Hi there, my name is Tyson. I used to belong to my Mom's neice (Jessica). But when she was in the process of moving to Texas I got into a cupboard and somehow ended up under the house. No one could find me and with all the noise going on upstairs I was too scared to come out.

Every day after that my Grandma (Chris) would come over and call me and put food out. Everyone thought I was outside but I was inside. About a month later, the landlord had to get under the house for something and there I was. Pretty skinny and very scared. He called Chris and she came right over and took me to the vets. Other than losing about 1/2 my weight I was in pretty good shape. Chris was going to leave me there at the vets as she didn't have room for me at her house until Jessica came back up for a visit in a couple months. That is where my now Mom stepped in and said I could come and stay with her and she would get me back to a healthy boy.

Well try as Mom did she couldn't help but fall in love with me. I was such a cuddler and I love to give kisses and have my belly rubbed and snuggle. It was all set for Jessica to take me back to Texas with her.  Mom didn't want to part with me but she had made a deal and she know that Jessica really loved me. Well Jessica came for her visit and decided that I would be better off with Mom. She had a new job and wasn't home much and figured I'd get more attention here than going to Texas. So here I stay. I must admit its a little crowded with Tigger, Kali and Jake and Riley the two dogs but we all get along fine. Jake and I play chase. I haven't chased him yet but he sure seems to love to chase me. I always out run him though and I can fit under the bed and he can't

My favorite thing to do is get up on the counter and watch the fish in the tank, swimming around. I wonder how they do that. I also haven't figured out how to get in there either. Mom has it closed off pretty good.

My next favorite thing to do is take off from the runner in the kitchen and scrunch it all up  in a pile when zooming off into the bedroom. Oh and I love those little tiny fuzzy mice. Mom is so great every morning she gets down on her hands and knees and pulls some out from under the fridge or the stove for me so I have something to play with. I don't like to play with any other toy.
