If you're a cat lover like me, you can probably talk about cats all DAY LONG! Particularly if you're talking about your own cats!!

And pictures....you never have too many pictures!!

In the USA, cats are the #1 pet choice. Unfortunately, they are also one of the most marginalized species when it comes to neglect, abandonment, and abuse. So this post and contest is specifically for them!!

How It Works

  1. Anyone who has a cat can play!

  2. Upvote and resteem this post!

  3. Post one picture of your cat in the comments. Only one entry per cat. So. If you have 5 cats, you can post 5 different pictures: one of each cat, BUT only one!

  4. This contest, again, is for cats and pictures of cats only.

  5. This contest will run for 7 days. At the end of 7 days, no more entries will be accepted.

  6. There will be 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners. First place will receive SBD, amount depends on how much this post earns! Second place will receive an upvote on blog entry of their choice. Third place will have a post of their choice resteemed.

  7. All winning decisions are final and made by me!!

OK READY? SHOW ME YOUR CATS!!

So cute! He looks SOOO much like my kitty! :D

He has a very sweet face! I did have two ginger girls, sister's, who were Scottish fold mixes but I had to re-home them. Long story.

his name is wawa, he is nomore

No more? Did he die? 😪😥

Such big eyes n so pretty!!!

I love it when they do this!!! Nikko is completely infatuated with water!! I had another kitty, Sterling, who lived water too!! He would play with it- a slow stream running in the sink! But he didn't like getting wet! Only his paws n such and if it was his idea!!

LOL.... that's sweet.
they can sleep anywhere , can they?

I love the little pink tongue out like she's thinking really hard!!

Superrr cute!! Looks like you just got 2 new babies!!

On the top is my cat. On the bottom is my sister cat. So I'm just running with the top one in the competition.

I can't get over the face of the wee one in the bottom! So tiny! And I love black n white cats!!! They are the best!!

This is Helith - probably Cleopatra's father. He didn't like his picture being taken!

They never wanna cooperate!! Ack!!

Of course not! I consider cats to be amongst the most difficult of subjects!

Yep. Agreed. The thing is to catch em off guard!

This is Pandora, Cleopatra's aunt.

I'll leave it at that for this one. Thanks for hosting! I hope you get a bit more attention.

How many do you have in total? I used to have more then two but my health issues made me have to find new homes for the others

Currently, I don't have any living with us - though some belonging to us remain with a family friend two states away.
We also had to move internationally and it seemed best to rehome them. :-(

I know where Cleopatra is, but that's it. Helith disappeared in 2012 about the same time as his semi-feral brother - there were rumors in the area that ginger cats were being targeted deliberately.

At one point, we had six adult cats and some kittens around - the kittens were always in very high demand in the UK - in part due to the charities being too fussy about the new homes for their precious kitties. (People were being rejected for having children, or being in rental accommodation.)

Oh she is lovely!! Looks like she has some Siamese in her!😊

I'm not aware of her ancestry before we had her.

So are u in the states now?

Yes, for the past few years now.

But no kitties? 😟

Not allowed them where I am living right now. :-(
Otherwise, I'd have some of the kittens I raised for someone else two years ago.

Dying to know what you mean by hair fettish? I've had kitties that "groomed" me lol

He crawls into my hair. He tries to climb in the middle of it. It goes further than grooming. I will try to get some video of it sometime so you can see what I mean

Lol. That does sound like a hair fettish!! Apparently your hair is a comfort to him! Cats in shelters that are scared and insecure, will climb into their litter boxes to surround themselves with their own smell. Sounds like he's doing that with your hair! You apparently are much loved and a valued member of what is his clowder

Oh, this was such an awesome idea for a post! I just had to show off my little kitty, Gizmo:

He's very handsome and I ❤️👍😻 his sweet lit'l orange Chaplin 'stache!!! I can tell he is Mama's boy!!

Her name is Cookie! I found her in Croatia near by the beach in bushes. She was all by herself, crying and very exhausted. We took her home with us and soon she will be 1 year old 🐱 she was a great help and distraction when I was writing essays 😄😋
