Moo Moo (#43) went house shopping yesterday

Is this my new house


Are you serious, this house looks like a trap


No privacy in this one


Too boring, this house puts me to sleep


Is this one a cow house as well


House?


...House?


Ugh, enough. I, a cat, can MAKE a better house than all of these. I'll build my own


Just roll out the flooring and I'm good to go


All done

my cat of 24 years died.

he was the best cat till the end. but in the last 2 days he was rough. he was trying to throwup and loosing consciousness because of it. he was on like 4 pills, i was selfish enough. i bawled like a baby when i had to go kill my best friend. they wanted me to go in there to see him peace i couldnt do it.

the best cat is love

24 is excellent.

although there was a cat in the us that live to 38 and another in the us that lived to 37 which is some bullshit why can't they all last that long

edit: hmm the guy who had the 38 year old had another one that lived to 34 (a sceptic might say 'well they're lying' but i haven't seen anything confirming saying that's so from a cursory google search...) interesting diet they had

'The co-authors of at least one book have pondered whether the longevity of Perry's cats may have had something to do with an unusual diet of, among other things, bacon and eggs, asparagus, broccoli, and coffee with heavy cream, concluding that Perry "must be doing something right."['

Hey kids it's Uncle dee here with you in these waning hours of dignity. We've made a valiant effort to this point, but it seems that we are heading into a quagmire. Paid nominations have stopped pretty much and nobody took that one guy up on his bet. I know I wouldn't take that bet. Mark Twain wrote if somebody bets you $20 that he can make the Jack of Diamonds jump out of a deck of cards and squirt cider in your ear, don't. Otherwise you will be $20 poorer and have an ear full of cider.

But...I have a very clever plan [/Baldric]

If some of you clever and techno ready goons could make avs out of the nominees and post 'em here, somebody might buy one.
Also it would make a good visual for balloting purposes.


or mug shots if there happens to be any collusion with dogs.

Make an imgur account, upload to that. Use the link that has [img] tags.

I was bored this morning so I whipped up a site real quick that should let you (relatively) easily make images in SA-avatar size.

Here you go.

You'll still have to host the avatar somewhere like on postimages though.

That's pretty slick, well done.

edit: Looks like the max size to avatars is actually 180x180; could you bump up this tool so the max dimension is 180 instead of 150?

Also, for some reason when I uploaded the tool's result into the SA new avatar form, the preview was blank (as if it wasn't the right format) whereas an image cropped without the tool showed up.

Ok I've bought a Moo Moo custom title, so the OP can count that as another $10 towards the spine fund -- including the $5 that's coming when I change it back after the contest is over.

Yeah, I noticed that as well. The library I was using to handle the cropping sucks. I rewrote it with more manual stuff going on, should be much better now. Might have to Ctrl+F5 to flush the cache and get the new site.

Also, in case it's not obvious, you can zoom in and out by scrolling. Helpful if the image is big, though it'll only do a centred zoom at the moment.

hi I know I'm really late in here for the campaigning time but I wanna talk about Mola a little bit

I met Mola in a shelter back in early 2016. She had just had kittens, and the shelter was having trouble adopting her out. I walked up to the cage she was in and stuck my hand in and she ran up to me and bashed her head against my hand so hard that she almost broke a couple of my fingers bending them backward. In the intervening years she has not changed a bit as far as expressing love; she'll come into bed and wake me and my wife up in the middle of the night just to get snuggles, or walk into a room I'm in and immediately start rubbing her head all over me. It's really sweet.

Here are some pictures from shortly after she came home with me:



She also has some other important hobbies. One of her favorite things to do is watch hockey games when they're on! She'll hop up into my lap and stare at the screen and knead on me.


She's been through a lot. Between being stuck out on the street until the shelter found her, her broken leg (and an accompanying stuffy nose that led to some very loud snoring during recovery) and really bad gum disease leading to getting her teeth taken out, it's been a little bit of a rough ride. But she's come through it all and is still a happy purr factory every day.

Also she is really goddamn beautiful. Here is an image dump, some of which would make pretty great avatars, just throwing it out there:




(this one, she was stoned out of her mind on silvervine, this cat is such an addict)




I could talk about Mola all day but I'm going to cut it short here and just say that I wouldn't trade this cat for the world - she really is the absolute best cat there ever was.

He likes boxes, of course


Going out in the yard


He loves old people


He looks like a cartoon


He doesn't like selfies, though


But will humor you sometimes


He's fluffy


But a normal cat beneath the fluff


Cute since he was tiny


His kids got the crazy from him



He is a magical creature

I am not good with Adobe Photoshop brand image editing software, and I think I've posted more than my share of pictures, so I did buy an avatar with a self-portrait reflected in Yori's eye. If anyone with skill does any good edits, art and/or avatar pics of any of my cats I will save them and change my avatar to a new one of them each month (:toxx:). So maybe not immediate money, but long-term sustainability.

Dee is right that the bet was something of a trap, because Willow is the only one of my three cats who regularly comes out at the monthly mostly-goon game night I host. She just walks around from person to person and meows sadly until someone pets her (but I figured maybe someone else had a similar situation and could be a challenger, but the bet is still open now that I've revealed my hand.) Yori has started coming out on occasion, though mostly just watches proceedings from the bedroom door. Mia hides in the deepest part of the deepest closet, which is funny because when nobody else is around she's the one who is the jerk bully to the other cats. Always trust a bully to go running when the bigger kids come by.
