Awww!
Little pussycat foot-prints in the snow!
Cold paws.
Muriel, who insists on sleeping on top of the fridge/freezer......
You have a cat that sleeps on the refrigerator? Does she stay up there all the time? I have one that lives on mine. Was wondering if other cats did this or not.
Yep, most of the time (in winter, that is....in summer, we have to move her little bed into the greenhouse).
It doesn't half make you jump when you go to the fridge first thing in the morning, half asleep, and as you are taking out a carton of juice, a paw bats you on the top of the head.
I hear ya. I have a cat rescued from Hurricane Katrina. I thought maybe she had gotten stranded on a high place and now just feels comfortable above everyone. Maybe not though.
Hello, Ellpus!
That's a pretty relaxed & comfortable tabby you've got there! How old is Muriel? She looks like she's been snoozing on the fridge for years!
Muriel is about three, we think.
She wandered into my wife's school one day, all skin and bone and covered in fleas (so we found out later).
She made her way into my wife's office, jumped up on a chair and curled up to have a nap.
Someone went out and got some cat food, which she devoured, and posters were put up around the area in the hope of finding the owner, but to no avail.
She must have known that our old cat had just passed away, and thought she'd grab the opportunity of a lifetime of spoiling.
After a thorough de-lousing, a good bath and several hundred bowls of food later, she is pretty content, methinks.
She also thinks that our dog is it's mother!
<sigh>
I love those
lost cat finds happy home stories, Ellpus!
And I have a theory that they know
precisely who to target! Your wife must have that special
look about her, which a lost cat can instantly recognise!
And hey, you've had the good fortune to have Muriel join your household! What a stroke of luck!
He (or she) is still growing into those big ears!

I have four cats ... two kittens and two older cats ...
this is one of the kittens, Loki:
Rhea, Loki's sister:
Luna, the runt of the litter at 14lbs:
Rajah, Luna's 25lb brother:
Xaela, all four are beautiful and so different!
Here's another one of Nisse:
And this is Mysan who wants to be left alone :-)
Xaela - your black and white cats look like mine! But they're bigger and even more fuzzy. What beauties!
Rajah is a riot! his expression is just priceless.
by the way, welcome on board, xaela.
Xaela,
What beauties you have! Rajah is an absolute hoot! I can just imagine he's the type of cat that likes to play practical jokes?
Thank you all ...
Rajah and the kittens are definately the more amusing ones ... Luna just likes to be pretty .. she's very proper most the time .. but they all make life a little more enjoyable ...
I love that picture of Nisse .. the kittens sleep like Mysan is laying .. I think if the older cats tried that, they'd choke on their fur
here is a big kitty picture I took at the zoo-
couldnt get past the chain fence though.
