Appleby and her siblings Bernard and Hacker were found in the middle of Roswell Road on a very hot July day. Later they gained another sibling when Dorothy was introduced to the group.
Appleby is much more outgoing than her brothers, but less outgoing than Dorothy. She’s very much a monkey-see, monkey-do kind of kitty—anything that another cat does and gets away with, she’s going to try to do as well. When she decides she’s ready to trust you, she can be very affectionate. She’s not a lap cat, but will let you hold her and will purr softly while you do so.
She is extremely cross-eyed, like her brother Bernard. This gives her problems when trying to drink out of a still water bowl (she will splash it ALL OVER the place). She does better if she has access to a water fountain or a running faucet. She gets very excited about food, and tends to wind up with it all over her face (she’s not the most graceful girl).
