Name: Oreo
Nickname: Chubba
Born: October 2002
Lives in: Savage
Lives with: Kendra Sundvall, Kendra’s mother and Oreo’s sister Scooter.
Oreo was rescued from the Minnesota Valley Humane Society. She crawled on Kendra and wouldn’t get off. “Love at first sight,” Kendra retells. They adopted her sister Scooter at the same but they don’t get along much. “They’ve never really acted like sisters.”
When I first got her, she stole my Oreo cookies off the counter. I wanted to name her something more special but it was too true to pass by. Even still, when you open a bag of Oreo cookies she comes running instantly like most cats would for tuna.
Oreo can be conversational and will verbally respond to you. “Sometimes she gets fussy and meows louder… or quiet depending on what we’re talking about,” Kendra adds. Oreo also likes batting pencils and paintbrushes around on the floor. Even though she’s an indoor cat, Oreo once ate through a screen door and snuck outside with Scooter.
One thing Oreo loves is attacking the mouse cursor on a computer. “I’m shocked my laptop is still in tact, to be honest.”
Kendra is a student and budding photographer. Some of her work can be found on Flickr. She is looking to continue studying photography and further persuing a career in photojournalism.
More photos of Oreo can be found searching the “oreo” tag on Kendra’s Flickr account. Be sure to click through to the next few pages as there’s some really great photos of Oreo.
