Kitty and Dog Thread, Show Me What You Got, other critters welcome too

This is Georgeina (aka Georgie Porgie). This pic doesn't do her cuteness justice. She is 7 years ok, but acts just like a kitten. She doesn't meow; she rings like a telephone. She chases anything that moves and has never, ever been in a bad mood.

Georgie is beautiful!

Everybody has such beautiful kitties! Of course are there any other kind?! I have 10. Here are a few

I love the group on the lawn.

Those are the most gorgeous cats I've ever seen!

Reminds me of Shiloh randomly attacking the girls and getting in a play fight. Apparently he needs a brother. He's twice the size of Tiger, lol.

Last winter he was really fluffy.

Shiloh in September.

30 percent of the photos I take of him seem to include a glowing aura...

Little sister. The rest of the cats in their litters were white. So 25 percent of the kits Snowbelle gives birth to are his coloring.

Fashionable boi

Are they ragdolls? These are the type of cats I'm used to keeping. Yours are beautiful.

It certainly is! Thanks @oldhenlikesdogs great idea

Thanks to you too, you were my partner in crime.

That is cool! I've never heard that term before.

My oldest son had a Persian for years and that cat's color was a "shaded silver"...kind of the opposite of yours. His cat's fur was dark at the base and got progressively lighter as it went to the tip.

Might have been a smoke? I used to obsess over Persian and their coat colors years ago.

I just saw a mug that said "one cat short of crazy" . . . I don't know how many that would be, but I think I'm over the limit there.

We have . . . several. Some were dubbed "barnacles" because if you stop moving, they settle on you. Usually, it's on your lap, but with Rumble, any horizontal (or nearly horizontal) body part will do:

The tuxedo in those pics is Oreo. She's the matriarch, and the law-giver. The black cat is Tiger's brother Squeaky. Squeaky (aka "Toothless") has an ongoing problem with two of the barnacles (Jumpy and Frisky). Whenever there are sounds of cat conflict, Oreo comes running into the room and breaks up the fight. Nobody argues with the Scimitars of Death!

Chubs is our "snoopervisor."

This was taken after Florence. The roof over this porch was destroyed, there is water well up into the back yard and debris everywhere, you can see the improvised clothesline that I put up because we had no power - Chubs looks like, "Geez! I take my eyes off you guys for a few minutes and this happens!"

Bookend kitties.

Heck yeah!

I love cats but I run into too many that aren't that "enthusiastic" about them. It's a joy to find other like-minded folks. Almost makes me feel normal

I can't put my hands on a photo of DS's old cat (they're buried in boxes in the basement) but this is very much like his Mario:

DS was only about 9 when we got Mario and they were best friends until his passing. I had told my son he could name his new kitten and because of the "M" shaped mark on the kitten's forehead, DS wanted to name him Murderer. We compromised with the name Mario

DS used to tease his little brother and say Mario was his real little brother. Used to drive youngest son bonkers.

Mario was a one-guy cat, it was special to see.

That's exactly the color my female Persian Sassy was, I believe it's called blue smoke cameo. I loved my Persians. The only downside was the brushing and the matts.

I say I don't like kitties, my husband does too. Apparently we are closet cat people. I bet there's plenty of other people like us that love kitties on the sly.
