    The Favourite Niece wanted, and got, a kitten of Her Very Own, for her 21st birthday, reasoning that (a) she hadn’t had a cat since she was a little girl and (b) a cat would be cheaper and more durable than a boyfriend and less likely to interfere with her studies. So here’s the kitten, practising her Hard Stare:

    Within a week of the tabby kitten taking up residence, this kitten spotted a Good Deal and moved in:



    The two are about the same age, and rather to human surprise, are friends.

      Studying to be a "Mad cat woman"?

      At one point my girlfriend (now wife) had as a student, a menagerie which included six variegated cats, a large size lurcher and a bottle fed baby bat.
      I'd much rather lay in my bunk all freakin day lookin at Youtube videos .

        We got a second cat to keep the first one company. They hated each other all their lives.

          AND a boyfriend (now husband)!

          (We notice that the line about no boyfriends is hokum).

            Looking at the pictures I’d say that Luna the long haired tabby knows that she is Top Cat and Charcoal Knows Her Place.

              We had 2 brothers and eventually adopted 2 more male strays. They all got along once they were fixed and had personalities as different as night and day. All gone now.

                No issues with the lurcher chasing the cats?

                  The lurcher knew who was who.

                            A little difference on their faces.

                              Where to start... My dearest came over from the US with her parents cat. Then, we were buying veges in a roadside hut and there was a tiny kitten... . The stall owner pressed it on us and it settled down. We thought it was too young to produce, but the local big shaggy black cat had ravished her, out of our vision.. So, we had three new kittens..
                              I got out of hand after that.. Around 10 resident, several fed at the door.. There were all delightful, but....
                              When we moved to here (that was in Portugal..) we bought five with us.. 1600km in a small car with one moaning all the way.. Not the best drive!
                              Natural selection has wittled it down to one. He is a local from the abandoned home. Nuts, but good company.
                              I don't need an alarm clock, he comes in, very vocally, at 0705 every morning...
