My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Where to begin with Gulliver...first and foremost, this is a GREAT cat! Gulliver makes you laugh, always has something on his mind that he wants to share with you, and loves to keep you company...and let's not forget, this is one good-looking boy!

There are no words to adequately describe exactly how much Gulliver LOVES wand toys. Oh sure, Gulliver has no problem chasing balls and kicking around toy mice of all shapes and sizes, but introduce a wand toy into the mix and Gulliver morphs from cat to tiger. Gulliver loves sparkle wands; he will chase them all over the place and then carry them off in triumph upon capture. However, this behavior is nothing compared to the great battle he embarked on involving the fabric wand toy...

Gulliver can give anyone a run for their money in a tug-of-war contest involving the fabric wand toy!! Gulliver grips the fabric part of the wand between his teeth, emits a low growl, and arches his back to put all of his weight into pulling the other end from your grasp. So dedicated was Gulliver, he actually fell over onto his hind quarters several times, never losing grip on the fabric mind you, because he was putting so much effort into the contest! As I watched, with my mouth hanging open in disbelief, the fabric went and stayed taut as Gulliver struggled valiantly to win the tug-of-war. I cannot tell you how hard I laughed after the contest was over...and you will too, once you personally have the pleasure of engaging Gulliver in another epic tug-of-war battle!

Gulliver loves to be near his people and receive attention from them. He is more than happy to accept that attention in the form of petting, neck rubs, and brushing! Gulliver will even occasionally occupy your lap in the hopes of getting some affection from you! Gulliver loves to talk to his people and enjoys all sorts of topics ranging from breakfast, to playtime, to lunch, to reminiscing about his last wand toy play session, to dinner, to an engaging session of the best strategic tactics he can use in his next tug-of-war battle! He especially likes it when you make eye contact with him while you're having a discussion as he feels this provides a deeper connection as you converse. Gulliver's funny, he's so talkative that even when he is playing you can sometimes hear him make a little snorting or grunting sound as he's chasing his toys! This silly boy also gets so excited about mealtime he'll sometimes do a funny little dance in anticipation of those first morsels hitting his taste buds!

As laid-back and outgoing as Gulliver is, he will be a great addition to just about any type of home. A home with a family that will love him, play with him, and give him plenty of tasty meals is his #1 priority! This sweet, funny guy will add lots of life and laughter to any family!
