Meet PeopleCats of TopTropicals. Cat of the Day: Klaksa - the Mini Cat
Klaksa is a miniature 6 lb cat that lives together with Jim and Google. You can see all three of them wishing you Merry Christmas at
the top of this Newsletter.
Klaksa is the tiniest Purrson and yet she is the most energetic one. It is
almost impossible to take a picture of her because she never stops moving for
a second!
Klaksa came in 2016 as a little kitten, but she never grew up since!
She saw Google and Jim and said she could be a good addition to this "Man in Black" team. So she stayed.
Klaksa likes to attach/cling to someone. The boys can't avoid her company even if they wanted too! But who can say no to woman's attention?

Meet PeopleCats of TopTropicals. Cat of the Day: Google the Cat. The Brain.
Google is the second oldest cat of TopTropicals, after Jim. Google lives in the same house with Jim where they both help us to
develop new features for our website.
Google is the most intelligent cat on Planet Earth. Originally we got
him from an animal shelter after his first adoption failed: someone returned
him back to the shelter... It was hard to believe because he was so cute...
but soon enough, we realized why someone was spooked away... Google is TOO
smart! When he looks at you and rolls his eyes, you instantly have a feeling that
he can literally see through you, and read your mind...
It didn't scare us, of course. On opposite, Google became very helpful with
writing database codes, engineering difficult construction tasks, and other
comprehensive projects that require a brilliant intellect. Since 2007, Google
has been a personal assistant of one of the TopTropicals owners, and their
minds are worth each other. Google never leaves his desk until he makes sure
every complicated task is completed.
Google loves little children (for conversations), shrimp (for snacks)
and hi-tech projects (for fun).

Meet PeopleCats of TopTropicals. Cat of the Day: Jim the Founder
Jim is the oldest cat of Top Tropicals. In fact, he is one of the
Founders. In 2004 a tiny kitten showed up at first TopTropicals Nursery - a small
quarter acre in Ft Lauderdale... Jim looked very important and confident and
told us that he wants to stay with us because he sees a great future for
TopTropicals... and he was right. Since then, Jim traveled with us through all
nursery locations we ever had!
Jim used to lay on top of a warm monitor and help with our first
website designs... if you look at his favorite monitor in the picture, you now can
imagine how old this cat is!
In spite of his age, Jim is very active and likes to eat a lot. He
believes that a good meal is key to a healthy living, and prefers variety. He
eats everything: meat, fish, soup, pasta, pizza, veggies, cucumbers, salad...
eats well and stays healthy!
Jim happily participates in all costume parties. Yes, it is him in a
Santa costume greeting you at the top of this newsletter!
Don't miss out: Loquat Big Jim - we only have 4 plants, they all named after Jim!

Meet PeopleCats of TopTropicals. Cat of the Day: Kevin Coconuts, brother of James Coconuts
Many of you know well James Coconuts who has been in charge of our Customer Service. Only recently James discovered a twin brother! Kevin Coconuts lives with Sue and Mark (our horticulturist) and helps Mark to grow all his exclusive rare plants. Here is Kevin's story told by Sue...
"...One fall day about a year ago we had a visit from a gangly little stray who seemed drawn to our home. We originally thought he was the kitty from across the street, as his markings are almost identical. We repeatedly shooed him off but the next day, there he was again. His unassuming, humble personality drew us in. Upon closer observation we could see he was a male, while the one across the street is female, so we realized he did not belong over there. He seemed to have nowhere else to go...
With his silly playful attitude, Kevin wormed his way into our hearts
and we decided to accept him as one of ours. Upon entering our house for the
first time, he seemed to know his way around, and within a couple hours he was
fast asleep on the couch. Our two other cats (Amun & Midnight) did not seem
perturbed, which is very unusual for CATS, as anyone with cats knows! We have
enjoyed Kevin's warm and comical demeanor and could not imagine life without him. He is a bright light that lifts the hearts of all who meet him!"
