Sepia Caturday

in ART LOVERS5 years ago

It's #caturday! It's #sepiasaturday! Combine them and we have...

#SEPIACATURDAY!

(And there was much rejoicing)

Unfortunately - for me - my cats today were full of cattitude and being particularly catty and simply not letting me take any photos of them. Luckily - for all of you - I happen to have a host of cat pictures in my archive, several of which lend themselves very well to sepia.

So, without further adieu, I present to you, #sepiacaturday.

This is Bella. I refer to her as "Favourite Cat" because she is, indeed, my favourite cat. I nursed her back to health from near-certain death twice, and we bonded during that time. Now she's just awesome. And very pretty.

This was Bella as an infant. Look at the size of those eyes! This was right before she got an ear infection so bad she couldn't stand up without falling over. Poor girl. Obviously she's better now, so all is good. Between this and the feline infection that occurred immediately afterward, it took me 10 months to pay the vet bills, but I really don't care.

And here is Bella doing what she does best; being really, really cute.

And now the other cats.

Gabby

Gabby is my oldest son's cat. She was there for him in his darkest days when we were trying to work through the worst of his depression. Whenever he was at a low, she was there in his lap. Like Bella, she had gotten really, really ill a few years ago and needed emergency surgery. No, it wasn't cheap and, no, I don't care. Not only would losing her have devastated my son, she's a living creature under my care.

Midnight

And finally, Midnight. Still a kitten. Found under a dumpster at the mall. Now ours. My little house panther. Likes to attack the dog from behind, then flee when the dog gets upset.

Haha, I'm glad you like it! It's one of my favourites. Another I use often with the cats is "snoopervise", for when they come check out what I'm doing when I really don't need them there.


Hey @wwwiebe, here is a little bit of BEER from @qwerrie for you. Enjoy it!

There is something so soothing about cats. I cannot explain it. A dalmatian and 2 cats and when I am feeling tired or not 100%, it will be my little kitty that cuddles up to me.

The dog is too big and lays at my feet. :)

Happy #Caturday in #Sepia you crazy man. I think many people feel the same about these little creatures. And I am glad that you have them in your life. They make life so much bigger.

I never thought I would spend so much money on a pet, but, when they get sick, it is like one of the kids.

Have a great day!

I can't believe I missed your reply!

Yes, cats certainly can be soothing, particularly when they curl up against you and purr. The kitten is a little ball of fury, but even he likes to snuggle and purr at night. He makes the dog jealous. :)

Haha! Howdy sir wwwiebe! Those cats are all adorable. I love the term "cattitude!" lol..that's their normal state isn't it?

 5 years ago 

lol! Yes it is! Another of my favourite cat terms is "snoopervise", which is what they do when they jump into whatever you're working on to take a look at it.

Oh that's a great one too sir wwwiebe! lol. Cats are a great source of entertainment.
