My name is Giuseppe and I am a handsome gray tabby boy.  I was born outside with my sisters Chatty Cathy (CC) and Michelle.  We all showed up in October, 2008.  Our Momma cat would come and go and she was the same Momma Cat to Weegee and Antonia.  We were trapped in January 13 because it was getting very cold outside.

My name originally was Buddy because when Momma called the county animal control to set up spay and neuter appointments for us, she had to come up with three names very quickly for the lady at the county.  In the meantime, the very nice people at Care feline rescue called and arranged to have us come in for our surgeries.  I also have an ear nick.

Momma and Daddy decided they needed a boy to stay in the house so I was allowed to stay.  My name was changed to Giuseppe because it is one of the names of O’Malley the Alley cat from the Aristocats movie and Daddy’s nickname is O’Malley.

Eventually, Momma and Daddy trapped our Momma cat and she was pregnant and she was spayed.  She stayed with us for about a week in a cage and Momma and Daddy let her go on a Saturday.  She kind of hung around crying for us but when Miss Lois came out that night to feed her, she left and lives at Miss Lois’ house now.

I love it here and I really love my big brother KJ.  Some day I hope to be as big as he is.
