Cats .. all about only cats

[Cascadian]

We have 5 cats. 3 outdoor and 2 part time house kitties. There is no cat box in the house. However the she shed has one. I don't chase them around taking pictures but when the opportunity arises I will get pics.

Tweety came in and blessed us with his presence.

We can do cats- Beans went missing recently, I have two, Bucky & Diego who moved down the the neighbours when we got one of the dogs. So we have three here.
Phoebe, her daughter I.T. (Inky Toes) and Bronn the tabby

The Empress Monarch Meadow of Dunraven, is Miffed, Some clown parked a computer in her nap spot. I suspect the Guillotine is being sharpened.

 

[Amish Heart]

Oh, poor girl, give her a box

 

[dademoss]

Oh, poor girl, give her a box

LOL, there are so many boxes and cat beds, but you know, it's HER SPOT, I chose to put a computer while I cleaned . I will NEVER win . I'm a guy.....

Sunrise is gonna suck.

Husband's wheelchair on the covered front porch is a spot for two cats. When I open the door to help him from the walker to the wheelchair, I ALWAYS have to boot off the cats, and they are so offended. Then they sit on his walker seat. And wait till we get home.

 

[LadyLocust]

Yes, ma'am!

He was waiting so patiently for you to put them back on.

 

[Pearl]

Oh, poor girl, give her a box

Or just move that crap out of her way!! Dang humans!!

Maybe hes feeling the damp in his 8 year old bones, but our outside cat, Bronn aka Oddball has for the first time started to come upstairs, where the indoor cats sleep during the day. Up until this week, hes never step foot upstairs. I walked in to find this today.

My Bushie ****oo passed on last evening around 7pm est... I had the Pleasure of watching Her Grow into a Beautiful 4-legged Family Member...!!! I heard a thump, kinda like when She jumps from the Window Sill to come find Me or get to the Water Bowl in the Hallway... As I was on the pc, I could look to the Hallway and see Her, only this time She wasn't there... I got up and went looking as I got close to that bedroom Door I heard movement, I looked in Thinking She might have gone into the closet, Nope, looked towards the window and there She was on the floor , I tried rubbing Her sides like I have done before but this time She let out Air as Her Mouth went open trying to call Me for Help... I was too late, I couldn't bring Her back... I scooped Her Up and Her head went backwards, She must have had a seizure and Hit Her head and the floor upon falling down... I carried her to the couch and laid Her on My Chest, I could Feel Her Purring AS I held Her, after a couple of Minutes I took Her outside to the backyard where the two chairs are, She always liked it there, I sat down with her again still Petting Her... A few more minutes passed and I said We are going back inside as it is getting late, back inside I sat back on the couch and laid down on a pillow still holding Her to My Chest with My Left Arm while stroking Her side with My Right Hand,,, I/We stayed like this for almost 2 hours until I Knew She was gone as She was getting cool... I Placed Her on My pc chair in Her Fetal Position after pushing Her Legs as close to Her Body as I could, covered Her and she spent the night there next to Me on the Couch...

This am I prepared Her for Her next Forever Spot in the backyard... I put a pic of Her in the Garden 2024 sitting in a certain spot back there and that is where I Laid Her to Rest...

May She REST in Peace... She was My Last LOVE...!!!

She was beautiful and she was very precious.

Sorry for your loss. We lost our old man cat, "Raisin" last year. He was alive forever. I was glad to have him on my lap when he passed.

I was raised with cats, they was not pets, they were hunters.
Never had cats after leaving home.

This is Bob. We got him at a feed store in Eagle River, Alaska when he weighed about 5 ounces. He lived to be 17 years old and weighed just under 20 pounds. He had diabetes for the last 7 years of his life. I gave him two shots of insulin a day. He reminded me when it was time for the shots. He snored, he drooled when he was purring heavily but he was always a nice boy. I think he was my favorite kitty of all, but, all of my cats have been favorites at some point in their life... any time I was holding them, feeding them, petting them, or talking to them.

He lived in Alaska, Colorado, and Oklahoma and did the drive from Anchorage to Denver with a stop in Seattle. Well-traveled cat.

Bob's cuteness in his Christmas outfit is eclipsed by his obvious look of joy at wearing it.

Bob loved his fierce lion cut:
