Owner: Lauren Davis
Cat's Name: Sharky
Breed: Domestic Short Hair
Age: 5 years old

About the Winner:
Here is what Lauren has to say about her handsome boy, Sharky.

" Sharky is a 5 year old 'blue" cat I adopted as a kitten at a Dallas animal Shelter in 2000.  We now reside back in Pensacola florida where I was born.  He loves long naps, running around the house like a crazy kitty and wearing his favorite bowtie.  He also loves modeling for me, (since I'm a animal artist) you will often find him striking a pose.  He is a shy guy to those he doesn't know but give him a little time and kindness and he just might jump in your lap!

Tim Cuthbertson has a long scratch down his arm, now nearly healed. It's the latest reminder of his cat's favorite game -- wrestling.

"Once a day, he'll come up and bite me on the arm," Mr. Cuthbertson said. "The only time it's really annoying is when he'll do it when I'm trying to sleep. He'll come up and bite me on the face."

Aggression toward people is a problem most commonly associated with dogs, but cat owners also deal with this issue. Though it's not one of the top 10 reasons for turning cats over to shelters, it plays a significant role in the number of cats turned over for behavioral reasons. A 2000 study of 12 shelters by the National Council on Pet Population Study and Policy, published in the Journal of Applied Animal Welfare Science, found that about 14 percent of owners turning in their cats for behavioral reasons only listed aggression toward people as the basis, with about 9 percent citing biting. The numbers dropped only slightly, to about 11 and 8 percent, respectively, for mixed behavioral and non-behavioral reasons.
