This was the only true way to show what an unique personality their feline had towards others without missing information. While taking these possibilities in mind, I altered these unique coding system towards people of all kinds. Since certain people do act similiarly like animals, and cats sometimes have the characteristics of humans. and with my thoughtfulness and dedication, I took the best of both and created this new wave of codes to demonstrate that it may help to understand people with a different perpective: not just the main physical attributes, but themental/emotional part that usually gets lost. These codes are just to help people find someone by not just physical, but more towards the inside of a cat. -- Toby (BGK - Pres. of Meow-Meows) :) Smurgle Purr Meow :) >Blue Gay Kitty's Version of: (updated 8/28/95) > >CCCCCCC AAA TTTTTTT CCCCCCC OOOOOOO DDDDD EEEEEEE SSSSSSS >CC C A A TTT CC C O O D DD EE SS SS >CC AA AA TTT CC O O D DD EE SS S >CC AAAAAAA TTT CC O O D DD EEEEE SSSSS >CC AA AA TTT CC O O D DD EE S SS >CC C AA AA TTT CC C O O D DD EE SS SS >CCCCCCC AA AA TTT CCCCCCC OOOOOOO DDDDD EEEEEEE SSSSSSS > >(C) 1995 Smurgle Purr Meow Chapter of NJ > > Blue Gay Kitty (tobster@terrapin.rutgers.edu) > AKA Toby Ridgeway > > >======================================================================== >= Physical Attributes = >= = >= These describe the physical appearce of the cat and must be listed = >= in the order shown here.
