This is an old pic of one regal fella that kept me company for 15 years he passed last fall still crosses my mind every once and a while. His brother Cliff only made it to 9 years.

Barba Papa. RIP.

This is Luci, my little listening companion. She joined us 16 years ago as a rescue when she found our front door after being dumped in the neighborhood.

She won't climb up on the audio gear and she doesn't use the speakers for scratching posts thankfully. She will sit in front of the MC501 monoblocks as if they produce some warmth. She much prefers laying right in front of the fireplace but ya gotta do what ya gotta do, right?

But she does like music! When the music starts she plops down on my lap, right in the audio sweet spot and listens.

Here she is, giving me the "Turn On The Music" look.

My two critters. The Tux is Boots, the Tabby is Otto. First picture was late 2010, Boots is 3 years, Otto is a few months.
I still have them, their relationship is a bit more rocky these days but they get along most times, there's still a large size difference between them, and Boots is big Cat and a bit of a bully so there is some friction.

Well, it's not cats but it's still worthy of a good laugh,

After reading this thread, I went into the bedroom and saw Abby the Tabby posing:

It appears you don’t think cats should be allowed out, that indoor activities satisfy their curiosity, and they are fine with staring out windows , unable to discover. Now , if one lives on a busy street, I can see the concern . I have owned many cats ( my daughter has 4 , had others previous) , if cats want to go out, they should be granted that wish. Some are fine indoors with no desire to venture . I have one like that and I’m ok with it. They take care of themselves .

Again, you post what you see in front of you. There is journalism that reports that indoor cats live longer and healthier lives. There is journalism that cats kill a lot of birds.

Somehow, I don't think those cats would fit into any place I have lived comfortably. Also, I get the feeling that I would see the inside of at least one of them.

My late Flame Point Siamese, he was only a couple years old here, he lived to be around 17 and had to be put down in 2014. He was a very smart Cat, and very people friendly, he also shed like mad!
