This also happened a little while ago. Chauncey loves to climb me when I'm sitting around as you already know. Then she finds her way to the edge of the couch. She's not smart enough to not jump, so I have to pull her off and put her back on the floor.
I only find that entertaining for so long though. As soon as I put her back on the floor she starts climbing again. When I get sick of it, I sit with my feet in so that she can't climb anymore.
...but she got even more bold this time.
I'm still shocked ?. That's one determined little turd.

So, I am not a superstitious person.
Below is a picture of my childhood cat Tiger. Tiger was with me for 23 years. Towards the end he had complete kidney failure and the saline injections and medical treatments were just not working anymore. His quality of life was horrible, nothing I did was helping anymore. So I made probably one of the hardest decisions to put him to sleep. I still don't know if it was the right time.
That was exactly 11 years ago today.
This morning while getting ready to go to work, I noticed my cats and dog were very interested in the patio door. I found this little girl outside the patio door, cramming herself inside the screen door and against the glass. She was terrified and looking for some safe place to stay. She was trying to fit through an inch wide gap in the door. She's young, under-fed, but mostly clean, her fur isn't matted. And she is absolutely terrified, but she is handleable. You can hold her and put her in your lap. If she can't find anywhere else to hide she tries to hide between my legs.
I'm trying to find out if she's lost, or abandoned. Next step is to take her to the vet to check for a chip and basic health. If no-one claims her, and it looks like my cats are warming up to her, I will probably adopt her.
She's a long haired domestic, very fluffy tail, but very small, maybe 3-4 lbs at most. Young, and she has scratch above her eye. I don't feel the tell tail signs of fleas, so I think we are good there. but its hard to get a look at her ears right now to see if she has mites or something like that.

23 years is absolutely it man. We just let one of ours go, 20 years as well but has had kidney disease for 10 years. Through strict diet and meds we kept her going so much longer than expected.
It's a fine line between being selfish and their suffering. You did the right thing as did we. We noticed severe mental determination in days.

Tiger was mentally sharp as ever. His behavior didn’t change at all, he was still the same loving cuddly cat he always was, just slept a lot more as he aged. He was pretty much active and young till right around 18 or so. He was blessed with grate health for the majority of his life.
I’m at the vet now with Shadow as ive decided to call her for basic health. They won’t do a Full checkup like FIV unless I make a follow up appointment.
but no chip. So still no owner
Cant wait to get them into the groomer this weekend....
Damn Covid delays.
Siblings, can’t you tell?
Man, the contrast of the white whiskers and the darker fur is just so cool looking.
Well it finally happened, knew it was going to be sooner or later.....fish tank for the kids
Had to add a little tinfoil stylings to it

New kitten Oscar, we found an abandoned litter next to my friends garage 2 had died Oscar was unresponsive other than loud cries when you moved him, and 3 semi health kittens, we found someone with a couple mom cats that knew how to nurse them and Oscar came back from the dead, after about a month when he was ready we decided to give Oscar a new home
And of course his big brother in the background ready to fuck Oscar up when he gets out of line, Oscar is going to have to put some size on if he wants to hang around here Loki is 17lbs last I checked
I've never actually had a true kitten. All of mine are adoptions are usually nearing maturity or a few years old already.
Simon was 1-3 years old, Minx was a few years old, Little one was probably about 9months to a year....etc.
Shadow is actually the youngest cat I've had with me so far.

We can’t eat anything without this happening. The only things she won’t eat so far are eggs covered in hot sauce. She even eats green beans.
So. Lost pet post has been out two days and the flyers we plastered all around. Not one person has stepped forward yet.
this gives me the poor feeling that Someone just dumped Shadow. And that is a terrible thought.
she is slightly warming up now. She still hides a ton but sometimes she speaks up when I move around, asking for attention.
Little One also got too close accidentally this morning. Wasn’t even looking for her and Shadow jumped up at him hissing. He was startled and darted away.
she’s hiding in the bedroom for now and I may just close the door and let her explore the room while I’m at work.
