Seriously, how lucky is she that she's always ready to go out? Flawless makeup 24/7. And for 10 years old, she still has the energy of a kitten. Seriously, best kitty ever.

Nova

NovaMy cat Nova is the best animal in the entire world! She once saved me from a gang of murderous ninjas! They busted down my door saying I owed them money. 12 black clad men surrounded me in my own living room! When the leader announced "your debt will be paid with your life!" It was at this time Nova burst from the closet engaging in hand to paw combat. The battle raged on 5 minutes until the second in command realized they were actually looking for someone in weyburn. Turn out they were pretty nice guys, they paid for the door and left. Still I would have been in real trouble if it wasn't for the little furball!
