Name: Venezia
Age: 3 Years
Breed:
Owner: Tanya Velardo
Hometown: Warrenton, MO
Likes: to catch flies with one paw, chasing the laser light and throwing small balls of paper around the house
Dislikes: being home alone and having her stomach rubbed
Tanya Velardo says:
I bought Venezia as a six-week old kitten in Eastern Europe and she quickly became my special little buddy and my family while I lived away from home for 3 years. She made the long airplane journey with me to the States and has been the constant in my life for the past 3 years. She is always by my side making me smile while chasing paper or a fly. She is addicted to climbing as high as possible and always greets me at the door when I come home. I know she is always waiting for me and will always be by me as my special buddy.
