Let's See Your Cats!!!

I’ve always said that 8 cats is the perfect number

 

My maximum is 3.

 

I told my wife if went past three cats, I get to up the crazy cat lady lives her sign. Outside. For all the world to see. We didn't exceed three.

 

I hear that. In reality the 6 we have inside aren't too bad. At least they all get along decent. I sure wouldn't want any more cats inside though. Maybe it's not that odd or rather it happens more frequently but for as much as I didn't consider myself a cat person I've grown to love and appreciate them. There is the one that craves attention more than any other...sometimes it's a little bothersome but I always take the time....daily...sometimes 3 or 4 times daily

 

I wasn't a cat person when I met my wife. She said she comes with a cat. 25 years later... I actually rescued one myself a few years after we got married. A tuxedo Maine Coone. Gorgeous cat, a real sweetheart I named Squeak. It was really a sad day when she passed 18 years later. Back to the crazy cat lady sign, I was secretly hoping that if she did I'd have my leverage for a dog. That finally happened and I have a "tuxedo" Mini Bernadoodle.

My last picture of Squeak carrying one of her "babies".

Tessa at about 10 months with Sampson in the background. No, they aren't best buds yet.

 

Hhmmmm. Should I reach in there and pet the kitty?

 

The eyes say no...

 

"I dare you hooman."

 

You be drawing back bacon strips

 

Crazy cat is sleeping in the first picture, when I walked in he was laying there doing something in the second one.

 

"I" too was in that very category of not being a "cat person" up until after my brother had passed away and nobody was willing to take his approx 2yr old cat who just had a litter barely 2 or 3 weeks old. Everyone was saying, "oh, I can't have a cat... BUT, I'll take a kitten" and I'm like, "W... T... F... do you THINK a F'N KITTEN IS???"

Anyways, long story short, it was too much of a risk to take her to some shelter or rescue and who knows, she might have been put to sleep at some point? I just couldn't and didn't want to take that risk. The cat is in AZ and here I live in So Cal. I too, technically, was not able to bring a cat home, but I was able to talk my roommate/landlord to make an exception.

I already posted this picture, but here it is again, my knucklehead little girl!!! And MAN, she is VERY MALICIOUS!!!


But yeah brother, I NEVER THOUGHT I would EVER "LOVE A CAT"??? I don't know WHY, but I get a kick out of when you call THEIR NAME, and yes, cat's do KNOW their name just like a dog, but when you call their name it's like 99.99% chance they decide not to listen to you or that 0.01% chance if they had a middle finger, they'd use it 99.99% of the time!!! EXCEPT of course, if they knew it was dinner time, then they are on YOU like flies on shit!!!

Very cool story. Sweet looking kitty. Your brother is looking down smiling on you.

 

I'm doing an electronics project and she walked up on my desk and kept batting the wires around on my desk!!!

 

Cat: yeah so?? Deal with it!

 

EXACTLY what I hear brother!!!

 

That one has you wrapped around her paw, but knowing you..... that ain't difficult

 

Does Phoebe look annoyed? She has resting b*tch face so it’s hard to tell anymore

 

HAHAHA, I have a picture similar to that one.
