This is Rowdy. She's all black so it's hard to tell, but she has her back legs up and over. Usually they go over her head. That's how Rowdy cats clean their tails.

She is also my inspiration for getting kids excited about writing. I tell Rowdy stories and sometimes we write from Rowdy's perspective. (For example: her favorite toy, Pink Ribbon, has vanished- where could it be?) I also have a class pet named Rowdy. I'll be sure to post about that tomorrow!
