Strays are often the best; they've been about, developed a bit of character.  :cool:

My cat was a stray.  He was hanging around a school in rural Alberta when my wife was inspecting school buses.  The principal kept trying to convince someone to take this kitten away - eventually my wife did and gave him to me (we didn't live together at the time).

He's the friendliest cat of all time - never met a lap he didn't want to climb on to.   :)

I've been showing the cats the dead mice I've caught in the traps.  The cats know there is something they are suppose to do with mice, but they have't figured out what yet.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

My cat is very friendly.

With some, you know, quirks.

If you pay 'em per "dance", is it really "dating"?  ;)

My cat is sitting next to the PC.  She approves of a cat megathread.

Has anyone already commented on the painting of a cat on the back of Tonto's cat?

That's not my cat, just a picture of a random cat (well, I suppose not all that random).

And now, some Russians even CdM could love....

http://www.5-tv.ru/news/50155/   (in Russian, but if you want to see the video anyway)

The executive summary/translation for most of you folks:  Homeless cat (ultimately named "Captain Flint") found with broken, decaying rear legs (probably hit by a car)...brought to a vet, who initially think they would have to amputate.  One vet decides to try to save the legs, and assembled a homemade device to allow the cat's legs to rehabilitate (kinda like from Forrest Gump, except I think these were actually fused to the leg bones), and after several months, cat has mostly recovered, and the braces were taken off.

Seriously, in some urban areas (especially Moscow), I think Russia has come quite a long way in the last 15 years, especially with the help of oil/gas money.

Out in the bush, and in many other major cities (that don't benefit from the gas/oil boom), I am sure shit still sucks.
