Seattle rescue kitty wins film award [Henri!]
The Oregonian ^ | 10/12/12 | RJ

Posted on 10/20/2012 12:35:05 PM PDT by Slings and Arrows

Tuxedo cat Henry, who stars as Henri the Existential Cat in a series of cat videos, won the first Golden Kitty People’s Choice Award for the short film Henri 2, Part De Deux. His director, Seatttle resident Will Braden, picked up the award at the Internet Cat Video Film Festival in Minneapolis.

In a Seattle Times story, Braden revealed that Henri, whose dry sarcasm and seemingly wry facial expressions have viewers rolling in the aisles, was originally a shelter cat.  Henri now lives in a good home and enjoys his acting duties, which include being rewarded with treats for sitting where Braden puts him.

Shelter cats come with an amazing variety of personalities, and can become the perfect companions - whether you're looking for a playful, quiet, or affectionate companion.  Talk with the shelter volunteers before adopting to find the right pet for you.  Who knows what amazing tricks your new best friend could learn?

It’s HUGE. Don’t make this model anymore; haven’t for 10yrs. I bought biggest one available. Figured it’d be fun to fill it up, rather than fill up a smaller one, and have to buy another or stop buying toys. It’s not anywhere near filled up, but everything inside is extremely choice and well chosen. Took a large CAT front end loader to move it in here, empty.

It’ll hold 36 long guns on the left side, with 5 shelves on the right. All ammo is now stored on shelves next to it. LED lights, door hangers, padded shelves. Very plush inside. Dry-stick and special desiccant containers. Note the 105mm and 40mm shells on top. From a USAF Capt/ friend’s AC-130H gunship in Afghanistan. He had some serious nice toys on that gunship.
