Cat Connection's Cat of the 2004
Congratulations Ronnie!

We have added a new tradition to the popular Cat of the Month contest here at the Cat Connection. At the end of the year we compiled all 24 winners (including poll winners and CC winners) over the past 12 months. We then held an internal poll from employees and store customers over a two week period. We are proud to announce the first annual Cat Connection Cat of 2004 as Ronnie Pabst. Ronnie and Dawn Pabst will receive a $75 gift certificate that can be used online or in store.

Originally, Ronnie was the winner of the November 2004 Photo Contest (voted by the wonderful people here at the Cat Connection). Ronnie stole the hearts of the Cat Connection employees and customers alike.

About the Winner
Ronnie is a 1 1/2 year old gorgeous red Abyssinian who was named after the redheaded character Ron Weasley from the Harry Potter movies. He came into the Pabst's lives February of this year as a retired show cat that achieved his Premiership. His favorite toy is the DA-Bird and any box that is big enough for him to crawl in. His favorite place to hang out is on the top level of his cat tree where he can keep an eye on everything going on in the house. Ronnie is not much of a lap cat, but always has to be in the same room as Dawn. He is a very special little guy and has even made non-cat people fall in love with him.
