Anybody want to see the cutest kittens in the world?

The small ones are almost a month old, their mommy is about 9-10 months, so still technically a kitten too.

I miss my kittie. I want your black one.

Mustn't . . . get . . . a . . . kitten . . .

You *******!

That's the nice thing about black cats (for those of us who wear a lot of darker colors).

One just accepts shedding as part of the package of having loving little furballs living with us. I don't ever want to know how much cat hair I ingest over the course of a year.

IMHO, it's generally not worth the bother trying to have a wild cat as a pet. It sounds like your friend got lucky. The hubby and I strongly suspect our grouchy cat is about 1 generation away from barn cat. We love him, but he really is a pric[i][/i]k who nobody but we can touch without fear of blood loss.

Must now get someone to resize picture of the cute kitten in /kittens17.jpg for new avatar.

We have 2 rescued cats, from our Vet.

Goldiva is psycho and known to attack unexpectanly any body part below the seat of my office chair. Then other days she is the most loveable cat you can want. In future visit to the Vet's office they will setate her before she is seen. She spent 3 months living at the Vet's office before we were allow to adopt her, so dislikes the place with a passion. Last time we took her to the vet, she leaped at Jonwin's provate parts. The vet says we are the only family that could deal with such a crazy cat.

Tony is built like a mobster and will force you to pet him. He has a glimp foot and patch of brown hair on his as[/sm]s, that makes him look like he sh[sm]it on himself.

We also have a lovely 17 year old cat that hides all the time. We're trying to convince her to come up out of basement to eat. Mask sightings are very rare events and I lived here for nearly a year before she would come near me.

Like this?

Only when we're not afraid to educate them will children stop having children

We were *told* that she was spayed when we got her, but she got out the first time she was in heat and bam.

We call her "Slutty Cat" in reference to "Smelly Cat" from Friends.

My viewpoint is closer to Flea's on this one. Pets exist to enhance the owner's life, not to be the subject of infatuation.


I definitely plan to outlive all of my pets. I made a mental note of this on the day I got each one of them. I do spend time with the little critters and they serve their purpose (to enrich MY life) but if one of them kicks over or vanishes, I'll just get a replacement.

So this means a person shouldn't love their pets while they're under one's care?

I'm afraid most pet owners on the planet may disagree.

This is when cats are generally the cutest and most playful, but after 6 months or so they get too big to be cute and need to be replaced...

At least, that's what it was like at my mom's house. There was usually at least one litter a year.

Ironically, I could care less. If you were to plop over dead, I'd get a replacement.


I'm not opposed to loving your pets, but there's a line crossed when you photograph them endlessly in different angles to capture an "expression", in cute outfits, put them on your Christmas cards, celebrate their birthdays, etc. I love my cat, but she's a cat. I don't try to impose a personality on her or make her into my pretend best-friend or, God forbid, an accessory. Of course these people are within their rights to do so, but I retain my right to mock them.

This is the kind of crap I'm talking about.
