This is a thread in which I post a picture of my cat Oz (taken today)

[Lex]

She was lounging in a spot of sunshine on the bed. She's 13 years old.




Post your kitteh's picture too!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

1. My dear Lex!

Well, since I don't have any cats, I have no cat pics!

But I love your kitty!

She knows where the good spots are...

Very pretty kitteh!

:hi:

[Lex]

3. Why thanks, C_P.

She is a sweet girl.

[GreenPartyVoter]

2. What a cutie!

[Lex]

4. She is still very kitten-like

even in her 'senior' years!

[Richard Steele]

5. 13 years old? Wow, looking good Ms. Oz!

Here's Sweetie's most favorite recent pic of our Yo-Yo:



She's 9 years and fifteen pounds worth of fuzzy feral MainCoon LoveyCat!

[Lex]

8. wow! now that's a cat!

Yo-Yo seems to be yelling "Rock n' Rolllllll!"

:toast:

[Richard Steele]

25. Yo-Yo never yells.

She yawns, and we primate-folk hop to attention to serve her!

And we're happy to do it, knowhutImean?

[ThomCat]

20. Gotta love maine coons!

That is an awesome looking cat! :)

[Richard Steele]

22. She's a perfect example of Mendel's theory of dominant/recessive gene combinations.

Back in 98-99, I lived at a big 96-room CRACK HOUSE over in Raleigh...

Her father was a 20-pound MONSTER of a MainCoon tabby cat; smarter than
most people and twice as strong. I once saw him knock another tomcat
rolling 20 feet with a casual backhand.

And he spent his days teaching the other strays how to attain the "good life"
by sucking up to us residents. Why bother digging through the dumpster
when a few moments of rubbing against our legs would result in fresh treats
straight from our refrigerators?

He was the LEADER of the local strays- so much that I called the shorthaired tabby
who followed him most closely "Protege".

Yo-Yo's mum was a tiny, 7-pound black cat who had been taken in by a person
who I'll thank you to ask me no questions about. EVER.

She ran away, so we thought...but then showed up 3 months later with four
tabby kittens trailing behind. 3 sleek shorthaired tabbys in a row, ass-to-nose,
and a fluffy tabbby female hanging back a few yards.

Well, long story short, the asshholes at the end of the complex got bored one night,
so they loaded their guns, put out some cat food, and then shot all the parking-lot
cats who came to eat it. Shotguns and pistols at close range, against cats who had
been better residents than they ever where.

Yo-Yo's dad, all his followers, his PROTOGÉ, Yo-Yo's 3 brothers...
all dead. Only Yo-Yo survived.

Her natural distrust of primates served her well that night. She always
stayed well away from most people. Even when her brothers were taking
food out of my hand, she would grab a slice of salami and run under
the nearest car to eat it.

Smart girl, that Yo-Yo. Smarter than her siblings, and smarter than the
assholes who killed them, that's for sure!

The assholes who killed them- Well, I left that area and began cohabitating
with my Sweetie about a week after they killed all the kittehs...

But I've heard tell that they all met some very different and untimely ENDS
in the 12 months after I left.
Lots of people have told me lots of stuff about how they died-
crazy, unbelievable shit.

Personally, I don't believe a WORD of it.

[Left Brain]

37. That pic of Yo-Yo

makes me miss our cat Mau-Mau, also a Maine Coon. She was a skinny, scrappy little girl, though. She loved to sleep in trees.

Yo-Yo-Ma is one big kitty at 15 lbs! Pretty baby!

[zingaro]

40. aww she looks just like my old boy

We had to put him down two years and two days ago.

Not that I would be counting or anything.

She is beautiful. Kiss her head for me once, would you?

[SPKrazy]

6. no kitteh

very cute though :hi:

[Lex]

9. Thank you SPK.

You = teh awesum

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

7. Here is my splendiferous and beauteastic kitteh Pixie:

Oz is loverly, such nice shiny fur. :loveya:

[Lex]

10. perfect name!

:hi:

[ThomCat]

19. That is a fantastic picture!

And, of course, I have to think your cat is wonderful because she shared a name with my very first cat ever. :loveya:

[Left Brain]

36. Oh Hai, Pixie!

Do you has cheezburger?




What a wonderful cat!

[sakabatou]

11. Yoruichi (Yo-yo)

[Lex]

14. those green eyes are something!

I lurve calico kittehs :thumbsup:

[DS1]

12. my big fucker

Minou

[Lex]

13. "where ever he wants"

answering the question, where does Minou sit/sleep/lounge around?

Looks very serious in that picture. :hi:

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

15. He's enormous!

A catopotamus. A catstodon. A catosaurus. Seriously, he's HUGH!!111

[MrMickeysMom]

17. In fact.... I pitty the kitty that fucks with him!

Oooof!

[Kat45]

26. Whoa! He's huge.

Not just big, but tall. And he looks solid (rather than fat). That's quite a cat you've go there, a handsome guy. Looks like he's got a normal sized kitty head on an oversized body.

[_testify_]

38. Dude! I must have adopted his brother!

My cat looks just like him!

[riverdeep]

45. Is this photoshopped?

Seriously, umm, like, whoa. That's like a linebacker in feline form.

[DS1]

47. nope, fresh out the camera

he's got some wild in him.

[MrMickeysMom]

16. What a pretty kitty... Here's my elder

Scoobie, 17 and a half years old. Mr. Mickey's arch enemy. The girl can take care of herself when necessary, which is often.

[ironflange]

27. Wow, she's a dead ringer for my Cleo

Sorry, this is the only pic I have handy. Cleo is now the queen of the house. She's dumb, but very strong and fast, and woe betide any neighborhood cat she catches in our yard. It's happened, orange fur was everywhere.

Might as well show the other two:


Amber.


Pips. They both know who the boss is.

[MrMickeysMom]

28. Cleo IS a dead ringer... down to the "tiny paws"...

However, 1/4th of Scoobie's tail was lopped off for some unknown reason. Hey, she is ripped under that t-shirt, I'll bet!

[I Have A Dream]

32. That's one scary look that she's giving!

:scared:

[MrMickeysMom]

33. LOL... "trust, but verify"! n/t

[riverdeep]

46. Very non-chanlant look. Cool. n/t

[BuddhaGirl]

18. not my cat...

this is my MIL's cat Ember...he is a big lovemuffin who will follow you around all day and flop on his back for belly rubs whenever you crouch down to pet him :-) :

[ThomCat]

21. Whoa! What a mountain of lovable fluff!

:loveya:

[Skittles]

23. my bf's kitty Kenai

she is suave - I want to rename her Ms.Scorpio

[Maestro]

43. Now that is a debonair look!

Yep she is Ms. Suave!

[Kat45]

24. Awwww! What an adorable kitty!

She looks like she's closer to kittenhood, hard to believe she's 13.

[alphafemale]

29. Isis at Christmas.

Curiosity. "What could it be?"





She was not impressed.

[Maestro]

Here are my two strays that adopted my family.

Patches


Gracie


Gracie is the ball of energy

[DeepBlueC]

41. those are great pictures

Why is it that whenever I pull out a camera the cats want to come up and sniff it?

[Maestro]

42. Thanks Jeme.

They certainly sniff my camera as well, but I try to find them in one of those unsuspecting moments or when their attention is on something else.

[devilgrrl]

39. He's cute. Can I have him?

;-)

[japple]

44. Oz would fit in with my group. No kitteh diversity in

this household:
