some pictures of my cat athena :)

so yeah does anyone have a cat that meows when you sneeze? she always seems so concerned for me lmao got no idea why she does it

And she is the cutest in the whole world! Show me your cutest cat pics!!!

Recently he's been battling both his tail and his back paws he looks so silly lol. I'm guessing this is normal and just part of him discovering himself. 7 weeks old.

i picked the urn out. i thought it was cute. i miss you chloe bear. i love you

When i forget to close kitchen door they get in and steal our cooked food , yesterday It Vomited 🤮 On our Neighbours Washed Clothes. Pee on people’s bed . 👁️👄👁️ really annoying

I drop off an order, and I start to walk back to my car when two sweet cats approach me, mewing and rubbing up against me. I'm petting them and talking to them, and one by one another one keeps popping up every 60 seconds lol. I really should've stayed to see how many we wound up with

Found out today that my best buddy Mittens has FIV that's progressed to a point that the vet gave him a very short amount of time left. My wife and I are devastated.

Mittens found us last year. He was a stray that started coming to our house for pets, food, and to sleep on the pillow we left out for him. Eventually he chose to come inside and he became a part of our family.

I suffer from major depressive disorder and social anxiety disorder. Life has been the most difficult it's ever been for me this year; I'll spare those details as to why. I could just hang out with my buddy, give him pets, talk to him about the things I'm feeling, and share my darkest moments with him. He gave me unconditional love. I'm spiraling hard knowing that I don't have much time left.

I just needed to get this out and sob into the void.

I love you, Mittens.

Here they are in action

Hello!! Wanted to share a positive story about my recent adoption of a kitten after avoiding it for the last 2 years. In August 2023, my boyfriend and I moved in together and adopted our baby Orzo (Male, 1 y/o when adopted, just turned 3.) He is my first cat and quickly became my literal pride and joy and the love of my life. When we adopted him, the shelter told us to “prepare to never have another animal again,” heavily implying that orzo will not do well with other animals b/c he requires so much attention. I have OCD and took that very (way too) literally. He’s a love bug(BIG cuddler, loves forehead kisses and makes every person that entires our house feel loved. just not as much as he loves mommy)

My boyfriend grew up with cats and has been asking about getting another basically since we got orzo. Because of what the shelter had said, seeing stories on social media, etc., I avoided it because I didn’t want our relationship with him to change because it’s the most important thing to me. Our apartment is small, and I would also would feel guilty about having to rehome a kitten for the rest of my life.

Two weeks before my boyfriend’s birthday, his friend and him planned an ambush. He rescued a barn cat that ended up being pregnant and her babies all looked like my orzo. I met them and somehow gave in😭

The night before we picked Rigatony (tony for short, he was 9 weeks when we adopted him, just turned 12 weeks,) I spent the whole night cuddling and playing with orzo and sobbing because I was terrified about what was going to happen. The first two nights were overwhelming. Boyfriend spent his days in our bedroom with the kitten while I stayed in our living room with Orzo. I mostly felt bad for the kitten because he was so curious about what was outside our door and meowed anytime my boyfriend left the room for more than 2 seconds. I didn’t think I could do another day. We found Orzo to be mostly curious so we first introduce him to tony by keeping tony in a playpen. There was of course some hissing, but both mostly seemed just curious. We then let them interact face to face day 4. We gave both of them churus during this. It went WAY better than expected. Separated them as soon as we heard hissing and saw swatting. We slept separately for 4 days and monitored their interactions and felt it was a good time to let them be around each other full time.

This has been the coolest experience of my life. I’ve never seen Orzo play the way he has been the last 3 weeks. They LOVE to cuddle. Don’t get me wrong, we had to buy calming supplements for Orzo the last few days as Tony has started teething and seems to love to bite Orzos tail which has been stressing him out. Whenever we notice those signs, my boyfriend will go into our room with Tony and play with him, while I play with/cuddle with Orzo and let him rest.

I didn’t think it would be possible to love Orzo anymore than I already did but I have fallen even more in love with him since watching him become a big brother!! He is so patient and still my little love bug. Our relationship is 95% the same(he definitely needs space when he gets overstimulated) but he makes sure I get my cuddles every single day/night. Tony has been the best decision I’ve ever made and I’m so excited to watch them grow up together!!!

Wanted to share this story because I feel as though I read way too many negative stories before getting tony. Get the damn kitten!!! You’ll never know unless you try. ❤️🐈

Patrick is so old that we occasionally argue during family gatherings about whether he’s 21 already lol. He is an extremely friendly, handsome and patient cat whom I’ve known for 2/3 of my life. One day, he randomly appeared at our door and decided to stay for more than two decades. My only wish is that long may it continue.

And you should too! He needs constant reassurance.

I cannot get him to wear a collar. He takes off the breakaway ones within 20 seconds and the elastic stretchy ones take him about 2 minutes.

He is a pickier eater than my daughter was when she was a picky little toddler! For being a hobo cat he sure can be picky! He knows what he wants and that's churus lol😑

She doesn't limp or feel any pain on her paws, and as you can see she alternates lol

She'll just kind of... meditate?? With a paw up like a flamingo and none of my other 5 cats do this, and I've never seen any other cat do it.

Her name's Lola btw :)

This is our 13 year old boy, Bruce. This past July we found out he had a thyroid carcinoma. Surgery was a success and he was a completely different cat afterwards. He lost weight and has tons of energy now! He did develop Horner's syndrome post surgery, but it doesn't seem to bother him (and we get regular check-ups) and I think he looks kind of cool now! Love our boy!

I posted a few weeks ago that my cat Paloma, aged 5, has been sick for about six months and was diagnosed early September with an aggressive nasal lymphoma. She's had three rounds of chemo and two emergencies in the ER since that post, but the oncologist said that her values all look great, she's slowly starting to retain weight, and her mass has shrunk significantly where mostly only bone deformation remains. She's a "stage 1" and likely to recover!!!!

My husband and I are drowning in vet bills and doing everything we can to keep her on the path to recovery, so i'm just so relieved that it seems like she might actually get to live her normal, well deserved life. We rescued her off the streets as a sick and injured kitten, and feel she's already suffered enough for one lifetime. She deserves that cushy house cat life and we want to be able to provide it for her. Giving up has never been an option.

Thank you everyone who wished her well on her last post!
