[iscooterliberally]

1. So cute!

Sorry, but some of my cats have dogs.

[RKP5637]

5. LOL!!! My cat had a pet dog too!

[eppur_se_muova]

30. Or as cats call them, "chew toys". nt

[Louisiana1976]

2. How adorable. I love cats--I currently have a beautiful tortoiseshell named Tiger Lily.

She's huge--she's the biggest female cat I've ever seen. If it weren't for the fact that she's short-haired I'd think she has some Maine Coon in her.

[LadyHawkAZ]

3. I appreciate this appreciation thread!

[Brigid]

4. We are Siamese if you please . . .

6. I love my kitties like children.

Sadly, today they're mad at me because I treated them for ear mites. But they'll get over it after a nice nap.

8. Hugs...

12. Now that is kitty love!

So cute. Our family had a couple cats (siblings, I might add), and we took in a stray cat after a irresponsible neighbor ran off and left him. He loved our cats, but our cats didn't want anything to do with him. George is what I named him. Anyway, there were many times when George would sneak up on our other cats while they were asleep and put his arm around him and slept peacefully. We've got some pics like these. Hell, we have a cat album of nothing but cats doing what comes naturally: mischief!

31. Love 'em!

Especially Spock and the black kitteh. Mine thinks he's the king of the roost, but his big sister knows the real deal!

[Aerows]

9. My "helper" that investigates everything I do in the garden

[shenmue]

10. Extra squee alert!

[littlemissmartypants]

14. Beautiful. Thanks. nt

[Skidmore]

15. I appreciate cats from afar because

I'm very allergic to them.

[navarth]

17. My condolences.

I grieve for you, I really do. For my part, loving and hugging kitty cats is one of the sweetest things in life. My wife says she couldn't imagine life without cats. I concur. So sorry you can't do it, it's really tragic.

[neffernin]

21. The answer for my wife was a chihuaha

The poor little thing is so small most kids thinks she is a puppy and she's nearly 10 now. The cats stopped running when she went after them because most of them are bigger than she is.

[navarth]

16. adorableness overload!!!

By mere coincidence, I just snarfled the bellies of my two boys before I came back to this machine to check my work.

Extra credit: I was just next door drinking some wine on the back deck with my neighbors and Alvin the squirrel came to visit. He came really close and I swear to godz squirrels are the biggest competitors for kitties and puppies in the cuteness olympics. Alvin is So Fucking Adorable. I'm going to get that boy to let me pet him someday. I swear I will.

18. I just got one to protect the house from other varmints.

It's working out pretty good.

[Rex]

20. Funny, no matter what kind of cat it is - they always stick their tale up in the air

when elated! That is one happy cat!

[unionthug777]

50. another Bob the Cat, and a happy tale

Theirs is a partnership built on mutual trust and great loyalty. Bob has helped James
fight addiction and earn money. Bob is a cat. And a shining example of how pets bring
great benefit to homeless and marginalized people.

Thanks!

[airplaneman]

41. Finally a thread I can really get behind! n/t.

[Gumboot]

43. Here's something we need to support

I hope cat-loving DUers will take a few minutes to watch this terrific film:

The Paw Project

About the cruel practice of de-clawing. It really opened my eyes.



In loving memory of Niemitz 1994-2011. Miss you, old fella...

[KamaAina]

47. Declawing (actually amputation) is outlawed in West Hollywood, CA.

Maybe Susan Boyle's kitteh could cover it.

[Warren DeMontague]

55. No. No, no, no.
