Just because we could all use a smile...

which means a kitty pic in The Lounge, right?

This is Elmo, just hangin' out. Not worried about politics or hurricanes or floods or anything other than when is dinner?

1. OMG I'm in love !

2. He is a sweet kitty.

We adopted Elmo and his brother, Stitch, in June from a local county animal shelter. They are both 9 years old and had been surrendered by
their family because of "allergies". Poor boys. The info on them said they got along with dogs--and we have an 11 year old rescue dog who is
very gentle and laid back who likes kitties--so I took a chance and brought them home. Right after I took this shot this morning Elmo reached
out with his paw to see if he could boop Snowy (the dog) as she walked by. Elmo is definitely mischievous. They are all getting along very well.

3. Such a beauty!

Orange boys (like my late Freddie ) are totally the best.

4. Yes, they are. Our beloved Simba used to hang out on this chair.

It's been five years since he crossed the Rainbow Bridge.

Sorry about Freddie.

5. Absolutely gorgeous cat!

Thank you for giving 2 older cats a forever home.💕

10. The animal shelter has a discounted price

For seniors who adopt animals older than 3 years old. It didn't affect my decision, but I thought it was a great idea because at 66 I wasn't ready to commit to kittens and I did want two kitties to be company for each other.

6. Could this be cuter? NO!

Seriously, he goes with the furniture! He looks like he tried to put on lipstick without a mirror. What a face! That look, I get that look here. Usually it is a question like, "Are you going to feed us after this?"

7. He is just too adorable, my dear mnhtnbb!

I love his pose and his expression!

14. THAT CAT THINKS HE IS ALL THAT

I WILL SHOW HIM THE ERROR OF HIS WAYS

[mnhtnbb]

15. LOL

I would tell him he's scheduled for an ass kicking, but he'd probably just walk away!
