Everyone loves Mike. People stop to pet him. He greets all the customers we visit. Motorist point at him and tell us how cute he is along with toll-booth attendants. He loves to ride with us all over along with our other two cats. He makes life bearable on the road as our constant entertainment.

Here he's showing off fairly recent wins at the Old Town Rig Down event in Nacogdoches, Texas. Look for Graveran out at the Stars, Stripes and White Lines event this week in Atlanta.
