I took this photo of Tizzy about three-and-a-half years ago. Tizzy is a male domestic, tuxedo-style cat. He was 1 to 1 1/2 then.
We rescued him. For about a year, he hung around our neighborhood and we fed him and eventually decided to take him in. We took him to the vet, who estimated Tizzy’s age, so we think he’s about 5 now.
Tizzy is just the best cat. He sticks to my wife like Velcro.
He’s the most unbelievably laid-back cat, and he likes to be combed. He even lets you cut his nails. You can hold him like a baby in your arms. Usually, cats are not like that.
Tizzy was really my first cat. We now have two more cats we got after Tizzy. We also have two dogs, and Tizzy gets along with all the other pets.
