Awww, poor thumbs :(



Here's a love story.

This is Boots



My girlfriend and I picked her up from a shelter to be her kitty a couple years ago. She's always been very cute, very weird, and independent. She loves both me and my girlfriend and always has.

This is Rosie.



She's the love of my life, she was a Goon's cat and I rescued her when that Goon's roomates couldn't care for her anymore. She loves me almost exclusively, although she is willing to tolerate my GF after 3 years. She will not socialize with other animals no matter what techniques I try. She'll form a relationship where she has some territory and the other animal does not, but that's the best I've got. She slays smaller animals with impunity, and once caused a blackout in a large Seattle neighborhood when she chased a racoon up a power pole and it shorted the high-tension lines.

The problem is, Boots is in love with Rosie, she follows her around, imitates her, and when Rosie attacks her she rolls on her belly to show Rosie she's harmless. Her #2 desire in the world (after being let out and chasing birds) is to spend every second of her day with Rosie.

That's mostly due to pre-covid my GF lived apart from me, and traveled for work constantly, so Boots as a kitten would come over for kitty-sitting and terrorize Rosie. For about a year Boots got a brother, and he terrorized her instead, and didn't really see me or Rosie. Then in the last few months Boots and my GF moved in, and Boots has rekindled her romance with Rosie.

This is all leading to tonight, where I put this cat bed that Rosie peed in at some point in Boot's favorite sitting spot, and Boots loves it because she's loving weird and wants to sleep in whatever smells like Rosie



E: that first pic is Boots luxuriating on the scratching post I built for Rosie, and has like 5 years of Rosie hair ground into the carpet.

I submit, for thread consideration: Lucy

Lucy is ten. She likes to slowly walk in circles while chirping, she can purr while sucking on a particular piece of felt for hours, and she loves her (filthy) bath mat in the sunbeam that appears from 8:45-11:45am.

Maybe I can figure out the embed here.

Here's one of my cats, Tarot, as he helps me enjoy Point Break.


This is Ouiji (spelling intentional due to copyright!!!), she doesn't go much besides scream at you and demand pets.


Finally, this is Charlie. She's an enemy to all cats but a total bro to all people. She'll show you her belly then bite the poo poo out of your hand when you touch it. Wouldn't have it any other way.

In meteorology, vorticity often refers to a measurement of the spin of horizontally flowing air about a vertical axis.

Not sure if I posted in here before but this is Pennywise! I didn't even name him, the shelter did! I got him last November.





I'm a bit unkempt in this pic so bear with me. He sits up against me like this all the time. Just plops there, hugs my arm, and leans on me. :3:



He's almost 9 months old now and he's a pistol. A bit naughty yet. He is SUPER needy. He needs to be by me at almost all times and he loves to snuggle a lot. First thing in the morning, I get up, feed him, sit down on my couch and he jumps up on me and we cuddle and rub our faces together for a few minutes. He misses me after being alone all night because I don't let him sleep with me. That was a mistake I won't repeat twice.

This is my favorite pic of him. I took it just a week or so after I got him. He's about 3-4 months old here.
