I love his coloring and markings, especially with the tawny areas. Are his little toes curled because of the catnip, perhaps?

Going into his 16th year and in a cold winter, we do these little things like give him a bed of his own, room service by the heating vent... Mr. Mickey lost his sister about a year ago, and we pamper the shit out of him. He's just being happy!

Here's another happy face a moment later -

He licks soap, loves freshly washed romaine lettuce (greener sections, naturally) and loves to be vacuumed with the soft adapter!

I think I understand the vacuum...probably a nice massage. And I had a cat once who loved asparagus. But SOAP?!!!!
I love cats.

He was adopted from a homeless cat foundation here locally where I live. Was buying fish at a local Petco, and they were there. I had to fill out an application and be approved by 3 people. He was 5 months old at the time. Already fixed and all his shots. He's orange and white, his eye color matches the orange color of his fur. Such a cuddle bug! Perfect friend to my black beauty that I adopted 5 months before him. She was from the shelter. 13 months old, and such a wonderful girl. She's also fixed. They both have no feeling of going outside at all. I encourage people to adopt, there are many fur babies out there, looking for love!! My 7 yr old dog, I adopted from the pound when she was 4 months old. She's a German Wire Haired Terrier mixed with I don't know!!! She's so ugly, she's cute!!! Best dog I've ever had!!!
Adopt your animals people!!! They will give you a love that you've never felt before!!! It's wonderful!!! By the way, I'm married with 3 children, and these beautiful animals give so ugh love, just like your children do! I am blessed, many times over!

I am sooo much agreement with that.

Unless there is some medical reason that you cannot be around fur babies, they are pure love, and it is unconditional, but to give it back.

Blessed be to and your entire family.
