About Duchess: Duchess is a tiny force of nature that must be involved in all activities and constantly supervising the “big cat” servants in the house. She rules from a lap-based throne, Amazon boxes, or the cat tree, where she can look down upon servants and her kingdom. Despite his being twice her size and litter mates, she bosses around her brother, Babu, and would have preferred to be an only child. Duchess is a video conference celebrity appearing in international webinars, phone calls, and virtual science and technology symposia. Arguably, the most knowledgeable cat in science and the law. Never shy and always willing to show some skin on important conference calls, her breakout roles include the “Butt, of Course!” series, “A Tail in the Face”, and “Stop Talking I am Napping 1 and 2”. Oddly not very food driven/motivated, but very excited to welcome new subjects into her dominion. Now 13 years old, Duchess and Babu have been with Sit-a-Pet since they were kittens and love big cats (humans).
