Nolita la gatita


For all you cat haters out there, get over it. They are not that bad... maybe you just can't deal with an animal being almost as cool and independent as you are. I know dogs are pretty grand too but you don't have to choose one or the other. I have wanted a kitty for some time now and decided to bite the bullet here in Mexico where street dogs and cats are as prevalent as taco stands. I've had her for about 6 weeks now and she has already doubled in size. I named her Nolita after the neighborhood in NYC... I thought of it as a reminder of home with a Spanish twist. Only after the first week of saying NO did I realize that this may not have been the best name choice but I decided to stick with it and she seems to be responding in the right ways most of the time...
Here are some fun Nolita facts
Nicknames: Noli, Little Baby (spoken with a very Southern accent)
Nickname when bad: Nolito
Breed: Siamese & Tabby mix
Cutest habit: Curling up on my chest when I am watching TV
Most annoying habit: Crying for food at 7am on the weekends...
Favorite pastime: Chasing flies, laying in the sun
Favorite human food: Mac & Cheese, cereal
