“Hello, hello! I am Apple – and I am not good to eat. I am good to see and good to watch, though. I am tabby and/or tortie – tell you what, I’m torby. I have stripes and spots and many colors. I rarely stop moving and, occasionally, I talk. Watch me – you will see a long-legged model, striding down her runway, showing off her fall coat. I stride with power, and I sit tall while I wait my turn.”

“Think that’s all? Sit down a spell and pay attention. I have serious black lynx tufts on top of my ears. And what ears I have! Not just regular nice girl cat ears. No! I have airplane ears – wings, I say. I am learning to wiggle them. If I succeed, I will soar, right across the room. In the meantime, I soar across the room on my four strong feet. Love me, pet me, admire me! I am Apple, the woman of many colors – and talents, too.”

“If I weren’t so clearly a woman, I’d say that I’m handsome. Women can be handsome, right? I am cuddly, but I wouldn’t call me cute. Striking! Yes, that’s what I say I am. I am Apple, and I say I am the Cat of Your Dreams. Not a fruit. Not an electronics company – although, when you adopt me, because you will, you could give me a new iPod. I had one – listened to bouncing music for my runway walks. It got lost somewhere. Now, Apple is Apple-less. You knew I’d say that, didn’t you?”

“Cats like me don’t come around every day. You’re looking for a cat who is good to see, good to watch, handsome, striking, and blessed with airplane ears. You’re looking for me, Apple! Scoop up your $120 and stride over to Feline Rescue. I’m waiting for you!”
