This is nothing but a gratuitous pet post.

I love seeing photos of people's pets and know some of my flist's friends pets well. I'm thinking pets like Salem, Lancecat, Fluffy and Sable, Olivier, Martha and Marusya, Layla, Naryu, boy cat, girl cat and baby kittie, and so many others I've come to know over the years.

Behind the cut are photos of my kitties, and you know, if you would like to share some photos of your own pets that would be great. Doesn't have been cats or dogs, if you've a pet goat, go for it.



This is Pansy, my little ex feral.



A nice profile shot of Murphy. I love the slope of his nose and his huge ears.



Milo likes to lounge in the sink when I'm in the bath. He's an old man now, a bit stiff, but after his recent illness is doing nicely.



Finally, this is mam's cat Megan. I share looking after with her with Kayleigh. I pay Meg's insurance and Kayleigh her day to day expenses. She always looks grumpy, it's her normal expression.

Awww I love the mention of Lancecat and Naryu!🖤 (She was snuggly earlier After I had a doze here)

Awww they’re all so cute! Milo in the sink! Awww Megan

I thought of you last night! There was this thing on ign with Trek people about what they’ve been watching and it made me think of you because so many said Schitt’s creek!

[turps]

Of course, I'd mention them, and Leia needs a mention too. That is such a lovely snuggly photo ♥

Megan always looks furious which is a shame as she can be really cuddly when she wants.

What a great article, thanks for linking it. Schitt's Creek is such a good show, especially once Patrick arrived. No wonder so many people are watching.

[shadowhive]

You’re so sweet! Yeah she came up after I had a doze and was very snuggly

Awww🖤

That’s ok! I really need to watch it too sometime🖤

[fairestcat]

What beautiful kittens! Here's a picture of Dreadful from a couple of days ago:

[turps]

Hello there the beautiful dreadful!

I love the pose, and look at those sweet cat feet ♥

Thank you for sharing such a lovely photo.

[dine]

those are some fabulous kitties!

thanks for the shout-out to Olivier - that just made me happy (and when I tell him, I'm sure he'll be so proud to have been mentioned). I'll try to snap a good pic of him the next time he wanders by

[turps]

Olivier is a fantastic cat and of course, gets a mention.

Bruce:



River a year ago:



River now:

[misbegotten]

And Lily, the last of our three baby kitties, gets her own post. ;)

[turps]

Oh Lily, what a beauty. She looks incredibly strokable.

Thank you for sharing all the photos. I really enjoyed looking at them.

[turps]

Oh wow. What amazing photos! I'm so pleased the dogs are getting shown too.

River looks so incredibly happy in that last photo, and Bruce is making me smile just looking at him.

[chalcopyrite]

Ahaha Megan is clearly from the same stock as Nell, who Always Disapproves.

Those are lovely pics of your cats, thank you for sharing!

[turps]

I love grumpy looking cats. They judge you so severely!

You're welcome. I enjoyed picking and posting photos and seeing all the ones others have posted in comments. So it's a win-win.

[pensnest]

What gorgeous cats! Does Murphy have giant ears, or is that a trick of the angle? And Megan looks quite a lot like my Fluffy, very similar face markings and symmetry.

I kinda miss the pets on Shakesville. Zelda was 'my' virtual dog.

[turps]

Murphy's ears are a bit big. I suspect he'll grow into them, and until then always looks a little ear heavy *g*

I've just looked up Shakesville and Zelda. What a beautiful, happy looking dog.

[theladysnarkydame]

Your cats are so lovely! Clearly, they're all personalities. :D

These are my boys, Sanji and Zoro. They're brothers, about 12 years old.



Zoro, slightly peeved in his window seat:



Sanji, mostly asleep, as he usually is:

[turps]

They have personalities for sure.

Oh, look at your beautiful boys!

They're stunning, and what gorgeous names. I love how alert they look in the first photo and so relaxed in the others.

Thank you for sharing them with me :D

[frausorge]

Beauties all of them! Cats are such a good shape, in general, I always think. Pansy looks so alert, and Murphy so content. Milo's markings are very artistic! And Megan is beautifully fluffy.

Sadly I have no pets of my own now, but perhaps I may be allowed to post this street cat again that I met in Varna last summer:

[turps]

A street cat is an excellent addition to the post. What a beauty, and framed so well.

Thank you for the contribution :D

[cesy]

Thanks for this and all the commenters.

[turps]

I'm so pleased people have posted their pet photos too.

I've been enjoying looking at them all :)

[rikes]

What an excellent post. ♥ And aww, I didn't know you had company when you take a bath, that's so sweet!

[turps]

I'm glad other people enjoyed the pet photos too.

Yeah, Milo likes to lie in the sink and make sure I'm okay *g*

[turlough]

Pretty kitties!! The photo of Pansy is so pretty and I just love Murphy's giant bat ears. Milo looks so content relaxing in the sink like that. (How lovely that he keeps you company when you're having a bath!) And Megan is so adorably grumpy and fluffy!

Here's a photo of Lancecat from last week:

[turps]

Hi Lancecat, hi! He looks so content in the sun.

Milo is the only one of my cats that has liked to lounge in the sink like that. Thankfully he usually keeps away from the actual bath, I can do without sharing *g*

[bettina]

Kitties! :D

[turps]

So many cute kitties!

[glitteryv]

Such cuties all of them! Tho I have an extra!soft spot for Megan. Grumpy/Judgy cats are my faves, hahaha

[turps]

Megan is such a grumpy cat looking cat. She can be loving when she wants but always on her own terms. Not that I can blame her, she's been through a lot.

Which reminds me of this extra grumpy photo that always makes me laugh.



Meg has a skin condition which means she has to go to the vets every month for sterioids -- and man, I'm so glad mam took out top of the range insurance on her as those visits add up. She always looks like this while at the vets, even though she's actually good as gold and lets them do anything to her.

Unrelated to cats. Have you been watching Making the Cut? I was debating if I should download or not.

[glitteryv]

I LOVE HER EVEN MORE AFTER LOOKING AT THAT PIC!!!!

RE Making the Cut: I...am sitting it out. For one thing, I kinda burned out on Heidi and Tim when they were in PR. For another, there are many other shows I'd rather be watching. TBH, I don't know many folks who are watching it either. Not sure if it's because it's been under marketed OR if it's not clicking with folks the way the Netflix design show did. YMMV.

[turps]

She's such a cute grumpy cat.

Well, with that I'm giving Making the Cut a pass. Like you I have a load of other shows I need to watch, and I've heard no buzz about it, so added to what you said, it's a pass.

[glitteryv]

Update on Making the Cut: someone finished the season and spoiled me abt the show. So, I'd say that passing on it is THE BEST AND HEALTHIEST CHOICE YOU CAN MAKE FOR YOURSELF IN THESE TIMES.

(I can spoil you if you want to, but basically, there's a lot of bullshittery that gets ignored and the winner is the most mediocre person of the bunch despite other ppl who were way more qualified than [winner].)

[brandywine28]

I'm late enough to this post that I feel awkward piling on -- but that's okay, 'cos it's a gray, depressing morning here and I'm so, so happy to just sit back and gaze at KITTIES. (And two truly amazing dogs!)

Will you tell Megan that I adore her perfect, grumpy face? So grumpy! So perfect!

[turps]

No comment is ever too late around these parts.

I'm so pleased other people posted their pets, I enjoyed looking at them all.

And, that message was passed onto Megan. I'm sure she would have been pleased as she was at the vet's again today.

[ephemera]

Such beautiful photos, of such fine and beautiful kitties!

[turps]

They're all kinds of adorable!
