Encore: Sterling [redux]

Denise: A little update on Sterling, my classic silver tabby boy I finally found on Craigslist a month ago. He's getting along with everyone. He loves Karma the Flemish Giant rabbit (17 lbs). Karma tolerated the cats when he was a baby only and until now he'd chase them out of his cage. Karma loves Sterling and I think Sterling likes him because there's no wrestling match like play with the other cats always turns into. Sterling's so much smaller than everyone else, even small BG who took longest to warm up to him, that I think he likes Karma's gentle giantness.. I take that 'everyone' back. Gypsy has decided she doesn't like anyone anymore except me.

Sterling is very loving. I've got tiny scratches and tiny puncture marks all over my legs from wearing shorts because he can't jump all the way from the floor to my lap yet and doesn't always have something lower to make it two jumps. He's learned his name faster than any other animal I've had. He's also the yawningest cat I've ever had.
