Cat photo thread

[Fluffycloudland77]

You've all seen my cat I've bored you to tears so lets see some cute cats.

I'm truly seeing the Christmas cuteness of the little cuddlers, all of them. I want to cuddle Zal quite badly.

Thanks Corygal, Zal was the best snuggler, even put up with toddlers bless him.

Two of mine and photo of a recent "gift"!

This is Dudley who was found under my car bonnet aged 7 weeks. He is now nearly one and a half years old and a huge great hooligan! We have never found out where he came from. Just by chance he chose our car to hide in and he had such a lucky escape that day, as I would usually have been driving nearly 20 miles around the motorway. I also had 2 old cats who have since died so it has been a great comfort to have Dudley around

Hasn't Dudley grown!

justaweeone that 'gift' is really disturbing. (I'm a bit rat fan, but really prefer them with their heads still attached to their bodies ... and alive). I'm so thankful none of mine ever bring me gifts.

Justaweeone is your cat a member of the Mafia? Imagine waking up with that on your pillow!

And hasn't Dudley grown into a handsome chap?

I love the propriertarial paw on his toy.

These are Lily and Tonks, a couple of rescue cats I fostered, they went to a permanent home with a lovely family who had no idea what they were letting themselves in for

Oh nooooo is the mouse headless? I thought it was just an ariel shot, eeeewwwww. My childhood cat once left me a dismembered, still twitching slow worm to discover. One at each entrance to the house, perhaps it's a cat method of warding off evil spirits? I was disgusted fascinated to discover they are composed of four huge muscles, and can still crawl when cut into pieces.

Actually, should that be "Is the mouse body-less" shouldn't it?

Here's another one of mine. This is Marmite (with Stacey in the background who I've talked about upthread). I fostered Marmite and her mother and brother as semi-feral kittens and their not exactly feral, but not particuarly friendly either mum. As not particularly friendly cats are a bugger to find homes for they ended up staying. I've got a similar family of black cats in my bathroom at the moment which will probably end up stuck with me too ...

And the big fluffy tabby and white boy is Hubert. He was left on my doorstep. with a note, by a neighbour, who had bought two staffi puppies, become psychotic and been evicted (I'm guessing that at least one of these facts led to their decision to abandon their cats...)

This is Philomena, also known as Beanie. She's 14 and it looks pretty likely she has mouth cancer which is rather a rubbish end to the year. She's still eating and generally ok though at the moment.
