He smells yummy.
He makes sweet sounds, like sighs and snuffles and snores.
He’s a luxurious and decadent creature.
He snuggles up and wraps his arm around me when we’re falling asleep.
He holds hands with me.
Nobody naps better than Duncan.
He’s got all the best dog-like qualities: he follows me around, he likes to watch me cook, he comes when he’s called.
He makes me laugh.
He’s got personality and good looks.
He likes it when I wake him up for a hug.
He strokes my face with his big soft velvety paw.
I didn’t know any of these things about him when I chose him from among all the cats at the Humane Society, but somehow I picked the perfect cat for me. (Robin helped. Robin pointed right at Duncan and said “Zoom, I think you should get that one.”)
I love this picture my son took of Duncan and me on his cell phone.

Sounds to me like you are the perfect person for Duncan – lucky feline!
Look at the size of his paws! They are huge!
I feel the same way about my Tux
Great post! I got an SPCA cat and knew nothing about her at first, either, and I too know that I got the perfect cat for me (even though she’s a brat at times!).
I could see that you wanted him. I thought maybe you weren’t sure if you could live up to such a spectacular cat. I was just interpreting you to yourself.
That’s 11 things… well 12 if you count his good looks.
It’s a great photo. He looks like he’s protecting you from the paparazzi… while hiding under a giant orange fur blanket.
And my crush on Duncan deepens.
It’s interesting an eerie how our animal familiars find their way into our lives. Duncan obviously chose you, as much, if not more than you chose him.
Funny, my cat holds hands with me too!
Ah l’amour! When she is good, she is very good, n’est ce pas?
