Pepper Mille:  How does it feel to be a Halloween cat?  Do mew think being all black is unlucky? 

 Pepper:  It's great to be a Halloween cat! I think Halloween is a fun holiday cause we can purrtend to be something we are not.
 We can be funny, scary, silly, majestic or anything else! 

Pepper Mille: Are mew an adopted kitty? How old are mew?

Pepper: I was adopted by my Meowmie when I was about 8 months old.
I had another family, but I guess they didn't want me any
more, cause one day we went fur a car ride and they left
me at a strange place that had lots of tires and cars and
other stuff there. There was a big group of cats already 
there, but they didn't like me so I was all alone.
One day I heard somebody calling fur a kitty. It was a
different voice, so I came out to investigate. 
It was a nice lady but I was too scared to get close to her.
Later on I got curious and followed her and jumped into her car.
I was just looking around when SHE leaped into the car, too.
She came right through the window so there was no way I could
escape. I thought she was catnapping me but really she was 
rescuing me. I am a lucky kitty. I am 4 years old.

 Pepper Mille: Do mew live wif offur kitties? 

Pepper:  When I furst got adopted, there were only 6 of us. We have grown a lot since then.
 I have 7 brofurs and 4 sisfurs now. We also have a big
d*ggie named Poochie Pie.

   Pepper Mille:   What are mewr favorite foods?

 Pepper:  I like all food! I think cheese might be my favorite, though.
 
Pepper Mille: Do mew haf a favorite sleeping place?

Pepper: We have lots of kitty beds and condos, small and tall kitty furniture. There is one kitty bed that looks like a slipper.
 That's Sassy's favorite place to sleep. I like the one that
  looks like a tree trunk. I also like to take cat naps
 with my brofurs and sisfurs on the big sofa.
But the bestest place to sleep is in Meowmie's bed,
snuggled up close to her. 

Pepper Mille: Thank mew Duke Pepper mew are a very lucky kitty to be wif such a loving furrmily.

Pepper:  Thanks fur letting me be in the Halloween Black Cat contest. It was a lot of fun. All the other kitties were really cool.
I think they all deserve a round of applause.

Send Duke Pepper congratulations?
