Post a photo of your lazy, slacker, freeloading cat or kitten.

[Deep13]

I know, I know. Cat photos in the lounge? WTF? Still, given that this generation of felines are self-absorbed, underachievers with a sense of entitlement, I think it is long overdue that we let everyone know what we are facing.

Plus, they're so cute and fluffy and delightful.

[TZ]

1. Here are my slackers cuddling together..

Although I should mention they worked well with my alarm clock this morning--as soon as the radio turned on they started walking all over me...

[Deep13]

2. LOL!

"The radio's on. Get up! It was an hour late this morning!"

[GoCubsGo]

3. My old man.

He's 14. He can slack all he wants.

[Deep13]

11. Nocturnal animal my ass! I know a lay-about when I see one.

Your kitty looks eminently pet-able despite his passing resemblance to Hitler.

[GoCubsGo]

23. Oh! He is!

He loves a good scritch behind the ears--almost as much as he loves food. I had as similar first impression of who he resembles. Was half-tempted to name him "Adolph", but decided that was not such a good idea. My mom noticed that his dirty black nose is somewhat heart-shaped, so as a nickname, I we call him "Heart-nose."

[Arugula Latte]

4. Awww!

So sweet!

My grey boy's tummy did not adjust to Daylight Saving Time, so, this morning he was walking on my head, eating my hair, licking my pillowcase, and then he sneezed on me for good measure.

:hi:

[Amerigo Vespucci]

5. My cat, Seiko...who follows no rules other than her own.

:toast:

[Deep13]

8. open mouth = sense of entitlement

get a job, kitty!

:hi:

[Amerigo Vespucci]

18. Entitlement? Let's talk "entitlement"...

...I took this photo about five minutes ago with my cell phone in the living room, where it was dark, so sorry for the poor "night vision" quality:



The box is from a Pizza I bought at Safeway last week. The pizza itself is shrink-wrapped, so it's a clean cardboard box. Knowing my cat as I do, I realized she would probably enjoy this as her own personal "fort"...

...I was right. She curls up in there and takes a nap, and can still keep an eye on everything.

Entitlement strikes again.

:rofl:

[Deep13]

32. Beware of Guard Cat. nt

[Pool Hall Ace]

80. Shrink-wrapped pizza, eh?

I have heard that some of those cat forts have rather tasty textured ceilings!

[Call Me Wesley]

6. Ginger watching the Kois, not even trying.

[Deep13]

9. Listen Ginger, you can't just wait for something to happen.

You have to MAKE things happen! :evilgrin:

[sarge43]

14. Don't dream it, Ginger. Be it!

Never mind.

Your slave will have din-din ready at your command.

[Call Me Wesley]

28. Oh, we truly are slaves,

we just give us the impression we're not. But on the other hand, he deserves it. ;)

[Call Me Wesley]

17. Once he waited for one to jump.

I toweled him off, afterwards. ;)

[la_chupa]

20. no kitty don't do it

It's just not worth it.

[Call Me Wesley]

29. Two of my kois are almost bigger than him,

so I think it's a mutual understanding of something like 'I won't mess with you and you won't mess with me either. Just stay in the water there ...'

[Arugula Latte]

26. This is what Ginger is picturing in his mind:

[Call Me Wesley]

30. LOL!

But I'm not sure. Not since he gets boiled fresh fish regularly. Why bother with getting wet or needing to hunt them, when it's all warm and fresh on a plate already?

[LearnedHand]

58. Ooooohhhhh! Your beautiful Lilac Point!

I have a Lilac Point Meezer also -- my darling Ariel -- who is 16 yrs old. Here she is, kickin' it comfy with my other two Meezers, Yukon and Dante.

Shit! I'll get this in a minute. New image hosting app. Trying again. Well sorry. Can't get the image to show properly.

[Mutley]

7. He is planning to take over the world...

right after a nap!

[Deep13]

10. That's pretty much my plan. nt

[wickerwoman]

12. Here's my buddy whacked out on muscle relaxants:

Honestly doesn't look that different from when he isn't whacked out on muscle relaxants.

[Deep13]

15. Great, a stoner kitty.

Just say no, kitty, just say no! :7

[GoCubsGo]

24. LOL!!

How did my cat get on your sofa? Oooh, wait! Leather! I think he's planning to steal it for me!

[Bertha Venation]

103. Poor kitty.

Why the drugs? Is he sick? (Well, duh . . . )

[Patiod]

13. Nice sofa

[Deep13]

16. Still supporting that feline freeloader, I see.

LOL

[la_chupa]

19. look at that balance

granted the fat hanging down on each side of the puppy gate helps

He can also take a swipe at the puppy as he runs by without falling. Impressive isn't it.

[Arugula Latte]

27. Ha ha ha! Way to go, kitty! Put that canine in his (inferior) place!

:rofl:

[Deep13]

33. Damn fence-sitters.

Pick a side! We're at war! :7

[Pool Hall Ace]

81. Wow, no concern about derailing!

[sazemisery]

96. Monorail cat haz short track!

[mikeytherat]

21. Iz not lazy, iz sleepy!

mikey_the_rat

[la_chupa]

31. I like how they're spread out on the bed like electrons

can't actually TOUCH each other
unless it's cold, then different rules apply

[mikeytherat]

105. Warm weather cats = two positively charged ions. Cold weather cats =

mikey_the_rat

[Deep13]

34. Listen cats, sleeping all day is no way to spend your lives.

WTF and I thinking? That's the best way to go through life!

[MrsMatt]

99. My daughter pointed out that the three on the bed

look like a smiley face!

[mikeytherat]

102. That's what I love so much about that picture!

mikey_the_rat

[Bertha Venation]

104. I love your brood, Mikey!

:bounce:

[Rosie1223]

22. Perhaps it's time to let the cat out of the bag

[Deep13]

35. kant take meh bak too stor. Eated receet. nt

[sakabatou]

25. I iz undur your bedz

[hippywife]

36. There are three of the little slackers in this house.

When they aren't sleeping, they are meowing out orders to be fed and petted. I shit you not! :eyes:

[pengillian101]

64. Now, how cute are your furry pals!

How did Fiona ever survive, I wonder ;-)


Are they strictly indoor kitties? Or do they get outside and after your chickens?
:hi:

Our two fuzzballs. Scooters is the one who just loves the outdoors and Sneakers is the scardy-dee cat who just runs outside for a minute until there is a breeze and she freaks out and needs to come inside. In her defense--she survived near- tornado winds in a storm.

Both are nearing 20 years old.

[hippywife]

82. I don't know about Fiona.

We did set her free to be with her little froggie friends.

You kitties are really pretty, too. :hi:

You can stop getting that HTML code around your pics if you copy the "direct link" under your pics in Photoshop rather than the HTML code one. That link is used when copying the image when you want to paste it into a website you are building.

:hi: :hug:

[Orsino]

37. x4

This is me, covered up in 'em, a few nights ago.

[Skittles]

74. that is a great picture!

:thumbsup:

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

38. My biggest slacker, Milo:

[Skittles]

39. Riff Raff and Clancy

lazy bastids

[jus_the_facts]

79. I love their condo...

....they look mighty cute and comfy! :loveya:

[Skittles]

100. when that thing arrived in the mail, they would have nothing to do with it

after spending much time putting the damn thing togeither, they only played with the box it came in :mad:

months later they finally "discovered" it :D

[jus_the_facts]

101. Sooo typical...

...looks like they're wearin' it out now! :D

[Xipe Totec]

40. My cat is not a freeloader, but his opossum friend is...

Our cat has disemboweled rabbits, squirrels, and the occasional golden finch...

But for freeloading, his friend Simon, the opossum, takes the cake... or pie... or whatever you want to call that pile of cat puke the opossum is eating...

[Kali]

55. I've got freeloading wildlife too...

[charlie and algernon]

41. Esther being to lazy to actually scratch her scratching box

[Deep13]

87. "What? I fit in the box just fine!" nt

[PeaceNikki]

42. Mine

Simone (moaner, for short)


"Kitty" (after I RUDELY woke him up):


And Cocoa-nater (ok, she's a dog, but she thinks she's a cat):

[Brother Buzz]

43. I think we finally have her house trained but she is too lazy to bury her poo

[sarge43]

44. Major league slackers

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

46. Or these:

[sarge43]

47. They will take exception when the pilot starts pre flight check.

"Don't even think about taking this shade away, Meat."

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

48. This is why the First Officer normally does the exterior preflight.

The Captain will be elsewhere. "I'm, uh, gonna go check the weather. Or something..."

[sarge43]

50. Variation on

Q: What do you use to clean a B-52 in sub zero conditions?

A: A two striper.

[Crabby Appleton]

45. not my cat

[soleiri]

49. Okay, I'll try to find one

Mostly we have action shots of the kitties either mountain climbing, playing tennis or racquetball or doing some other activity (as is their nature).

okay, found one. Ed and Eddy

[SoxFan]

51. "Peel me a grape"

[kentauros]

60. Peeled grape, coming right up!

:P

[mockmonkey]

52. Titus

aka TubbaGoo aka THE TONGUE

He is not delightful. He is preoccupied with wanting to lick people when they want to sleep.

[Roon]

73. Hey Mock!

How long have we been online now? 11,12 years? Good to see you again.

[mockmonkey]

86. Hi Roon

It's hard to believe that it's been 10 years (for me) of being on-line. I always expect to see your green alien avatar from PT :hi:

I kind of miss the old VP chat rooms. It was this brief moment where I could find people from all over the world to hang with. I like to think that there is some place where they have all converged and I that I would find them again. I'm getting sentimental in my old age.

Good to see you again too, Roon.

[Roon]

94. Oh yeah, the PT was great

The Internet and home computers were brand new. Everyone was wide-eyed with wonder. Some good times.

[jus_the_facts]

53. The look of total lazy contentment.....

The SO with Brutus and Natasha.... :loveya:

[Skittles]

75. hey

yo' SO no so bad! :D

[jus_the_facts]

78. Thank You Skittles...

....after 17 years...I guess I'll keep him. :D

[Kali]

54. bums

[Ikonoklast]

56. Mu, in repose.

His littermate and partner in crime, Missy, comforting one of the ferals from a litter we rescued and found homes for. There were two female grey tabbies that went to the same home together.

[BrklynLiberal]

67. Sweeeeet...

62. Kohl

[Withywindle]

63. Aw man! What a yoga pose!

Cats are relaxation gurus. We have a lot to learn from them about chilling out on a heroic scale.


I know I totally FAILED at naps until I had a cat to show me the way. Something about a soft fluffy critter who wants nothing more than to be near you and vibrate....

[onestepforward]

65. My 3 slackers...

Maggie, Xavier and Duma. They only sleep together when it is cold!

[mcctatas]

66. I currently have seven lazy slacker freeloading felines

here is 'kitteh' the small and evil

and the stray I took in only later to realize that she was preggers, we call her the whore cat and her McNuggets

[pengillian101]

72. Way too funny!

Halloween cat eyes for certain.





Great kitty mom picture, all hugs and snuggles. How many kitties? 5-6?

[mcctatas]

84. there are 5 McNuggets...

initially I thought there were 6 but one of them ended up being mom cats foot :P She is really a good mommy though, I have never seen a more content kitteh mom, just lays there and purrs and looks all dopey, she either has the patience of a saint or the birthing process gave her brain damage :P

[BrklynLiberal]

68. I love this cartoon!!!

[BrklynLiberal]

69. My dog Boen may be bigger..but the cat, Cassie is the boss.

Moochie checking out the local wildlife..


Mommycat, Bootsie, Cassie, and Moochie

[pengillian101]

Don't you have a fun house to share!

:hi: They all look happy!

[bluesbassman]

[Skittles]

:loveya:

[greenbriar]

88. mine helping me rest

this was last year

[Arugula Latte]

90. Awwww!

I want to kiss that tummy! I don't care if I wind up with claws in my face, either! :loveya:

[question everything]

89. Agree. Some of them I'd love to just grab and pat their tummies

Are there more cat DUers than dog ones?

[Arugula Latte]

91. I dunno. When people have done preference polls in the Lounge

of Cat v. Dog it is usually pretty close.

We cat people tend to post more stuff about the kitties, though, for some reason. :)

[BrklynLiberal]

93. and many of us have both....

[sazemisery]

92. He is waiting at the bridge but he was lazy

[BrklynLiberal]

95. He was magnificent!!!!

What was his name?

[sazemisery]

97. Lego, the rescue kitty

He was a Norwegian Forrest cat. My son worked at a vet clinic & his coworker couldn't keep him because of allergies. His first toys were Legos and that is how he got his name. He went to the Bridge this year. The mice gave him a long wake and now they are invading the house. Either gonna have to get another kitty or buy some traps!





edited for speling

[BrklynLiberal]

98. He really was a magnificent cat....

[RubyDuby in GA]
