All of my cats are a rescue of some kind.

One, Tomias, adopted us

When my cat was first introduced to the big outdoors, he used to run and try to catch big birds flying high that were far out of his reach. :D

Alterity,

All of my cats were rescues of one kind or another, too. Many of them went on to live very long lives, including some of our feral cats.

^ Aww I wish I had a home with a barn that I could fill with feral kitties. My last cat made it to 20, I was heartbroken when he died. :heart:

Some of past cats came from shelters but everyone else were abandoned, strays, or feral born. We had one that made 20.

If I had the funds I would entirely be a crazy cat lady...though my current 'personal' cat wouldn't like that, he get REALLY jealous.

Mine thinks he's a dog

(He comes when I call, sits on command, begs at the table, joins the other dogs at dinner time, eats dog treats, etc)

All of my cats like being tapped on the butt. (not their butt HOLE, the space just above their tail). It's cute.

Two of my cats drink water from the faucet in the bathtub.

One of my cats plays fetch. He also likes belly rubs and he will grab your hands and kick you with his back legs when he's being playful.

One of my cats will sit on top of me while I'm sleeping and lick my face if they need to be fed.

One of my cats opens my drawers and sleeps in them.

Yes, that is a total of six cats by the way... three of them aren't technically ours but that's a long story.

The other day my older cat, Lucky, was sitting on my desk. Suddenly I sneezed loudly, and it made her leap a couple of feet off the desk and into an open drawer in the filing cabinet next to the desk.

Some people say cats startle too easily, but I like to think they just have lightening-quick reflexes. :)

She is eating passionately so I don't think she is in much pain. But the vet said that she hadn't recovered fully yet. Will take her to the vet again on Wednesday. :(

komamanga,

Does your cat have stomatitis? Two of my cats had a severe case of it.


I don't know... The vet said that she had inflammation and her teeth were rotten. I wouldn't have realized it though if I hadn't found one of her tooth in her food bowl because she kept on eating as usual.

Still eating is a very good indication she'll be getting there with her recovery. All the best of luck on Wednesday for the appointment
