This cat looks a little crazy!

The one on top is our crazy kitty. The other is the “love of my life” and quite a contender for RBF contests worldwide (we had to put her to sleep in February.

My neighbor’s cat Jax who knows how to turn on the RO for a drink and who I play with whenever I visit.

Our beautiful boy Weasley who we lost to kidney disease a few years ago. I miss him every single day. DH won’t have another cat and our DIL is highly allergic to them so I guess I’ll just :heart: all of your lovely kitties.

This is my last cat/baby, 16 years old
she just got diagnosed with diabetes and I appreciated reading how others have been dealing with that. She has been really easy about her shots, in fact I often think she reminds me about them, if I get distracted. I lost her sister 3 years ago, which broke my heart.

Interesting markings on your “crazy kitty”; is there a name for them?

They are both bengals. The crazy one is called a marble pattern. The other is a more traditional bengal.

As soon as we turned on our heat this year our cat started sitting on her favorite grate.

Our cats are pissed. Nothing is coming out of the floor vents since we installed the minisplit in their favorite room! :laughing:

An example:

“This is Just to Say”

I have eaten
the eggs
that were
on the counter

which
you were probably
saving
for breakfast.

They weren’t moist or savory
like the seafood variety of Friskies
but I was bored.

My favorite artistic cat is Henri, le Chat Noir, a black and white feline who deadpans his existential observations in French (with subtitles). Tonight is Halloween and Henri is not a fan:

For people looking for something mindless yet curiously satisfying to distract yourself today , I recommend Find The Cat. It’s a picture search app where you just find and click on cats in a variety of sketches. The cats are cute and the pictures fun. There are ads between screens, so good to play during commercials and let the ads run in between. Better to play on a tablet or very large phone.

Here is part of my cat collection.

And here’s a search screen.

Just found this thread and love it! The poems rewritten by cats - hysterical (McSweeny’s doesn’t disappoint). Henri - so good lol.

I downloaded the app. It is incredibly addictive and soothing at the same time. Thanks for the suggestion!
