This is Blade of The Zoo as a kitten. He is the one standing up. The other two kitties are Shawn and Rocky. He looks just the same now, but bigger. Blade, named after the Wesley Snipes character in the movie of the same name, got his name because he scratched up the Mom pretty good when she tried to catch him the first time. It took several months to catch him. He was orphaned near the Dad's office when his mother was hit by a car. The people from the office fed him, but he wouldn't let anyone get near him for quite some time. The Mom finally caught him and took him to his forever home. He is still quite a fighter. He knows perfectly well that Snowy is the Alpha Cat, but Blade wants to be the Alpha. He is always starting rumbles in the hall and annoying the other cats. Every once in a while, Snowy smacks him down, just to show him who is really the boss. Blade likes his cat food just fine, but he really loves chicken. He has been known to steal whole pieces of chicken if they are left unattended for even a very short time. The Mom usually gives him a bite of chicken when she is cooking, but one time the chicken was still very hot from being cooked. She warned him, but Blade wouldn't listen.
Blade got some chicken that was too hot.
It burned his mouth, so he spit it out.
He whapped it around
Until it cooled down,
Then he ate the chicken, 'cause he likes it a lot.
