CEO

CEO is an FIV positive cat living in the New AIDS building. She was trapped by Carol in 2005.

Cats are sometimes named after the location they were trapped, in this case around the parking lot of a paint company of River Road in Richmond... presumably near the CEO's parking spot.


She's a bit timid and may hiss when approached, but even with my big scary camera she did eventually consent to being stroked and tickled under the chin. Gaye says a little gift of chicken helps a lot in getting past her defenses.

  1. CIL who is in the backyard/double was also trapped there. We were desperate for names at the time I think!

  2. CIL - that's the name of the paint company, right? I didn't know we had another cat from there!

  3. Carol was stuck for a name for CEO. I was with Carol when she was trapped. Carol had her car parked in the spot marked CEO, thus I suggested CEO.
