Hobbes's Story

Hobbes is a shy and smart ginger boy with a squeaky meow. He feels more confident when is brother Calvin is with him. He is super playful and his favorite toy is the feather wand toy. He loves to jump up high and climb to catch his "prey." Some of his favorite pastimes are sitting in the window and watching the critters outside, wrestling with Calvin and trying to woo the female resident cats. He is still very skittish and will take a while to warm up to a new person. He is very difficult to catch and does not like to be held. However, he does enjoy gentle pets.
