Cats!!!

Who loves Cats here? Wifey and I have three, each unique with their own personalities.

Lets see some pics...

The first picture is Bongo, full name being Bongo Marley. Wifey and I went with that name because he always looks stoned. We adopted him at a local Petsmart here in town. A few vets told us he looks like a Maine Coon. His personality is definately unique from any other cat I had ever owned. Very demanding, likes to chase lights/reflections, oh and he has no teeth except his four canines. We adopted him with rotten teeth, so only soft food for the poor guy.

The next picture is Mika, short for Mika Lani. Shes the pretty sassy one, very typical aloof cat, also typical of calicos. Tolerats being touched, but you can tell she would rather not. Always follows us around to whatever room we are in. She was adopted from the Leid Animal shelter.

The last picture is with Bongo and Sammy. Sammy's official name is Samuel Murphy because he looks a little Irish. He's an Orange Tabby, and the most friendly cat I have ever known. I can be on the other side of the house and I'll yell, "SAMMY", and he comes running and meowing! Just like a dog. Our friends think its the coolest thing. Sammy also loves being on laps and if you give him a chance, he will "groom" your hair. The alpha male of the lot, loves pouncing on the other cats. He was adopted from Petsmart as well via Heaven Can Wait.

Nice cats Chris. My wife's a cat person but I'm more a dog man. That's probably why we don't have either.

Great pics Chris. I love cats as well. At present I don't have any but we are planning on getting some soon.

I like dogs but, sorry dog lovers, I much prefer cats. They are cleaner, don't smelll funny, dont dribble and drool and are miles more intelligent.

I was brought up in a house full of cats. For a while my mother bred Siamese cats - usually tabby (or Lynx) point.

Catnapping

Cats have turned the simple act of an afternoon nap into an art form.

My wife and I love cats. We had 2 generations of those lovable furballs. The last generation pass on and it was too darn hard to go through that again, so the wife doesn't want more till we settle down and I stop cross country commuting. I like dogs too, but with a hectic pace, cats are more self reliant and lower maintenance vs dogs.
See

for my take on cats vs dogs.

Great photos, guys! I am definitely a dog person, I've never really got along with cats. They aren't excited when you come home like a dog is, it merely flicks its tail and looks disinterested
I have to know that my pet is excited to see me!

(I must note, I have no dogs. I keep telling my mom that I'm going to use the money I'm saving for University to buy a beautiful Rottwieler puppy, but she says that both the puppy and I would then be homeless. One day though.... )

Cats are so damn cute. Every single pic posted here shows a highly intelligent animal, relentlessly hunting for sleep and food.

Like the rest of us.
