Thank you!

I did get to hold him the other day, when I picked up Nick after the "hay ride" and delivery.

Now, may I please have a pic of Fizzer shaking hooves? (I can't think of anything spectacular that Ichy does that you could capture in a pic - other than being stupendously GORGEOUS!)

It really is something to see. Wouldn't have believed it if I didn't see it with my own eyes AND feel his hoof in my hand. He's such a gentle sweetie!

Its hard, believe me. But a *little* discipline now will go a long way toward shaping a young person who understands consequences of actions.

He is not allowed to fool with the VCR and he was trying me the other day. I told him no, he grinned at me and laid *one* finger on the VCR wires. And watched for my reaction. I explained that I had told him no and I took one of my fingers and flicked his finger off the wires. He clouded up, we hugged and all was sunny again. He is SO cute.

Sethos always extends his claws when he is happy. He purrs and flexes, purrs and flexes.

LOL!! Let me ease your mind.....or not I guess since the cat is missing. Naw, Sethos is the son of one of our old cats, Peppermint. He is about 7 years old now and been with me through three moves now. He is an awesome cat and the only kitten we kept out of Peppermint, mouser supreme.
Too bad about your cat going missing.....I lost one of my favorites a few days after I moved in November. She just disapeared and none of the neighbours had seen her.

I'll see what I can do.....that will take two people. He still shakes all the time, but he only gives kisses every once in a while. He is a *real man* now, and has *man* buddies.

I hate it when they go missing, in some ways it's worse than them just turning up dead. Sorry you lost yours as well. We've lived here about 16 years and had never had a cat just go missing and never return like that. Always had a faint hope someone just picked him up and took him and might find his way back some day. But more likely it was coyotes

He does look just like him, but I was figuring it couldn't be because if it was, you wouldn't be letting a little baby's face so close He was known for "going for the face" lol and he would get ya! He was a character for sure, and beautiful.

Here's a pic not long before he went missing, doesn't show his pretty green eyes well though. Typical cat he was managing to lay on both pads we had set on the couch at the same time. Ain't he a spoiled cutie

ETA Sorry the pic is so big, won't let me make it smaller.
Ok, so I finally took my camera out...... - Goats

Patrick is in love with books. Not picture books, but my big hardbacks. While I dress, he sits and "reads".

The books serve well for building muscle also.

This is Sethos again.

Just about my favorite cat ever was Rory. He was amazing. He disappeared one day like yours and we never saw him again. I agree with you, its harder when they just disappear on you.

Sethos and Rory.

Aw, Rory looks like a fuzzy little sweetie. We had a yellow cat once. Called him Yellow Cat lol. But he was probably the sweetest cat we ever had. Would put up with anything and purred like crazy. One of the few cats you could just grab and put in your lap and he would stay and didn't mind you holding him or whatever. He was like just as relaxed as could be. We lost him to cytaux.
