Today's Van City Kitty was sent to us by reader Mark Dunkley. Here's what Mark had to say about Kiro:

Breed/Colouring: Soft white furry underbelly with a black mask for edge

Hood: Mount Pleasant

Habits: Kiro likes to cajole you into turning on the tap for him in the bathtub or the bathroom sink.  He enjoys lazing in the sun and watching you eat anything out of a bowl.  He relaxes with some cat nip and spazzes out randomly.  He's up first thing in the morning to make damn sure you feed him his pate.

Hangouts: In the sun, on his IKEA chair (in the sun), under the bed or on his second floor stoop watching the Ontario Street bike traffic ride by.

Other info: Kiro has 60k+ hits on YouTube slapping his owner.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6O-Vny3y74.  Kiro is loud and demanding when his needs are not met but appreciates attention, on his terms.

(And that's why you should never advance on a cat whose ears are back! -Ed.)

Name: Kiro
