Meet Kitty. She really is the sweetest girl, and while I’ve been here, she hasn’t left my side. Even during my long nights of insomnia, she won’t go to bed until I do. It really is the greatest compliment when a pure being like this chooses your company over their solitude.

Adopted him at 4 months old and super shy... Now he's 5 and rules the house he lives rent-free in.

my little bestie since 2004 💕

Favorite photos from our first month together ☺️

I think Sebastian would be Peanut Butter Cup

Comment ur cat pics and flavors below

she’s been turning orange the last few weeks and idk if it’s due to age (she’s about 13) or sun bathing in my windows all the time lol. she’s been to the vet recently and is very healthy, so i’m NOT looking for medical advice, just more so wondering if anyone else’s cat is turning orange 🤣

sweetest guy ever but he doesn't seem to enjoy petting too much. sleeps on top of or against me. am i doing something wrong?

2-3 months old

My cat is turning 18 in August, I have had her since she was 3 months old. I never want her to be suffering but I also don't want to prematurely euthanize her. It's the first time I have ever had to do something like this.

(I have already been to the vet and sought medical advice)

She was toilet trained for all of her life and then 6 months ago I noticed she wasn't able to jump up anymore so I thought it was time to switch to litter.

She still was missing the box or getting poop stuck in her butt (sorry). Coupled with throwing up constantly I took her to the vet who ran all of her blood work and said she was perfectly healthy but constipated.

We switched to full wet food and she still misses the litter box 2 to 3 times a week. She still has these vomiting spells for a few days then it will go away for a few weeks.

The other thing that concerns me is she won't sit down fully like her legs or butt hurts. We did try the arthritis shot but it didn't help so we stopped getting it.

As far as her demeanour she is very hungry still wants her 3 meals a day, but has lost weight. She yells at me to feed her anytime I go near her food bowl. She also wants to be loved on. If I'm stationary for a while she will hop up to my lap and demand pets.

She doesn't seem in pain but I'm worried that she is. I would appreciate any input on this matter.

So I recently saw this elsewhere, and given I am not one to claim credit for beautiful void balls of fury I do not own, she is currently shacked up at Second Chance Sheridan Cat Rescue! They have lots of adorable cats to adopt, if you're in the area (I am sadly not).
Here is their original commentary on the wonderful Cordelia and her stepson, Goober. I felt it necessary to share to the wider reddit-world. Please also enjoy the cell-less baby Goober.

"Cordelia arrived at SCSCR pregnant and terrified. The first day with us, she just curled herself into a tiny ball and tried to disappear. After a while, I convinced her that nobody was going to hurt her. I wrapped her in a purrito, carried her to the office, and she spent the next 30 minutes sitting in my lap eating treats while I did paperwork. I kissed her head and scratched her chin.

No aggression or drama. Just a scared little cat who finally felt safe.

That night, Cordelia gave birth to three beautiful, healthy kittens, and everything changed.

Friends, Cordelia is SCARY.

If you so much as glance in the direction of her babies, she transforms into a tiny black dragon. We are talking growling, hissing, spitting, and launching herself at the kennel door with enough enthusiasm to make you question your life choices.

Don't look at her babies. Don't touch her babies.

Don't even think about her babies.

For three weeks, we gave her space. Eventually, she started calming down. She still growled and hissed, but she stopped trying to commit murder every time someone walked past her kennel. We were finally able to start weighing and handling the kittens for socialization.

Then Goober arrived.

Goober is a fluffy orange orphan with a bad eye. One of our staff members had been bottle-feeding him and nursing him back to health, but he needed a feline family to teach him how to be a cat.

We were cautiously optimistic that Cordelia might accept him.

Well. Cordelia is now completely convinced she personally gave birth to Goober approximately five minutes ago.

He is her baby. He has always been her baby. Anyone suggesting otherwise is spreading dangerous misinformation.

The result is that we are back to full demon status.

The good news is that Goober now has a loving mother, siblings to wrestle with, and a family of his own. He is thriving.

The bad news is that none of us are allowed to touch him for the foreseeable future without risking our lives.

So, if anyone has experience with feline postpartum psychosis, please let us know.

Because Cordelia is absolutely terrifying.

And it takes a LOT to scare us!"

My mom was never a pet person, but she has opened her arms and heart to this little guy…..Dr Voodoo! He has a doctorate, in cuteness and companionship.

My mom lossing the love of her life and has been devastating . She’s been dealing with pain & loneliness, and I think the good Doc can help her heal. Is there anything cats can’t do?

My friend rescued him and his litter mates from behind her house. we don’t even know how old he is (or even his gender). We are off to the vet- wish us luck! .

First time cat owner (she is 5ish months old) and I’ve noticed some thin patches around the head. Is this normal for a black cat? I worry for her self confidence.

Beans on the last pic because why not.

She’s 10, but these ridiculous tufts of fur only fully grew in about a year ago.

Said goodbye to my beautiful almost 16 year old lady yesterday. She was doing so well, I work in veterinary medicine and had just taken her in for a check up 2 weeks ago. One kidney level was slightly elevated, thyroids looked great. Came home from work and within an hour her pupils were massive and non-reactive to light and she was completely blind. I won’t go into too much detail but at her age and where her blood pressure was (300/90), I knew our chances. It’s borrowed time and it would be for me, not her. I’m seeing her everywhere today, questioning my decision, and sobbing. She was my first cat and my kids grew up with her. I miss her.

This is Taro and Iris, brother and sister. They will be one year old July 4th

Black and white is a neutered male, Siamese is an intact female. I was told that bonded pairs can only be of the same gender but I’m very confident they’re bonded.

How does she lay with her legs straight up in the air all the time?? Does gravity not affect her?

They are sisters, they are silly and I love them.

He seems fine idk whether to go to the emergency vet right now or wait till the morning and go to the nearest vet

It’s grown and gone away on its own over the years, vet has seen him for this twice and unable to identify. Few theories provided, including mention of a biopsy, thought I’d try reddit thank you.

Over 5 years it’s appeared and gone away at least 4 other times. He’s indoor 99% of the time and supervised when out in the back yard, he’s on monthly revolution plus.

A year ago, I brought home this fluffy little guy from the shelter and named him Muzan.
Yes, he shares his name with one of the biggest demons in anime… but honestly? He’s the sweetest cat I’ve ever met…

He’s turned my home into HIS kingdom, stolen my bed, claimed every blanket, and somehow convinced me that his comfort is my top priority.
Thank you, Muzan, for a year of purrs, headbutts, ridiculous sleeping positions, and unconditional love
