Living With A Schizophrenic.... Or Not


Cute, right? I know. People either loved her unique look or thought she was the weirdest looking thing since Celie from The Color Purple. Neko was her name and she lived with us for about 6 months back in 2009.



She could be the sweetest thing.... affectionate, playful and great company for my big orange tabby, Seymour.


The only problem was.... Neko was a schizophrenic... the paranoid type. She would attack, wedge herself into my kitchen drawers, walk the curtains and claw your eyes out!

Needless to say, Jacob returned home one afternoon and was confronted with a bit of bad news. It seems Neko took a flying leap off the balcony and scampered away before I could get downstairs to reach her.

......ummmm...

Well, that's my story and I'm sticking to it!!!

(To remain in your good graces and in a effort to keep my reserved mansion made of gold in the residential section of Heaven, Neko was returned to the Animal Shelter I adopted her from. I checked on her for a couple of weeks and to my surprise she was adopted by another unsuspecting family!)
