Summer Case got her cat Misty a year ago literally as a kitten. Misty's mom, Bella lives with Summer's family and Summer shares Misty and Bella with her whole family. Misty has a habit of batting at your leg as you walk by.

"I think she's really playful," Summer said. While Misty apparently has aspirations to go outside "She doesn't like the outdoors, she's an inside cat," Summer continued, but "When she sees a bird moving around in the sky she meows at it. She talks like she's chewing it."

Misty is very compatible with dogs and from what the family has observed it is probably because she acts a lot like one.
"She's pretty much like a dog. She fetches and she sits," Summer said.

Misty likes Friskies cat food, salmon and some 'people food' once in a while. She usually sleeps on the couch or sometimes with Summer.
"I just know she's a cute playful kitty," Summer said.
