Other pertinent information:

I am VERY allergic to her. She is an indoor cat but she can go in the backyard by herself (when we are home) and she won’t leave the yard. She cuddles with Jonelle, but only when I’m not home. There is a permanent cardboard box in the living room into which she usually jumps in the morning and in the evening. She has an automated litterbox. She likes to drink from the bathtub tap. The neighbour’s cat, Daisy, is her mortal enemy.

Here is a great little vid of Larissa and Mr. Bo!
