Lady Isabelle Rosie Cotton

-"My name is Lady Isabelle Rosie Cotton, though my family calls me Izzy most of the time. I was born February 3, 2007 and was adopted very early; April 15, 2007. When I'm getting into mischief I'm called Monkey Butt and IzzaMagoo."

- "I am really, really obsessed with Wendy (and Kristin). I want the cat to play with me sooo badly, but my family keeps telling me that will never happen."

- "While it's true that I only weigh 5 pounds, I do play with the big dogs. Okay… so I play with ONE big dog, which would be Maddie Kate. We play really rough together. When wrestling, I think Maddie sometimes lets me win. She lets me win because I wear her out easily."

- "The picture below was taken the moment I was brought home. As you can tell, I'm very fond of Nanny's flowers."



- "I love to eat cat food." (Maddie taught me that).

- "I love sleeping on pillows." (Maddie taught me that, too).

- "I am fascinated by birds. I watch them flying overhead all the time, and even chase them away from the bird bath and flower bed."

- "When I was a puppy, I enjoyed playing in my water dish, splashing water all over the place. I no longer do that, as I don't think Kristin likes it much since she fusses at Wendy for it all the time."

- "I love to dive my nose into the very bottom of my food dish, only eating the vegetables."

- "I’m famous around here for my toothy grin. It makes my family laugh... and laugh... and laugh."





- "I am a very loud yawner when sleepy. My family thinks it's very cute, so I keep doing it. (Maddie taught me that humans like it when their furkids are cute). I even yawn when I get very excited."

- "When playing inside the garden, I love to pull off rose petals with my teeth and then roll on top of them."

- "My favorite stuffed animal toy is my raccoon! Everyday I'm careful to hide it where no one but me can find it."

- "My family is always saying I'm very wild and mischievous. Kristin says God made me cute for a reason - whatever that means."





- "I could easily be mistaken for Maddie’s daughter. We look very much alike, and have even adopted each other's habits and mannerisms."

- "When in the backyard, I like to hop like a bunny rabbit over the leaves and any tall grass. Kristin thinks I'm confused, but I think hopping is just fun!"

- "My favorite game in the whole wide world is to tug on Kristin's robe with my teeth and then let her drag me around."

- "I behave like a cat a lot of the time; as in the way I sneak up on Maddie - back arched and walking ever so s-l-o-w-l-y towards her - and then pounce on her when she least expects it. It's great fun! I also bathe my face just as a cat does."





- "Whenever I want a toy or rawhide that Maddie has, I start acting all submissive by lying on my back. If that doesn't work... I stand up, very gently place my paw on her head, and then stare straight ahead without making a sound or looking at her. Maddie usually ignores me for 2 or 3 minutes, but then she lets me have whatever I want."

- "When someone's cooking and the timer on the stove starts to beep, I never fail to bark and tell my mother that dinner is ready."

- "Even though I'm obsessed with Wendy Kitty, I'm learning not to trust her. Whenever Wendy just sticks her paw out when I'm next to her, or is purposely blocking a room that I want to go in, I become so frightened of her possibly scratching me that I... well, my family calls it 'freaking out.' All I know is I get scared. Even when Wendy doesn't do anything, but I THINK she will, I start yapping and screaming at her so loudly that Maddie comes to my rescue. She tries to scare Wendy away, but so far the cat just stares back at her."
