Bobby Grey: The cat with a fondness for paper bags

This Persian lad loves to sit in the odd empty paper bag or follow his momma around the house, earning himself the nickname 'Momma's Royal Guard'.

Bobby Grey is a Persian cat who loves to cuddle and nibble the fingers of those who tickle his belly.

Bobby Grey took up residence with Faiz and Julia around March this year when he was only two months old. Today this Persian has blossomed into a dashing young lad weighing almost four kilograms.

Despite being a little older and a whole lot heftier, Bobby Grey is very much a kitten at heart, still loving to cuddle with his human family and playfully nibbling at their fingers when they tickle his round belly.

He has a fondness for paper bags in any shape or form so if he so much as spots one, he jumps right into it, claiming ownership.

Unable to resist an empty paper bag, Bobby Grey has often torn bags in his attempt to fit his big bottom into it.

His motto is: “If I fit, I sit”. Then come the acrobatics as he manoeuvres his ample bottom into the bag, shoving so hard he often times causes a huge tear that he’s oblivious about.

When he’s not on the lookout for an empty bag, he shadows his momma around the house, something he’s so intent on doing that he’s been nicknamed “Momma’s Royal Guard” and sometimes “Momma’s Nepali Guard”.

Bobby Grey has definitely stolen the hearts of everyone in the family who shower him with love and affection morning, noon and night. So loved is he, that he even has an Instagram account of his own called MrBobbyGrey.

When not on the hunt for paper bags, Bobby Grey likes to either ruminate about the future or literally dream about it.
