Hankie




Meet Hankie. He lives with Charlotte.

“Hankie is a 7-year-old orange tabby who was adopted from the old Shelter
on Cerrillos Road about six years ago. His Shelter name was Woody. He's turned out to be a smallish cat but is big on personality. Confident of his own charm, he is far from shy and always makes himself the center of attention during parties, insinuating himself onto every lap in turn (without waiting to be invited). Hank had a terrible episode with an oral infection and was mauled by a dog just when he was beginning to recover. I thought I was going to lose him but meticulous care has brought him back to his robust, cheerful stinker self. He lords it over my other cats, and wakes me up in the morning by biting my nose. He loves licking cooking oil and his preferred toy is an empty grape stem.”
