(1,383 posts)Of the entire litter Red has been adopted twice - and returned twice. This earned him the name Boomerang and because he is such aBIG MOUTH it has been shortened to Boomer.
But he is the most social cat weve ever come across.

(12,421 posts)Tommy was an orange tabby, runt of the litter, but he could effortlessly fly from the cat tree to the sofa back some twelve feet away. His flying around the house got him in some tight fixes: one time he managed to get tightly caught in the living-room drapes and I had to cut them to free him rather than take time undoing the knot he somehow fashioned.

(111,245 posts)He was an ornery old bastard of a cat named Pete and the lady next door, his person, warned me he didn't like kids.
Well, I soon figured out he wasn't nuts about being fussed over beyond the odd scratch. The two of us spent a lot of time sitting next to each other on a back step while I read to him and he pretended to both care and understand. He was definitely a companion, not a subordinate, and I remember him fondly. His person was absolutely amazed. I was four and a half at the time.

It's interesting that the vikings are the ones who spread ginger cats so widely. They apparently had quite a thing for them, and there is a direct correlation between gingers and the degree of colonisation by the northmen...
