Mittens The Cat Videos!
July 3, 2009 by garypope
“Mittens” The Cat has been a fixture at The Winds for years and as usual she has been expending as little energy as possible during these long hot summer days.
Here she is on a lazy day lounging around The Winds Resort Beach Club . “Its a rough job but someone’s got to do it” said Mittens when we spoke to her later in the day.
Mittens showed up one day as a kitten and settled into her new home. She earns her keep by running pesky varmints away from The Winds. The rest of the time she either sleeps or entertains the children by permitting them to love on her. She is very gentle and loves to be loved!
Love the videos about Mittens. Just curious, since this cat makes so many people happy, does she have someone responsible for her vet care? If not, maybe it would be possible to involve the community- ask local businesses to set up jars on the counter to accept donations for her. She deserves it! And if someone is already doing this for the cat, bless you.
One of the many reasons my family enjoys The Winds is Mittens. We have four kids and they all have fond memories of Mittens the Mascot. Before we found out her name was Mittens we called her Popeye because of her unusual looking left eye. On our way to The Winds we always make a stop at the grocery store to pick up a can or two of cat food (now easier with the new Lowes near the bridge on the mainland). Speaking of names, my daughter Sophia is thrilled that “Windy” was chosen as the name for turtle since she was one of the people who entered that name in your contest. Thanks again for the great memories. We all love staying at The Winds!
Yes Mittens has been spayed and does visit the local vet! Thanks for asking! We hope she is with us for many more years.
