorpoint Siamese

Likes: Sleeping under the covers; sitting on Human Mom’s shoulder while she’s on Zoom calls, watching Cat TV, yoga, laundry fresh from the dryer, overly expensive freeze-dried chicken treats, and her little sister Chai

I’d like to thank Sit-A-Pet, my loyal supporters, and particularly the best cat sitter I’ve ever met, Tristine, for […]
