Spaz, the King of the Couch

This is my cat Spaz, as he is usually, hogging the couch ( or chair). He isn't always a crazed cat fighting over his blanket (see another photo posted). He is now 14 years old, and a stray kitten we found while living in Hawaii. He now is a resident of Arizona, wherehe's happy as long as he has a place to snuggle up to sleep, food to eat, and gets petted when he demands it, which is often. He's quick to steal your seat if you get up for a moment, and bite you while trying to take it back. He weighs a ton, more muscle than fat, so puts up a good battle. Also known for sitting on my keyboard and blocing my monitor if I ignore him too much. Terrorizes the puppys we have, and has cornered them before and made them wait until he was made to let them out. (Shouldn't have let him see Garfield cartoons.)

I love this kitty photo--the way he's sprawled out, slumbering--so cute & cuddly!

Artist Reply: LOL! I will try to send it out tomorrow. He thinks the couch, my chair, and my computer area is all his domain. He is doing well, and being spoiled.

Artist Reply: LOL! Yes they are! This one is a sweetheart at times, crabby and demanding, and enchanting me for 14 years now.

Artist Reply: Thanks Christina! He's such a odd cat at times! He can barely squeak out a meow, sounds like a squeaky toy.If he put his gut into it, he'd roar like a lion. He is so fat and old, he forgets he can't jump up over an armchair like he used to. I have to lift him up sometimes. He's on a diet for now. Seems he was sneaking into the kitchen and chowing down dog food, the sneak. He waited until the dogs were outside and us asleep. He's been busted. I will stop his midnight kitchen dog food raids. I will be doing some more cat portraits soon. Spaz will be in a few.
