      Sweet William

 


   Hi everyone, my name is Sweet William but everyone calls me Willie, (or Wild Willie, or oh Willie! ) I came to live at the garden center in September of 2007. I was living in a cage at the pound and Megan came and took me to my new home.
I was supposed to have a job, like catching mice and bugs, but at first I just wanted to play. I have lots of people here to pet me and carry me around. I really like to greet customers and have them pet me too.
I finally found a mouse to play with and it was a lot of fun. Everyone told me what a good kitty I was and that now I could stay at the store since I was earning my keep. I didn't understand that. Why did I have to do anything but look cute and get petted?

Now that I'm all grown up I like to spend my days outside looking for grasshoppers, snakes, bunnies and other things to take to my people. Snakes will make them scream which is actually kind of fun, so I look for them when ever I can. I caught a baby bird one time but the mom and dad bird chased me all over the parking lot so I don't think I will do that again. I still find mice in the store to catch and show my people, they think that I do a good job and I get extra treats for that.

Below are some pictures of me growing up. Hold your mouse pointer over the picture for the caption or click on the picture to make it larger so you can see me better.
Stop by the store and I might let you pet me if I'm not napping or outside hunting for something to bring to my people.

See you soon

Love Willie
