A lot has happened since our last Gremanda Blog post. A lot indeed. Today, I’m going to share just one thing to give you a deeper look into the Gremanda lifestyle. And that one thing is an ocicat.

A what?

You heard me, people. An ocicat, and her name is Khloe. We got her at the end of January, when she was just 3 months old, and she’s been meowing, cuddling, playing, biting and driving us crazy ever since.

When we first brought Khloe home, she hid under the printer for about two hours. Talk about instant bonding. She didn’t eat much in the first few days, but we were counting our lucky stars when we saw that she understood what the litter box (or space ship, as we call it) was for.

Before long, she was spending most of her time attacking her scratching post like she was fighting it to the death, hiding toy mice around the apartment, and learning that her favorite flavor of kitty pate (yes, pate) is the oh so delectable Ocean Fish. Naturally, her breath is super lovely.

Very early on, I knew that Khloe was meant to be mine, because we share lots of similar interests. You may think this seems weird to say about a kitten, but I assure you, we are like two peas in a pod. For starters, she enjoys spending time on my laptop, she likes to eat things she shouldn’t really eat, she’s got a thing for handbags, and she likes to annoy Greg. It’s destiny!

Now Khloe is 5+ lbs and continuing to grow into a strong young cat. She’s very committed to exercise, as she makes evident with her tough workouts learning how to jump higher and higher. She has athletically conquered the couch, the TV stand, the bed, Greg’s desk, and now the kitchen counters. What’s next? My face? Probably.

So now that you’ve heard all about our little beast, please give Khloe Marie Gravel-Verdino a warm Gremanda Blog welcome! Do it, or she’ll barf on your carpet and bite your toes.
