Bio: Oni

Oni is affectionately called the "garbage kitty". Jesi and Dan adopted her after a woman abandoned two kittens at a local pet store where Dan's mom was working. Oni came to us around the spring of 2001. She lived first at Dan's mom's house with her kitty friends CiCi and Sassy and her doggy friend Charlie. There were also some fish, bird and hamster friends that lived at the house. Oni had a great time there and played with Charlie all day and night. They were best pals.

After a few months, Oni moved with Jesi and Dan to a new home a few towns away. She loved the new apartment and had lots of fun playing with Jesi and Dan. But soon Oni got lonely because she missed Charlie and all her other animal friends. So she told her people that she needed a new playmate. Then one day Link came home! They were not best of friends at first, but soon became pals. Oni then became the "mama kitty".

Oni is named after the video game charachter of the same name. In Japanese, Oni means Demon. This was fitting when she was younger because she terrorized the other animals. She is definately not a demon and is a very friendly, affectionate and loveable member of the family.

Oni loves ice cream and tuna. Her favorite toy is her mousies. She likes the ones that have a small rope material around them. She says they are easier for her to fling and chase.
She also enjoys lounging on the balcony, sleeping on the couch, and biting Link's neck.

More pictures of her will arrive soon!
