I need an infusion of cuteness.

(and do I really have to specify live, healthy cats?)

2. Our cat Sonia . . .


She is finally getting used to being an indoor cat. She and Ben spend most of the night torturing each other!!

This is truffle who is no longer with us:

8. she has four vertical orange eyebrows
what a striking face. She's lovely! And Truffle looks aptly named. I always thought truffles should be fluffles...

11. She is actually jet black.
I think it is the way the sun is reflecting off of her. Now our other cat (no pics of) is a burnt orange or as we call him our toast marshmallow (he loves to sleep in front of the fireplace)!!

25. The sun does that on Daddy's fur, too.
I'm surprised I didn't recognize it.

Is "toasted marshmallow" the other cat's name? :bounce:

13. Thanks!
The eyes are actually a bright green. Unfortunately I have not figured out how to adjust the picture tints to get the right color.

4. That is wonderful, MissHoney. I think this kitty is beautiful
and I love the pinching of the foot -- to make the claws come out? I do that to my cats all the time, even when I'm not trimming their claws. I like to see the claws work. (call me weird)

thanks for the photo!

17. Wonderful! I love golden-eyed cats.
Do your in-laws breed cats, or foster kittens...?

19. I know, they are really cool, aren't they?
They had blue/green eyes when they were little, and grew into goldens.

My ILs live on a farm. They were adopted by a mama cat, long-haired and white. So there are lots and lots of little white kittens now! People love to adopt them :) There are also lots of turtle-shell and orange stripes, and weird combos of those... 1/2 white and 1/2 turtle shell, or white with a turtle 'shadow'... neat stuff!

23. She's a beauty.
Is there something wrong with her right eye, or am I seeing a lighting/camera thing?

24. She sometimes has allergies
but it's in her left eye most of the time, not her right. It's probably the lighting. :)

The wisdom flowing from this pic is overwhelming!


BTW, that's her green eye you see. The shadowed one is gold.
