2. Yes, I was going to say
its National Cat Day at my house 365 days a year. One celebration was last night...it was the run under mommy's feet and when she thinks she's hurt us purr up a storm and get lots of guilt ridden scritches and petting. Doesn't that sound like a real party? :rofl:

7. I've had two Blue Russians
during the last twenty years.

Mr Hobbes was our first, and he was huge- but still looked like yours! He was such a loving cat. He passed on about ten years ago- but last summer I saw this kitten and had to get her. She is much smaller than Hobbes mk. 1, but share many of the same traits of personality.

Ms Hobbes, or Hobgoblins, or Hobbes mk. 2, loves to get in high spots and then casually knock off itmes one at a time. She is the loudest cat I have ever seen. She makes more noise running down the hall than the Lab does.


Yes- named after the cartoon.

8. Hah. My cats love to do the same
And the two of them running? Both sound like elephants. I don't know if my cats have Russian Blue in them (ferals as kittens) but they sure sound like they might....

9. They look like they might.
Ms Hobbes isn't pure. But she sure acts like one.

You should do a bit of reading on them. Great cats.
