Vaquerro's Details
Type: Cat | Breed: Manx / Spotted Mist | Born: Jun 10, 2008 | Gender: Male
Pet War Standings: 109 wins | 89 losses | rank: 42294
Description: We think Vaquerro is about as handsome as they come. His name means "Cowboy" in spanish. It's perfect because he walks with an obvious swagger (something to do with his hips and being a manx, (no tail). He also has two white "Boots" on his hind legs that add to the cowboy look. The upper part of his back legs, his front legs and the top of his head are striped but his tummy and sides are spotted like a cheetah. To top it all off he has brilliant blue eyes and a pink nose. We LOVE him!

I was volunteering at the Butte Humane Society in June when I fell in love with a cat who was "visiting" the shelter in hopes of finding a new home. Last thing I needed was another cat as I was planning to move accross the country the following month. But the whole family insisted on adopting him so home he came. He embedded himself into our … read more
