"Cat Adventure Video"

- the Irony.

This is Scooter, who is very fascinated by the TV screen showing birds feeding at bird feeders.

That is cute! My kitty loves the Animal Planet channel. She is facinated by dogs on the screen.

.. which was exactly the video that's playing on the TV at that moment.

Are you serious. I thought that was the nature channel or something. My cat was somewhat unamused by the TV. She would ignore it.

That's funny.

This is kinda funny for my first post. I joined the site to learn all I can about physics and math as I have decided to go back to school. My first post I reply to is for a picture contest. My day job...photography. Old habits die hard. Will I ever learn...
Anyways, this is my cat princess staring down her next victim, a fake mouse.(1 of 4 cats I have!)

Great foto!

You have my vote!

 

[Math Is Hard]

awww.. Zapper.. is that your feline? I love how gracefully cats can navigate through complicated territory like bookshelves and entertainment centers without disturbing any ornamental objects (for the most part, anyway. The rare "oops" moments are pretty funny as long as nothing valuable is destroyed.)

R Metzel that is a very beautiful photo. Is she a Russian Blue?

 

[ZapperZ]

No, that isn't my cat (I have no cat in the house since Chuck is allergic to cats). That cat lives in Chuck's mom's house in Iowa City.

[re Chuck: the same "Chuck" as in the old Disney thread]

Gee, and I thought the absence of anything Disney-related in the photo was a clear give-away that it wasn't your house.

You'd think they would have caught on by now, no?

Wow, that's a fantastic photo! I think nobody else will have a chance with something that stunning.

Don't worry, General Discussion is where you get to see that people who love science can still enjoy other things in life too, and don't waste away chained to a lab bench (well, except Gagan A who seems to prefer starving to death over parting from his cherished electronic gadgets long enough to take a lunch break).

Ohmygosh! You're right - what was I thinking!?

My cat can eat all your cats.

The cat doesn't look too thrilled, Integral! :)

This reminds me of a t-shirt that I have. It has a picture of a very grumpy looking cat, with a mug of coffee in one of its paw. The t-shirt reads

"Before my morning coffee, I might as well be a dog!"

:)

That's a near perfect realisation of the classic Garfield-Odie dynamic : the smug and cynical cat looking in disdain at the vapidly cheerful tongue-lolling dog.

Here is Simon lounging by my cousin's pool - a pretty good-natured fellow. A couple of weeks after I did some Simon-portraits for her, she heard him screech and ran out the front door only to see him being killed by a neighbor's Rottweiler.

Simon looks like the long lost brother to my two guys. I think the Siamese/Tonkanese are just gorgeous cats. It's a shame he met an untimely end.

What a beautiful cat, how horrible! What happened to the Rottweiler?

I'm glad I took the series of Simon portraits for her, although it's been two years, I don't know if she can bear to keep them out. He was a pretty cool cat and she loved him dearly.

Nothing happened to the Rotter, and I don't think his owner even apologized.

 

[R_Metzel]

Thank you for the kind words. As far as math is hards question of breed...I have no clue. I found her when she was a couple days old. No sign of dad and mom was laying next to her dead. So I took her home and bottle feed her until she was healthy. Mom was the same color except long haired.

This is a semi body shot. http://www.pngdesignz.com/photos/IMG_0399%20copy.jpg"

 

[Cyrus]

Wow, what a noble cat. That cat looks amazing. She has a flawless coat and egyptian eyes.

That is just so terrible! Rottweilers and pitbulls should really be banned as pets. They pose a lethal danger not just to other animals (cats and dogs) but also young and old people

What a tragic loss. Poor little Simon.

She looks sooooo soft!

 

[Gokul43201]

I've got no cats myself, but I do have several pics of Jack's kitties. I picked this one 'cause it reminds me so much of Hobbes (from Calvin & Hobbes). She's a Siberian, and I believe her name is Anya.

Boy. You almost can't tell the difference between my Wyatt and that Tiger. EEErily similar...

I have a problem with the types of people that often want the aggresive breeds. They are often people lacking the temperament to demand obedient and civil behavior from their dogs. I have known nice people with pit bulls that are the sweetest dogs - you just want to hug them. Not all people who buy pit bulls are nice and spend time training their pets - some want their dogs to be aggressive, and if that's what you want from a pit bull, that's just what you'll get.

Simon was unwanted as a kitten and my cousin's older daughter brought him home, already having named him after Paul Simon, whose music she loves. Her mother raised the roof, insisting that she return the kitten and saying "no more pets". After a couple of days, though, she was right in love with him, spoiling him, etc. He grew up to be one of the most beautiful cats I have seen, with that squared muzzle and lots of muscles.

Okay, this one's not going to be prize-winning, but it's just cute. This is (was) Lucky, a kitten we rescued many years ago. That's his "surrogate mom" that his milk bottle is resting on (a stuffed toy shaped like a cat that we gave him to cuddle with). The new kittens won't come out of hiding for me to get a picture intended for the contest, so I'll have to just enter this old one.
