Pet of The Week

By Jerry McLaurin
The name Puff is often
associated with the magic
dragon of Peter, Paul and
Mary fame, but here in Butts
County on the Giles Ferry
Road at the home of Andrews
and Evelyn Cook the name is
more readily associated with
a beautiful green eyed,
golden blonde, mostly Per
sian, 2 V 2 year old cat. Puff
came from across the street
where Andrelyn, the Cook’s
daughter, lives and where
Andrelyn’s cat had a litter of
four. When Evelyn saw the
litter she couldn’t resist in
spite of Andrews’ distaste for
cats.
At mealtime Puff enjoys
anything which is placed
before her. Evelyn doesn’t
have to be picky when
shopping for her; any of the
brands of catfood will do.
And if there are a few
morsels of food left over from
dinner, Puff will see to their
disposal in short order.
Evelyn says that she’ll eat,
“anything from cake to
sausage,” and she has a well

developed taste for milk.
In general she isn’t allowed
into the house except for
short periods of time; even
Andrews has learned to
tolerate her in the house for
short periods.
On one occasion Puff was
inadvertently left in the
house while the Cooks made
a trip to town. Upon
returning Andrews, who is
blessed with a keen sense of
smell, picked up her scent
and set out in search. Puff
was soon found and let out of
the house but what was found
in the bathtub, neatly
concealed beneath a rubber
shower mat was another
matter which had to be
dealt with in an altogether
different manner. Evelyn
says that she has often found
Puff lapping water from the
bathroom sink or if the
situation is desperate e
nough, from the commode.
Puff is definitely a house
cat at heart. When she is put
out of the house after a short
visit, many times she makes
a bee line to Andrelyn’s
house where she inevitably

finds a soft spot to sleep on
with Mike or Andy, Andre
lyn’s sons.
Outside of the house, Puff
enjoys catching mice, rats,
chipmunks and anything else
that is animate and small
enough for her to handle.
After a successful hunt she
brings her catch up close to
the back door of the house
where it might be admired by
passersby and where she
amuses herself playing with
it until lunchtime.
Puff has had one litter of
kittens. To have them she
burrowed her way under the
house to a point beneath the
utility house on the carport.

street, several minutes and a
lot of belly crawling to find

Mike and Andy, Andrelyn’s
kids as well as Tommy and

dogs as well as the kids enjoy
