I am basicly a street cat in my native land. Survival of the fittest has endowed me with the best qualities of my breed.

I first arrived in the United States in June 1990.

I am a mellow fellow, good with children and other animals, quiet and smart. I am not the least bit shy, often greeting guests without fear.

My downy undercoat and long outer coat plus a thick layer of guard hairs makes me virtually water-proof. For a long haired cat, I need less grooming than most. I shed heavily spring and fall, but not much in between.

When you look at me you think , circles. My build, if I were human, would be that of a football player.

Lots of people think of me like potatoe chips, one is not enough, and I come in a large variety of colors...

Who am I?

I am thinking either a siberian or norwegian forest cat because in my mind that is when I started seeing them both around. I will go for siberian if I had to name one but I am not sure.

I do terrible in trivia chats Jaime, because I can't type fast enough. When I got Gonzo 4 years ago I was looking at Forest cats and Siberians too. Otherwise I really don't know much about breeds. The ragdoll question was a fluke because of WoooLee being one. Don't worry Jaime, I really suck at trivia and you will beat me out soon.

Jaime I sleep 9-10 hours a night as well, but I live on the west coast so that makes the difference. My 9:00 is probably your midnight.

I think that you are a Siberian. From your description, you sound like the ideal cat.

Julie, what breed is your cat, Woolee? He's a gorgeous one too, maybe even prettier than Gonzo.

WoooLee and Squashy are ragdoll mixes. He is much cuter than Gonzo, but don't tell Gonzo I said that.
