Looks just like my one cat Jo, white socks and all.
Very cute.
looks kind of like my Lily, too…
Here’s Jo, he’s no longer around though.
Sorry to hear Jo is no longer with us. I love the pose–hard to tell, is he a tabby, or a lynxpoint siamese like Lily? That is a baby pic of Lily. She is much darker now and more stripey, but still with the bright blue eyes
He was tabby, I don’t have better pics on my pc sadly. He would be the crap out of the neighbourhood cats, he wasn’t small thats for sure. He died in a tree (feline aids), and we found him on the ground below it.[/quote]
My two cats are strictly indoors, have been since they were babies. Sounds like Jo would have been very unhappy to have been kept indoors! It is esp. hard for males. Lily is pretty tiny, about six pounds. She was a foster from the animal control. I got her when she was about 5 weeks old, with major infections. She has a permanent infection in her far sinuses, but the only treatment is surgical and is a bit risky. I think her rough start is why she is so little. When the girls were babies, I lived near a busy highway, and then I lived in the wilderness with foxes, coyotes, lions, bears, etc, and decided to keep them indoors.

Sally. 15 years old and recently diagnosed with bronchitis and arthritis. Had her since she was a pup, family will be lost when she dies because she really has become a member of the family.
Always a very nice pleasant and gentle dog but recently has become funny in her old age ad seems to be demanding that she be treated as a human.
Love her to bits, as strange and moody as she is these days.
(Also just back form hunting in the rain)[/quote]
Had to put Sally down yesterday…
The vet we were going to wanted to keep her on tablets and such but we got a second opinion of another vet we’ve been friendly with for years and we decided it wasn’t fair to keep her around living miserably off the tablets.
Had her for 14 years, older than some of my cousins.
I miss her…

Condolences man. I lost my girl over 2 years ago, and still can’t get another one.
I’ll pass on some words that were given to me: it wont be long before your tears are replaced with smiles when you look back on the good times you had with her.

Pets are always worth posting again.
I’ve never had a cat in my life and can’t wait. Unfortunately our dog Titus is allergic to cats. Funny. “No, we can’t have cats, the dog is allergic.” But he loves them! One of life’s little ironies I guess.
