Putarou was born in Tokyo
Japan. One day we were walking in Saigoyama Park and this little tiny kitten
found us. "Meow" he said "Take me home with you, it's going to rain soon." And
so we did. He grew up to become a very very big cat. About seven years ago he
came to San Francisco with his sisters Paco & Pico, and Andrew & Keiko. Now he
lives with Andrew, Paco, Pico, and Peh-pah - his fat younger brother. He still
remembers Japan and is fond of foul-tasting Japanese treats such as "Niboshi"
(dried anchovies) or "Saki-Ika" (squid jerky) His full name is "Putarou,
Saigoyama-no-Kami-Puchi-no-Suke" It is a Samurai name, and he's a dangerous,
sly cat - especially when hungry. This cat thinks he's my son!!!
