Our origin story

In May of 2005, an adorable pair of kittens were just pulling up to their new home. It was their first time leaving the shelter since they arrived just after birth. Their names are Cheeto and Leyla, only 2 lbs each… Cheeto is a short-hair mackerel tabby (male). Leyla is a short-hair bicolor black and white female. They were not from the same mother, but they could not have been closer siblings.

a week earlier…
Like most new pet owners, I couldn’t believe how quickly and deeply I fell in love with my new companions… it took longer for me to walk into the shelter than it did for me to id Cheeto and Leyla. It was love at first sight. Cheeto climbed up my shirt and onto my shoulder, while Leyla hugged tightly to my shirt and meowed at me with the most adorable eyes and pink nose.

I melted… and loved every moment of it. But I couldn’t take them home yet, I had to wait a little while longer so they could grow up enough to be spayed and neutered. So a week later I came back to pick them up.

It only took a day or two for me to notice that Cheeto was fearless of loud things. Then I noticed that his ears never moved, while leyla’s were constantly pinpointing noises. Leyla also spent a lot of time licking the inside of Cheeto’s ears. that’s when it hit me… Cheeto was deaf.

This left me with a tough decision. I’d never considered keeping a cat indoors, but I’d never considered having a deaf cat either. What to do? A car, a dog or even a bicycle could end badly for him, and it only had to happen once. So I decided to keep him indoors, and if Cheeto couldn’t go out then neither could Leyla.

I wanted to make up for this indoor limitation, so I visited some pet stores and checked out all the different furniture options. I realized that my options at the store weren’t necessarily all that great, so I decided to make my own cool cat stuff using those same designs… but with a twist! Thus the beginning of Urban Feline.
