I have been recieving some fabulous dressed-up kitties lately from Halloween! In an attempt to stretch out my favorite time of the year as long as possible, any costumed kitties who appear in my inbox (vancitykitty@vancouverisawesome) will get posted before any other kitties up until December. (But really, cats in outfits are welcome in my life at any point in the year.)

Here are the deets on Napoleon, submitted by VIA reader Jennifer B!

Breed/Colouring: Basic orange

Hood: After living in Regina for a stint away from Jennifer, being apart became too much for her and Napoleon was swiftly booked on a flight over to his current happy home in East Van.

Habits: Napoleon loves being spooned. If he catches you in bed or on the couch without him, he paws at the blanket until he's pulled in and cuddled close.

Hangouts: Other people's homes. Tu casa es su casa (how's my Spanish?) and he will wander in and chill with all of his neighbours. Jennifer tells us "Napoleon has no boundaries."

Name: Napoleon (strictly named after Napoleon Bonaparte - not Napoleon Dynamite.)

Favorite Things: Being kissed, cuddles, and loved by anyone and everyone.

Other Info:  "I was lucky enough to come across Napoleon when a friend of mine could no longer take care of him. I've had him for almost 4 years now and with everything he's gone through (going from home to home in Saskatchewan while I was living in Vancouver to being put on a plane and flying across provinces to Vancouver.) He is the most chill best cat ever. Nothing phases him - he also always poses for the camera; he has the best expressions."

Can you even handle this? Good thing it's blurry or the perfect mix of colour, expression, and backwards clown hat might have broken my brain a little:
