looks just like my first kitten (not the first cat I ever met, but the first who ever owned me). That must have been...well over 50 years ago.

I found him really interesting and just cool. Now have a 6 year old that is just as cool, and seems better adjusted than me.

I still like dogs, but dogs are not acrobats, are noisy, can't take care of themselves when home bound, require leash walking in city, etc.

Nice/cute photos.

so I only remember always loving kitties. At one point when I was growing up we had about seven indoor/outdoor kitties (all stray rescues) and fed a couple feral strays.

I currently have three and I've realized that is our minimum. We had two for awhile and it just wasn't enough fur and purr for us.
