All your cattes are amazing. I had a female ginger called Paisley when I was a kid. Awesome cats, and I never met a ginger male who wasn't awesome either.

Your cats are so cute, thanks for sharing their pictures. OP is right, orange cats are the best.

Orange cat the first. My old roommate named him Clarence. He was wrong about this, but the name stuck. Great cat though, very much a loner. Found in the back forty of an old farmhouse I lived in, took months to coax inside. Not much miaow, but kind of a plurrrp noise when he was happy. He lived on the landing halfway down the basement stairs most of the time.



Orange and white cat, eventually named Simba. Showed up at an old converted schoolhouse I rented in the middle of nowhere. Took seconds to coax inside. Softest miaow ever, almost never used it. He might have been at least part Norwegian Forest Cat or Maine Coon. He had all kinds of fur between his toes. But he lived in front of the space heater whenever it was on, and was always in whatever room I was in.



Clarence and Simba's Tundra Adventure:



Never Mind, gently caress Adventure: (note by the tracks in the snow how far they got)



Sadly, they are both gone. They were best cats and are still missed.

My first ever short-haired cat. Also the first upside-down one. Bruce was left behind by some people who apparently gave him drugs, and slammed his tail in the door as they moved out. Presumably the tail bit was accidental, at least. Those people sucked, some friends rescued him, couldn't keep him, and now he lives with me. He's kind of weird and only has two settings: quiet and screamy. No miaow. Very sociable, though, and if not napping, wants to be around people.



Sometimes, Bruce is in the sink. I think this is because he's a very muscular cat who runs hot, and likes cool surfaces to lie on.

Thanks! Bruce has turned out to be a really fantastic cat too. I don't understand how anyone could have left him behind. Rereading that, I had to go call him, then follow him to his special dish and pet him while he ate (his favorite thing these days).

Delayed Reaction
Mar 18, 2009

I am known as the Queen of Delayed Reactions for a reason, heh.
I'm still trying to come to terms with 2 of my cats having to be put to sleep within 3 weeks of each other. They were the best cats! Both had the happiest, loving dispositions and I'm so heartbroken. Letting them go was the hardest decision I've ever had to make. I couldn't have asked for more loving companions. I try to comfort myself with the knowledge that they had the best most wonderful lives any cat could ask for and that they grew up with my son for 2 decades. They are laid to rest, side by side, in the prettiest and sunniest part of my courtyard. (They were indoor cats).

This is Zuki, he passed in my arms on Friday January the 13th, 2017. He was 18. I'll forever dislike Friday the 13th!


This is Skooter, she passed in my arms as well on Wednesday February 8th, 2017. She was 20.


I had to let them go even though I wanted to keep them with me. They were the best!

However, I have a 4 year old named Bebop and she is my soulmate in cat form :) I rescued her and pretty much raised her like a human baby, so she and I are so close.

Here's Bebop sleeping on my shoulder after I rescued her from a thorn bush after she had been abandoned across the street from my house:


Here's Bebop sleeping all crazy as a kitten :)


Here she is Christmas morning 2016 all grown up:


I don't think I'd have made it without Bebop. But I'm forever grateful to have had Zuki and Skooter for as long as I did. Thanks for reading <3

Edit: Oops, Bebop is not orange but she still rocks :)

Bebop is a good cat, who is clearly in need of a little cowboy hat. :allears:

Or at least a handkerchief around her neck.

Pebble again, curled up here. Little dude is one week into his recovery from a subtotal colectomy. His second episode of complete constipation required two vet-administered enemas, and was followed a week later by a third episode, so gently caress you large intestine, you gotta go. We really were hoping to not have to go through the major surgery route for at least a couple years, too.



Now all he does is poop.

Probably not. She was named by her previous owner (old lady who died) and the name itself is an old Nordic/Swedish name that means blessed. Pronounced sing-neh.
