I love cats but the ones we have turning up here don't wand to come close. They are all strays. Used to have house cats... Aww. The last one. He came as a stray. He was beautiful. Such a lovely black cat. I called him "Biscuits" as he was hungry and he loves biscuits. Sadly not long after he started to get friendly, he had been battling with something which had crushed his skull. Probably a dog or a badger. Next doors dog was allowed to stray and she killed several cats around the area. So, the cat had to be put down as it also had feline lukemia which is spreading around these parts.

It almost happened a few months ago. Ah well, They'll probably have another litter next year or so.

How come you passed on it?

I have a new kitten coming in tomorrow - it's been a while since the last one and I missed it like hell :)

She got reserved before I could make a final decision. Bit of an expensive breed, so I had to mull it over a bit.

Better luck next time! You know how they say you don't choose them, they choose you...

He'll get it! By the way he looks I'm already convinced he can cure depression, possibly leprosy too...

Thanks! And yeah, that's certainly true. I was there when my parents got their cat. I was sitting indian style on the floor, and him and his brother decided to climb one of my thighs each, and then kind of fell asleep halfway through. So I had to sit perfectly still on the floor with two tiny Sacred Birma kittens perilously balanced and sleeping adorably on my legs.

I'm a stand alone nut.
But I'd be clinically insane without cats.
Love my floof. :heart:

Everyone here knows by now I'm cat nuts! I have been a cat person all my life and had many cats that lived very long lives.

I only have feral cats now. We feed them, along with neighborhood cats who come by. Our last cat, C.C., passed away two years ago at the approximate age of 15. I'm not ready for another indoor kitty just yet.

I’m just recently cat nuts again. I tried to put them out of my mind since my boyfriend was allergic and I thought I would never have one for a pet again. Now our kitty is the centre of our universe.
