Show us your pets!

I'm also convinced that he knows how to open the fridge & use the microwave.

They can be so clever! Ask him to make you supper.

Hmm, I wonder if I could get him to wash the dishes afterward?

Lisa, even though I haven't posted in awhile I have had you near in my thoughts. I am so glad to read that you have a new family member. Your special new kitty will bring so much into your life and help soothe a broken heart. For whatever reason, they always know when to come knocking on our heart's door and become a welcomed, permanent guest. My best to you and yours during this new season of hope. ~Cathy

thank you Cathy- how sweet.
Yes, we believe in adopting a new kitty right away when we lose one- too many desperate kitties out there hoping for a loving home. Having a new one running about definitely shortens the time you can spend in contemplative mourning mode.
Our new kitty Sheba is a feisty little delight, and she and Suki are getting along quite well so far- even eating from the same bowl if the food is yummy enough.
At 7 months or so, Sheba is still pretty kitten-ish and wants to chase Suki, and so there is an occasional hiss, but not bad at all! they both sleep on the bed with us, though still maintaining some respectable distance between them. lol!

We already have a couple of funny nicknames for Sheba too...
when she's being 'good' we call her "Shebaby"
and when she's being 'bad' she becomes "SheBeast"...just like my biking tights! lol!

Since I'm computer illiterate, I've put off posting pictures of my cats for, like, forever. DH has offered to help.

The big guy on the white towels is Henry. He's never met a towel/clean piece of laundry/blanket that he won't lay on. The little tabby is our new kitten, Izzy. We got her this past summer at our local humane society. She's a total spaz. The black and white cat is Sophie. She's the kittie we lost this summer. We miss her still.

Wow Indy- such beautiful cats and such beautiful photograph portraits!

I love the contrast between Henry and Izzy's green and gold eyes.
And Sophie's amazing wild whiskers- that photo looks somehow oriental.

Who is the great photographer?

[indysteel]

Thanks, Lisa! DH is the photographer. He took all of them but the second shot of Izzy. He's quite talented, if I do say so myself. It's hard to choose which pictures to post; we have so many good ones.

I loved Sophie's crazy whiskers. Gosh, how I miss her. Izzy filled a big void, but no cat will ever replace my Sophie. Here's one more:

oh how I adore tuxedo cats. Never met one yet that I haven't loved.

Here are Thor and Mars (yellow tabby) all grown up.

Wow, indy...another rave for your DH's photography skills. Each of those photographs is striking in its own way. Stunning cat art...and I'm a dog person!

Thanks, Emily! He really does have a good eye. DH is kind of an enigma. He's an engineer through and through, but he has this very creative side, too, that I love.

Indy--what beautiful photos that capture their soulful eyes. I can get lost in them...

Lisa, time will reveal Sheba's special little quirks that often mimic the ones displayed in those we have loved and lost. It's comforting, really, to capture a glimpse of something that we thought we had lost forever.

Marcie...do your kitties prewarm your towels too?

Kali and her beloved frisbee

IndySteel - somehow I missed your photos before, they are just plain adorable. I can almost feel their fur and hear their purring, the photos are that expressive. I hope to meet your cats someday, they are just adorable

[makbike]

Sundial - my gang is not big into prewarming my towels but they do warm my side of the bed up each night

Oh lucky you!
