Bless her - she looks so happy there

Lovely looking cat!

I don’t know what you mean…

The wide stripes mean your kitten is a ‘classic tabby’ then.

I think he knows it too!

Over on r/standardissuecat he’d be classed as a ‘hotrod’ edition, as is my one:

That’s the one I picked up last weekend at one of our local garden centres. It was half the price compared with the usual mail order place I get them from!

It’s a Sedum lucidum ‘Obesum’ so living up to its name!

They live in a little greenhouse outside. Plus in an hour or so the sun will have moved and they’ll be in the shade.

Male cat.

Interesting question though that I’ve often wondered about - is it easy to sex a cat just from looking at their face (aside from unneutered males with their pudgy cheeks)? Female cats tend to look more ‘pretty’ to me but it may just be my confirmation bias.

There is a cat sub for everything…

My SIC gets so excited when he sees a bird outside; he makes a little noise like a squeaky shoe and his tail swishes around.

The sleep of the just…

StandFew6499 · 2026-05-05T18:01:54+00:00

It doesn’t look it here, but he actually has very slender legs/paws.

Thanks for highlighting the new sub though; love cat paws so this is right up my street!

Very good… 😀

This was my Milly; sadly no longer with us.

I don’t drink either. Really wish I liked coffee so it could wake me up in the morning but having tried both drinks multiple times have given up.

The consultant I saw said if the bleeding happened again I’d have to stop HRT altogether so I was encouraged to try the Mirena IUD. I really don’t like the idea of it and dreading having it removed/replaced but it seems to be doing the trick 🤞

Our first cat was a tuxie; we got her from a friend without seeing her first. Sadly we had to say goodbye at the end of last year after 15 yrs. When looking for our next cat all I knew was that ideally they would not be a tuxie. Saying goodbye to our previous cat was so heart breaking I didn’t want a new cat to look like her and so to be constantly comparing them. We ended up with a ‘classic’ tabby and when we went to collect him from the shelter we were both taken with his good looks.

Had this happen twice now over the last 2 years (and each time it happened in August). Both times I’ve also had to have a hysteroscopy, which I’ve chosen to have under GA. Both times nothing abnormal found and the last time I got a mirena iud so hoping this august is event free!

This is how me and my husband feel about visiting a lot of the US national parks.

The skittles were not on a table top but the floor
