Here is my favorite lil guy Toby & my only child! We live in Dallas Texas & my family owns a lil contract post office which I take him to everyday to lounge & guard the place ;) ,but mostly for him to get the people attention he craves!! He likes to hang out on the counter & greet people coming in the door. He also sometimes serves as a paper shedder if someone needs a document obliterated! He walks himself to my car in the moving ..not without some encouraging words ;) and walks himself into the mail center with ease. He seems to know what I am saying to him most of the time & minds me for the most part... after all he is a cat :). He loves to ride on the center console of my Subaru & leans with the turns. I have even gone as far as taking him on road trips with me and does quite. Litter box in the back of my SUV & food & hes a happy passenger! Anywho I just thought I'd say hi and introduce myself! <3 Cats!

                                              Make it a great day!!! 
                                                -Travis Henry 

 P.S. He showed up on my door step in April of 2008 on my door step as the cutest kitten I've ever seen & its was for sure love at first sight!!

Hey there, Travis and son!  He sure is a cutie and I can see why you feel like you do about him.  Quite a well-mannered little man, too, from what you say.  Reminds me of my eldest, our "cowboy cat", Samuda, who rode home from the streets where we rescued him, cool as a cucumber, enjoying the ride and watching the world go by.  My dad's people were/are from Dallas and environs, btw.  Welcome to TCS!  Hope you'll like it here and share a lot of pix and stories about your little guy.

Welcome to TCS!

Your boy is gorgeous, and he sounds like a good helper, at least for paper shredding, hehe

I look forward to more posts and pictures about him.

Here he is the first night I met him :) Truly was love at first site with this little guy , if his killer looks didn't you his personality would.



      Here is a few pictures from him at work. I walked around the corner & found him laying like this... a customer notified me of his odd position.


 He likes to pose for pictures it seems.


He started sitting in this one box at work a lot so I decided to start making it into a cat recliner with backing and eventually arm rests also ha!


 He also likes to check the incoming mail.





 He got a article in the White Rock Lake Weekly & let the fame get to him a little bit!

OMC (Oh, my cat!)   I'm in LOVE!  
  This guy is irresistible!  Be glad -- be VERY glad -- I'm not in Dallas right now.  I'd be there with my big coat on.  The one with the BIG pockets 
.  

I have a picture someone did of a cat who's marked a lot like Toby but with a little longer fur, lounging just like that.  


Used to go to White Rock Lake with my cousins when I was down there visiting.  

Please keep those pix and videos coming.  


btw, don't know what your preferences are, but I got the cutest red bandana safety collar for my Cowboy Cat at MyThreeCats(dot)com.
