I feel as though Dexter is an old soul. There’s something about his expression and ability to just be still and relaxed that makes me believe he is wise beyond his years. Perhaps it’s just me projecting a strife filled back-story onto him? While he was a shelter cat and found on the street for all I know he grew-up in just as pampered a household as Watson. His need for snuggles and love of people would certainly attest to having been raised in a true home but his eyes seem to say something entirely different. Either way he’s been a stellar influence on hyperactive Watson and balances out our cute kitty duo perfectly. Dexter is finally the cat who crawls willingly onto my lap and sleeps heavily while I read — something I’ve been hoping Watson would do for months. Don’t worry. Watson is still my loving little guy he’s just too busy eating the Whole Foods reusable bags to bother with bookish pursuits.
Dexter began sleeping in this glass bowl recently. I’m not sure if I can think of anything that could be more uncomfortable to nap in other than perhaps a bed of nails but he just adores it. Unfortunately I had to take it away as he was scratching the finish on the dining room table with all of his settling in movements. As you can see, Watson doesn’t know quite what to think but he has to keep an eye on Dex at all times so he stays the course.
And, of course, an obligatory shot of six of Dexter’s infamous twenty-five toes. I so wish I could have had him as a kitten. How cute would he have been as a little ball of grey fluff gingerly prancing about on over-sized paws?!

Hi Erin,
Dexter is a wonderful kitty I am so glad you rescued him! My cat likes to sleep in the bathroom sink when it is hot out, I think they like the coldness??? I wonder if Dexter really came from the streets, you know the first weeks of a kittens life usually determines how they will act with humans. If they are handled by humans and held they are more likely to be a cuddly cat. But then again they are cats and do whatever they please. I can not wait for more pictures of both of them!
hi can i buy ur cat
That looks exactly like my cat! Everything! The shape, the colour, the features, the patterns, the size, EVERYTHING! š®
My cats name is Dexter!!! We named him Dexter after the show because he is like a killer by night and normal and cuddly by day…until we got him desexed
He was found in a dumpster in a plastic bag with 5 other kittens, one had to be put down because it had a broken spine š
He was a lovely cat and I’ve had him for about 2 years up until less than a month ago! :'(
He went missing for a week and then we found him out the front of the people across the road from us yard right next to the road and we think they poisoned him because we definetely did not see him, he was cold but it was like he had just died, no marks or anything and he was trapped and sent to the pound by someone in our street so we had to get him out and pay for the fees and then a couple weeks later, this ^ happened. I’M STILL HEARTBROKEN! I miss him so much! :'( I LOVE HIM!!! BEST KITTY EVER! I still grieve and I don’t think I’m ready for a new cat yet but since we’re moving in a year or two, I will get a cat then because not only would the cat be away from this neighbourhood if someone did kill him but also because I’d be over Dexter by then…
P.S… My cat had a spotty tummy, did yours? cya š
