That’s awesome! ... maybe I should get a couple of those fishes for my two cats... especially if they work that good every time!

honestly, they only kick it and play with it when there is fresh catnip on it. otherwise, they dont bother.

Ahh, that’s good to know since those things cost $20 each if I remember right. My cats have got to where they simply lick or eat the catnip and that’s it... no spazzing whatsoever. One of the doesn’t even pay any attention to fresh fish. Weird!

I never post pictures of myself online, but my wife took this when I was sleeping a few weeks ago. I didn't know until 2 days ago.

Nothing better than a nap with one's companion(s) , especially when said companion's / companions'  purr motor is running .

That picture is very soothing. When my dog shoves himself next to me on the sofa it tends to relax me and possibly put me to sleep.

Here is another one from a different day. this time my wife actually woke him up

Our furry friends do like to be touching us when we sleep and they sleep.   Pretty much anytime I lie on the sofa to watch tv in the evening, I'm covered in 2-3 dozing small terriers...

Our dog Teddie would sleep across my wife’s body as the two of them were asleep on the couch. 

Just to make it interesting every so often, I’d lift his sleeping ear and whisper, “Look, cats”.  He’d jump into action, leap off her torso and go nuts at the back sliding door!

Yes indeed... Sad but true!

I remember several years back seeing a documenary from Africa of a wild lioness weaning a baby deer of some sort because it had no mother. She would return to it regularly and take care of it. It seems like that went on for over a month if I remember right. She never harmed it.

....EDIT.... Ok, it was a long time ago. I was wrong about the weaning part, etc.... Here’s the video:

We had to say goodbye to Shasta today. 4 years ago, she was diagnosed with feline lymphoma and had to go on chemotherapy. We knew it would stop working at some point and only expected to get 2 years. She got 4 years of good, quality life, and for that I am very grateful to her veterinarian, and his staff. She enjoyed 18 years of good life.

 

She was a rescued feral, and the outdoors were her preferred place. But she spent a lot of time with me at my hobby table, quietly rearranging parts, and putting cat hair in places where they would only reveal themselves after paint was applied.

 

Everyone in our family is going to miss her.

Sad news to hear Dave but it was the right thing to do. I sometimes think we should treat people the same way

[Classicgas]

I am so sorry Dave. It's like losing a child. My prayers go out to you and your family.

[TonyK]

That is a good looking cat. Happy for you and your cat to enjoy 18 years. Thanks for sharing the nice pictures.

[Earl Marischal]

Sorry for your loss Dave. Been there and know how it feels.

Awe man...real sorry to hear that Dave...  A very beautiful cat indeed!  All of us pet owners know that the day will eventually come and none of us want to think about it. I wish you the best and hope you’ll be filled with memories that will make you smile, and not sadness.

[1972coronet]

Shasta is a beauty queen , @Dave Ambrose! Thank you for being her guardian for all of those years . One day , we shall all meet again .

[StevenGuthmiller]
