Professor X

Professor X’s mum, Clara Lee, told us all about Professor X.

Professor X was found in a dumpster just a few days old. He came to me as a bottle baby, and I assumed he would go up for adoption when he was old enough.

I have been looking for a way to honor my husband’s memory, and Professor X had such an outgoing but calm personality, I thought he would make a great catexplorer and therapy cat.

Now not only do we get to go do exciting things in the wilderness, but we also bring great joy to hospice and long-term hospital patients who are missing their cats.

What would Professor X say is their personality?

I think Professor X would say that he is brilliant, confident, and loving.

I would say he is all of those things, and also somewhat spoiled and can be a tad bossy.

If Professor X could speak, what would be the most common thing they would say?

Hurry up, Mamma, let’s go!

What has Professor X achieved that has made you the proudest?

When he achieved his certification as a registered therapy cat, and he makes me proud every single time we go to a hospital or event and he is sweet, generous, and patient.
