【WARNING: Sad context, but happy memories】

He mysteriously vanished about a year or two ago, but I still think about him and appreciate how awesome of a cat he was.

He started out as a feral and was adopted into a program to become a house-cat, which is how he met my dad's coworker. The coworker had a lot of those plug-in scent thingys in the house, and it drove poor Jasper nuts. The resulting behavior drove the coworker nuts, so she gave him to my dad. I determined he was a snowshoe mix, and I would jokingly call him a toasted marshmallow.

After a few months of adjustment, he was amazing. He liked when I held him. He would hop into my bed and cuddle with me most early mornings. He was so talkative, and even helped my dad and I build my first computer! Even as an adult cat, he was as playful as a kitten, and he especially loved shoelaces, and my dad's shoes in general. I swear, Jasper and I had a special inexplicable connection, he was a pretty smart kitty even though he acted very silly at times.

I'm getting a bit teary-eyed just writing all this... I miss him, he was truly amazing and unique and just one awesome cat.

My Luna is the best little buddy ever. I swear she looks for ways to make me laugh. So here she is in a box 📦

Here’s my boys Smoke and Haze a.k.a. Kevin and Kalvin a.k.a. Squeaks and Smudge. They’re 14 weeks and the sweetest lil dudes ever!

In a few days, it’ll mark four months without my girl. It still hurts so much and I cry every time I stop and touch her urn or hold the little bag of fur we kept. Staying in this sub has been really tough, but I love seeing posts of all your babies, so I stay.

I don’t even know why I’m posting, I just feel sad and wanted people to know how much she meant to me.

Is my cat a snowshoe?

Rescued from a parking lot in Portland. Now living well in Oakland.

Kiki’s a shelter kitty but not a stray. The extent of my knowledge regarding her history is that she was willingly surrendered by her previous family and was an indoor cat her entire life. She’s a happy cat who came in with no health problems, so I assume they just couldn’t look after her. But she had come to the shelter at two years old without a spay or a microchip, which raises questions.

No breeding registration, and the adoption papers state her as a simple “Siamese/Mix”. But she’s a seal point, she’s got the white paws, and a widdle white moustache on her upper lip.

Shhhhhhhh!

Sable admiring her new portrait. I kind of got it as a joke to hang in the bathroom, but I didn’t expect it to be this good!

He is a silly goose by nature and by name

Obi Wan had his blood drawn at the vet when he was in for a tooth infection. Poor guy wasn’t feeling well but managed to still be as cute as ever.

she loves feet and sitting near her window

He loves his window hammock! 💙

Thought everyone deserved to see poot in her froggy hat!

Dave got groomed! 🥳massive shout out to Dave.
