Diego Declared Cutest Cat in Columbia!

Columbia, we have a winner! After an exciting multi-day voting race, the title of Cutest Cat in Columbia has been awarded to none other than Diego, a delightful 1-year-old orange and white kitty. This charming little feline managed to win the hearts of many and claimed the first-ever title through a special poll, capturing a staggering 68% of the total votes cast.

A Closer Look at Diego

Diego was one of 38 adorable competitors, but he stood out from the crowd with his fun personality and playful spirit. During the final voting round, Diego emerged as a clear frontrunner with 724 votes out of a total of 1,061. Meanwhile, his closest rival, Pepper, managed to snag 260 votes, followed by Dora with 56 votes and Ashlee finishing with 21 votes.

Meet Diego’s Proud Owner

Diego’s journey to fame and fortune began when his owner, Khyra Taylor, became his forever family. Khyra shared how Diego came into her life as part of a pair of kittens she and her family were supposed to temporarily foster. “One week, she asked our family to ‘kitten-sit’ while she went out of town, after which she was going to give them to a permanent home,” Taylor explained in an email. However, upon meeting the kittens, it was love at first sight. She added, “We planned to care for them until it was time for them to leave, but they immediately stole our hearts, and our home became their forever home.”

Life with Diego

Living with Diego is a bundle of joy for the Taylor family. “We love him so much,” Khyra expressed, emphasizing that Diego is always the first one to greet them in the morning. He has a knack for ensuring that every day is filled with fun and cuddle time. In addition to his cuddly nature, Diego loves delicious treats like chicken, salmon, and tuna. His day-to-day life mostly consists of playing, sleeping, and occasionally soaking up some sunshine in his outdoor play tent.

When it comes to playtime, Diego is the ultimate fun-seeker. His favorite toys are those delightful sparkle and catnip balls that keep him bouncing around the house. Khyra described him as a “cuddle-loving” cat who never turns down a chance for affection.

Celebrating the Win

Now that Diego is officially crowned the cutest cat of Columbia, the Taylor family is ready to celebrate! Khyra shared plans for a festive “Cutie PAW-Tootie” party that promises to be filled with toys and his favorite crunchy and lickable treats. What a lovely way to honor their furry champion!

Conclusion

Diego’s victory not only showcases how adored he is but also reflects the strong community spirit among cat lovers in Columbia. With his cuddly nature and playful personality, it’s clear why Diego captured so many hearts—and votes! Perhaps this is just the beginning of a wonderful adventure for Diego and the Taylor family as they bask in the glory of being the cutest cat family in town!
