The Daily Wedge

As many of you know, Chris and I have an adorable, loving and asthmatic savannah cat named Wedge.  He has been featured in many of the pictures that I have posted as he "helps" me with many of my projects.

We adopted the little man from a shelter in Chinatown called Animal Haven. We knew he was our kitty when he came out of his cage, came right over to us and started licking us. We didn't know he was asthmatic until after we adopted him, but of course we love him just as much as we did before we knew (and he is definitely worth the extra expenses in inhalers). He's a savannah, so that is an African wild cat mixed with a domestic cat, then that cat is bred with another domestic cat and so on.*  It makes for a very beautiful and interesting looking kitty (long legs, long body, and an interesting combo of spots and stripes). They also have fantastic personalities.  They are very loving (they follow you everywhere and lick everything and want lots of cuddles and attention and are very playful) and very dog like (they will even play fetch with you).

Anyway, The Wedge (as we have taken to calling him) deserves some social media love Lil Bub/Grumpy cat style, so we created a tumblr for him.  TheWedgeIs is the Tumblr name. We post a picture a day, so keep checking back, and if you have a Tumblr make sure to follow us.  Also keep an eye out for Wedge's instagram.

*I will say that I am not personally a fan of breeders, I know that it can create health problems and is not the most natural thing in the world.  We did not support a breeder in getting Wedge, we actually had no idea what we were getting when we got him.
