    My Emilee and Laelah...
    girls-1.jpg

    Emilee with her grump face on, probably because I was taking her picture instead of petting her. She LOVES me and sleeps in my arms on her back (like a human infant), every day.

    Laelah, in her favorite place to spend her nights waiting for my fiance to get home. Laelah is his shadow.

    They're 4 year old siblings from the same litter. Their mom was part Maine Coon, so they have some of the traits. Emilee has huge feet and she gets these big wings of hair off the sides of her head at different times, depending on if she has her winter coat or her summer coat. Laelah has very soft fur and a tail that she moves like a snake. They both have long fur between the pads of their feet.

    Aw your cats are beautiful, my profile picture is my little Cleo cat, she's an egyptian mau and the most loving cat I've ever met, if I stay still for more than 30 seconds she will be curled up on me in some position, and she is terrified of other cats, if she sees one she wets herself, so I call her a little mouse :-)

    And this is the the crabby old lady--she was a crabby old lady even when she was a kitten--that I had from the time I was 12 years old until I was nearly 31 years old. Her name was Baby. She was just shy of turning 19 years when she passed away.

    She disliked everyone except me, my mom, and any unconcious human available to sleep on. <--she was always skinny, and I assume she was syphoning body heat from the sleeping victim. Occassionally, she'd go a little senile and suddenly decide my fiance was okay to cuddle with, even if he was concious, but that didn't usually last too long.

    She loved Doritos--I maintain that the chip's preservatives, along with her firey hate for most of the world, is what kept her going for 19 years. She also slept under the covers with just her head out. If I were asleep and she wanted under the covers, she'd bite me in the nose or chin until I woke enough to let her in. Oh, and she was not above putting her dirty foot in someone's glass of milk and using it like a sponge to drink from if her head was too big to fit in the glass and the milk owner wasn't looking My other cats still haven't figured out the foot trick. It took Baby, as a kitten, all of three minutes of wanting something she couldn't reach to sort that out. She was a smart old woman.

    Aaawww, love cats. I couldn't skip this thread, I haven't had a cat since Tabby died in 2008.

    I'd had her since I was 5, we got her in 1987 and she died age 21. It was really sad as she went downhill rapidly.

    Anyway I love this photo, she had been having a few problems and had gone off to the vets for a few tests, we didn't realise they were going to shave her belly but we found out when she lay like this;


    401564432.jpg


    She used to eat so much, she was always slightly overweight, she had a standard diet but would beg at the table like a dog, it was really quite cute. If she could she would have eaten chips, crisps, noodles and cheese but apart from the odd curiosity try with foods she was fed normally.

    I still miss her and even cry, I think it was because she had lived through my early years, my teens and my twenties. I plan to have cats again when I have my own place although I doubt I'll have kittens again as I would prefer to go for older rescue cats.

    I love cats :) I have three- Willow, Cricket and Snowy. Snowy is technically a stray, as he hasn't let me bring him inside yet. But, I always make sure he has food and water and I made a bed for him outside which he sleeps in, every day. So, I consider him mine.
    Cricket is 6 years old, Willow is 3 and Snowy looks to be around 8-10 months old.
    My much loved cat, Rueben, whom I brought home to my parents' house when I was 16, died late last year. he was almost 21.

    Beautiful cats!

    My guy is my profile pic. His name is Seti. The Egyptian god of chaos & mischief was named "Set," so I thought "Seti" was appropriate. He's also named for the S.E.T.I. program, Search for ExtraTerrestrial Intelligence. As a superior Cat life form I feel like he's always searching (unsuccessfully) for signs of intelligence in humans.

    His mother was a stray dumped out by my parents' house. They took her in and a few weeks later we had three beautiful kittens. I think Seti's dad must've been a Maine Coon because he has all the traits.
