Ninja kitten - Cat Photo Contest Feb 2013

(Atlanta, GA, USA)

Tallulah and I found each other in a rather unusual place - the dog kennel at an animal shelter. After looking at the kittens and not feeling any special connection, my boyfriend and I went to see the dogs at the humane society where we live. As we neared the back of the kennel, a woman was bringing in three kittens that her son found in a dumpster on Halloween. I asked her which was the sweetest and she said the black one, that they had named "Timmy" (even though she is a girl) because she is timid. The funny thing is, since coming home, "Timmy" (now "Tallulah") is anything but timid!

Tallulah is not your average kitten, she is a rare breed of kitten ninja. Her ninja skills include (but are not limited to): having the ability to sneak around a room unheard and then pounce on pretty much anything, moving or not; get from one side of the house to another in the blink of an eye; fighting crime that comes in the form of my roommates chihuahua; blending into the darkness of night; using superior balance to walk across the skinniest surface; and as you can see in the picture demonstrated, climb literally any surface, including her owner, Megan.

Lucky Ninja kitten

This is one lucky cat owner and one lucky kitten. So happy they found each other! Love the picture!

Comment from Kate
Great picture. Always love a cat hat don't you? My cat used to wear our large maine coon cat as a scarf all the time. We used to smile all the time about it, but secretly I was jealous.

A ninja cat eh, umm I bet my two could give him a run for his money at sneaking around.

Good luck in the competition.
