I'm Notte.  Notte means "night" in English.  It's because I'm gorgeously, beautifully, completely black all over.  And shiny too!  So....that's my name.

I'm the youngest one here...sigh.  It's a problem sometimes.  They think I'm a baby.  But I'm not a baby anymore!!!  OK, I'm small.  But I'm NOT a baby!!  So....I have to prove it sometimes.  SO!  I go my own way.  It's breakfast time?  Pfffft.  So what?  I'll wait.   I'm not a...baby.  Sheesh.   

I can hold my own.  Lupo...he's like my "Dad."  I love Lupo.  We play and snuggle....he protects me. (But he doesn't have to because I'm all grown up!)  

Stupid Percy...he's a big lug...but he isn't that bad.....dumbass.  Hahaha.  He's easy to "fight" and get the better of.  

Scruffy is sweet and always nice, he's not a problem at all.

Calzini is fun and can be a fierce opponent sometimes.  But...nobody ever means any harm.  We are all family here.  Zini says we "are" real family, but I'm not sure what that means.

Missy Tee is sort of standoffish.  I don't know.  What did I do?  We don't NOT get along....she just mostly ignores me.  Oh, well.

Mom is happy lately because I have become a "bug hunter."  I can't help it!  There they are!  They come up under the floor tiles!! EEEEEEKKK!  So, I show her....and then the rug is moved, and Dad gets involved and he's on the floor, and lights are on and OMIGOD!!!  But, they are not mad at me, just happy.  Weird people.

My favorite place is the back window, to the balcony.  There is bird bath out there, and maybe some food.  So....all these birds come.  Crows, pigeons, chickadees, sparrows, finches....all kinds of birds.  It's so much fun to sit there and watch them...and they don't know I'm there!!

I also spend a lot of time on the people bed.  It's very comfy and there is a window in there, too.  Birds!!!  

So, that's my story....black is beautiful, isn't it?
