1. If you insist...

Teddy and Milo and DU.

[ET Awful]

2. Is Milo the one hiding behind the computer? :)

Hehehehe.

Yay for kitties!

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

5. Yes. A couple more pictures of my boyz:

Milo and one of his favorite playthings.



Teddy in a more formal setting. He is thinking about tearing out my spleen.

[yellowdogintexas]

11. nice bunch of cats, and a great cat palace, too. nt

[AirmensMom]

17. Thanks.

:loveya:

That was our creation. :blush:

[Fridays Child]

21. What pampered little lovelies your babies are.

And I just love their fancy digs! What kind of kitties are Sabrina and Satchmo? They're gorgeous!

[AirmensMom]

24. Why, thank you, Fridays Child!

Satchmo and Sabrina are Abyssinians. Sabrina is Satchmo's mother. They are a little wild looking, aren't they? They're very sweet kitties. :loveya:

Here are some other shots of them ...

[Fridays Child]

31. They are just straight up beautiful, luxurious, elegant.

Prize-winning, I'd dare say.

[AirmensMom]

34. Awww, thanks.

And not a bit spoiled. :blush:

They did come from prize-winning stock, but we don't show them. Why do we need some kitty judge to tell us they're special? Sabrina does have some "short-comings" ... short tail, sort legs, short body. She was a little short-changed, as the breeder said. But we love her.
:loveya:

7. Asking for permission.

Back when we could have larger signatures, there was a person who had a signature line with three kitty pictures in a row. I thought this was such a cool looking signature line. I can't remember for the life of me who it was, but I would like to make a sort of collage like that of my three for the kitty picture threads.

To whoever that was:
Can I have permission to copy you?

[yellowdogintexas]

13. I think that is Lorien, and there are a lot of her posts in Pets Forum

currently.

Oberon, Puck and Miro are the three cats

[bettyellen]

15. you mean Catwoman? Here, go ask her... she's nice!

[AirmensMom]

18. I want to do that, too.

But with four kitties. :loveya:

[Jamastiene]

42. It looks so cool, doesn't it?

Maybe we could make it a kitty picture club of some sort or another forum. I love the way it looks. I'm working on finding the best pictures of my cats to make as my avatar or my sig line. I just hope when I do ask for the permission, I get it. Otherwise, I'll probably go with a film reel look if possible. I'm just trying to come up with a way to be able to post in the cat picture threads easier and better for bandwidth, maybe adding a link to the larger picture size in case anyone wants to see the bigger version of the picture. :hi: :loveya:

8. here are mine

Barney and Morrison


Morrison and his big tummy!!


Our 21-year-old cat, Daniel..My boyfriend has had her since he was 13. He thought she was a boy and gave her the boy name.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

9. Morrison is...substantial.

I want to rub that big fuzzy tummy.

[AirmensMom]

12. Aaaaaahahahaha! "Substantial!"

I like that. :rofl:

[Roon]

23. He's WONDERFUL!

He's a special needs kitty.

[AirmensMom]

37. Well, he's pretty cute!

I just thought "substantial" was such a charmingly delicate way of describing his, er, girth. ;)

[yellowdogintexas]

10. Quinn & Althea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[yellowdogintexas]

14. Oldies but goodies for me, as well:

Lewis, posing:


CatZilla, pretending he is in a cave:


Clark and the Vampire Fang of Death:



I'm thiiiiissss biiigg!



The Goofersons:

[AirmensMom]

19. I see you have a "nursery" going on your bed, too!

That's what we call it when they all end up there. Great kitties! :loveya:

[yellowdogintexas]

27. Bed full of cats, actually. Good thing they allow me to share it

with them.

To think I actually thought I bought that waterbed for myself. Every cat I have had since I bought it has promptly claimed it

[AirmensMom]

32. And your point is .... ?

From Garrison Keillor ....

Why do you make the sofa your nest?
I thought I was welcome, after all I'm a guest!
Halleluiah, I'm a cat! Halleluiah, cat am I!
Halleluiah, pass the sardines. I think it's lunch time!

:loveya:

We have a king-sized bed and there's never a place for us to sleep. :shrug:

[yellowdogintexas]

33. exactly. It is THEIR waterbed, they just let us use it for xtra warmth

no contest there.

and Garrison has it right, as usual.

My personal favorite is "Cat Town RAces"

[AirmensMom]

36. I don't know that one!

How can this be? Is there ANOTHER collection, besides Songs of the Cat?

[yellowdogintexas]

40. It has never been put on a collection as far as I know. I just

heard it on the show back in the early/middle 1980's, to the tune of Camptown Races of course


The cats in our house sing this song,
Meow , meow
Cat town races all night long,
meow meow meow meow


Gonna run all night
gonna sleep all day

and I can't remember any of the rest, except somewhere in there is a line about his(Garrison's) feet being the finish line.

It is very cute.

[Fridays Child]

16. I can't get my new feral babies to come out of the bedroom.

So, I thought I'd better just go up there and get some pics. They're always happy to have visitors and they like the dogs, too. In fact Demmy (top right) absolutely adores my shepherd/chow mix, Honey. She insists on curling up with her every night. But my other two cats have been less than hospitable--the little beeyotches. Anyway, Demmy and DiDi seem perfectly happy to live in the bedroom, for now, and that's fine with me. They're sisters, about five months old.

[AirmensMom]

20. Awwwww....

they're sweet! :loveya:

[yellowdogintexas]

26. looks a lot like my sister's back porch: see inside:

[AirmensMom]

28. Look at all the kitties!

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

Boy, someone with dial-up is going to hate us!

[yellowdogintexas]

29. I suspect the dial up folks hate every Gratuitous Friday Kitty Thread

I would if I still had dial up.

by the way, those are farm cats. The fact that they had so many black ones all at the same time was just friggin hilarious. My other sister and I were out there just cracking up.

Four of them sat outside the storm door and stared at us while we were eating dinner that night. We had a cousins party and those cats wanted to be cousins too.

[AirmensMom]

30. I had dial-up while my cable was out.

I just got my cable back this afternoon. Boy, the dial-up was annoying! I wanted to buy music from iTunes and couldn't even listen to a clip without it buffering about 2 measures before it went to get more. Gave up on that pretty fast!

Well, this DOES say it's a Gratuitous Friday Kitty Thread, so that should be fair warning ... bring it up, go take your shower, and come back to look at the pics. ;)

[Fridays Child]

39. A bevy of black beauties...

...with some calico cuties, for color. :loveya:

[meti57b]

22. One of mine .....

[AirmensMom]

25. Oh, my, what a cutie!

And look at those eyes!

:loveya:

[catzies]

35. My twin tuxedo boys, Mogli and Jake!

[AirmensMom]

38. Don't kill me with cuteness!

:loveya:

[kid a]

41. where's that KITTY?
