Nicknamed RowzyPaws (by my father), Nokomis is a longhaired, 12-yr-old spayed female, black w/ white ear tufts & a small white spot @ her throat & @ her belly; she's been w/me since she was almost 1 yr old, when as I was about to go to the shelter to get a cat, & a neighbor who had to move & couldn't take her asked me if I'd give her a home. Now I couldn't imagine life or my home without my darling girl, complete w/sassy attitude, funny endearing ways, & full range of expression in every way possible.
