About Gus

I. Am. Gus.  I am a cat.  A (Russian) Peterbald to be exact.  But I am not totally bald.  I have some rat like fur on my back, and some really soft velvet on my paws and face. This is a picture of me when I was a small kitten, still together with my mom and my littermates.  Now I live with my “brother”, Oscar.  I am older by a month, so I am sort of still in charge.  But now that we are full grown, he is bigger than I.  I love him.  He keeps me from being lonely, and he keeps me warm.  You will have to check out his tab to learn more about him.  Back to me.  I am technically a cat, but I think I am a person.  I talk a lot.  I don’t think they know what I am saying, but they do “meow” back to me — if that is what you want to call it.  Anyway, I think I am the center of the universe, and you should too.  I will answer to Gus, Gussy, Guspants, Goose, Baby Gus, Boo Boo Goose and various other less, um, dignified names my owner uses for me.  She gives me treats, so I have to indulge her a bit.
