Cats

That’s a really pretty feline. Reminds me of one my sister and I favored as kids on the farm.

 

Just chillin.

 

Using another cat as a cushion is acceptable. Bottom cat is fine; it's just a face he makes. They would stay like that for a half hour or more.
The fella on the bottom went on to bigger and better things after 20 years.

 

Don't recall if I posted this or not. We're still feeding and housing four feral cats: Xerox, Odo, Midnight and Gul de Kat--shouldn't have named them. They got kicked out of their place across the street by the bully, The Emperor Ming.
In any case, they've got a pretty nice hook up with food and water every day plus shelter in the winter. I keep an eye out for Ming and spray him with tap water.
I made three giant Rubbermaid homes with Styrofoam lining on all six sides plus straw (Michigan). I assisted my wife in making a wooden box with roof, large enough to cover all three with lots of space and lots of exits so they can't be cornered.

Koshka's made herself a nest...

 

A nest is important! Also to colour match it to ones own fur is important.

 

This is Cricket. Picture is a couple of years old, but I've always liked it because it looks like she took a selfie. (It's actually her look when she's terribly bored, waiting for me to be ready for playtime.)

 

We have 3 ferals that rotate through. 2 large bags of kibble a month on our Chewy order just for them

 

That's nice. Chewy's great. At the moment, it's the purple Costco bag--whatever that's called.
We had five ferals. Now and then, one just doesn't show up anymore. I pretend that they were taken in by a nice family.
If all goes well, we'll get them neutered in the spring. There are some decent options.

 

Wife sent me this of Half Pint today. I’ve been taking HP with me when I go out on the weekends. She’s been to the bank, liquor store, Home Depot, LHBS and other places. She is a chill kitty and people just love to meet her.
I had one woman ask to hold her telling me she highly allergic to cats. She said she has done research on hypoallergenic cats and may never meet another one. Devon Rex being the #1 hypoallergenic cat. She said she has Benadryl in her purse and knows the drill. She walked around with HP for 5 minutes loving on her with no effect. I have no idea what happened to her. I hope she’s still alive or at least has a Sphynx.

With all of HP travels and peoples smiles it has me researching making her a therapy cat.

 

Say, that guy looks familiar.

 

Wondering why the phone is 4 inches from her face.

 

The Rascal King sits on his windy springtime throne.
Meanwhile, his faithful servant of 13 years rakes pine needles from his realm.

 

LSD kitty has a weird time

"Mussolini Cat", he ain't...

 

Amazon package arrived but it's not working...

 

Never mind. Forgot to turn it on...

 

Clockwise, starting at 9: Hogarth (3 years old), Dashel (7) and Crunch (10). I'd love to say they're tight, but Dashel still has a tiny bee in his bonnet about Hogarth. It's something difficult to understand since Hogarth is basically a shiny rainbow in cat form, personality-wise.

 

"Oh! The tiny humanity!"

 

I literally thought you had a pic of my son for a second. That is awesome.

 

...

 

My wife's familiar looks like that cat, a little friggin puma. We figure if she was even 15-20# bigger/heavier, it would be dangerous to have her in house.

Hi is Nurgle. From Russia with love!

 

Cricket got some fresh catnip for Christmas. She's been frozen and just staring at me like this for a while. Must be some good stuff. Wonder how many heads I have.

Foster kitty

 

This is Moose. He's new. Sooo friendly, it's almost bizarre. I was far too optimistic in believing I could get a whole bunch of clear shots.
He did well in the litter box--at first. Everything was fine until he went crazy and began batting urine/litter chunks around.
I'll let my wife get a couple better ones.

 

Cute tabby

 

Adorable. And I consider a little craziness a sign of a bright, active kitten, and a sign of lots of fun ahead. Look forward to more pics!

 

Hi Moose! Welcome to the thread.

 

Cute baby!! My big boy when a kitten decided he didn't like the litter in the box and decided to empty it out all over the bathroom floor. SWMBO wasn't amused though I was laughing the entire time it took me to clean it up!!

 

Can't believe I just noticed this thread! Here's one of my several brew supervisors wishing she could be can art.

 

The Ghost kitty barely tolerating the heat...

 

Ditto. Good sign. I have to leave him alone a little so he'll get his sleep in.

 

Cats can be a pain in the a**, but they never fail to make me smile with they’re antics. It’s good that the cats that own us allow us to post about them.
Here I finally got a chance to photobomb Winkie.
