Name: Snowflake
Position / Style: Cornercat
Nickname: “El Fluffo”
Claws are: Registered as lethal weapons
Favorite Movie: “Close Encounters of the Furred Kind”
Quote: “Let’s not talk politics. Or ticks.”
Boy, what an interesting quote. So, this means we can’t discuss if Snowflake is a Demo-cat or Rat-publican? You know, everything would be better if we just adopted more cats. Of course, the overpopulation of wild cats is no joke. But that’s neither here nor there. Let’s focus on the cat-tters at hand. (Wow, I’m getting pretty good at this pun thing.) Though, it’s hard to believe that something named Snowflake could also be something registered as any sort of lethal. Must be like an Agent Cobra Bubbles from Lilo and Stitch sort of situation.

Name: Pickle
Position / Style: Wingcat
Nickname: “Dr. Pounce”
Goal: To Sit on the Supreme Cat
Favorite TV Show: “The Drapes of Wrath”
Quote: “A hiss is just a hiss.”
Now, I have this weird feeling that Pickle may be related to Moose, but that’s just a hunch. However, unlike Moose, Pickle appears ready to tackle anyone to the ground. I guess that’s why they call this beautiful kitten “Dr. Pounce”. There’s something in the eyes. Them’s are mice-killin’ eyes. And based on the rest of the descriptions, Pickle may not be the friendliest of kittens. Or rather, maybe this kitten just really needs a loving home.
