She Is Unique...

  Ms. Nycto is the strangest cat that we have ever rescued.  She came to the Bayou a few years back as a "throwaway pet".  (Don't get me started on how I feel about people who dump their pets out like trash...ugh!) She was extremely malnourished, flea infested and matted.   It took a week of coaxing before we could ever gain her trust.  Poor baby.  Now, she has established herself as "Princess of the Bayou" and reigns as supreme only under Ms. Put, the Bayou Queen.  I wouldn't have it any other way.

  Still, she is strange.  I have never known a cat that loves rain, sleeps belly up while in the rain and does not hunt.  She also has an habit of choosing odd snoozing spots.  I never know where I will find her. One of her favorite spots is the porch railing.  This is not too weird except for the fact that she straddles the rail. Her legs dangle on either side of the board with her tail twitching back and forth on either side.  She will sleep for hours like this....rain or shine....day or night.  So far, I have not seen her lose her balance and take a tumble.

  Even with her quirkiness, Ms. Nycto fits in quite well here on the Bayou. With all beings, I have found that eccentricities make each of us unique and that is a good thing.  Ms. Nycto is definitely unique and, yep, I wouldn't have it any other way.
