:-)) Sunday Cat! #589 January 27, 2019 ((-:

[rodriguezPhoto]

Welcome all to the Sunday Cat thread, brought to you every week, except for a brief interruption in September, 2016, since Anton AK first started the thread on 23rd September, 2007. Management of the thread over the years has been turned over successively to John King, Warriormouse, Robert J, Coldamus, Robert J (with an assist by StanTsui ) and since September 2016, long time lurker, me.

Noir Kitty of the Week!



Leo, just call me by my other name, Sam Spade, Detective. :-D

As said by Warriormouse, "Photos can be more than just art, they can be memories, so come share your picture and stories of your feline companions with us. Come one, come all; all cats and cameras welcome. Add your favourite cat shot to the collection. No time limits, taken any time, any place, any camera."

Posting time for the thread is every Sunday at 0000 UTC. Because this is Saturday afternoon for me, I may sometimes start the thread earlier, later, or even on time (!) to accommodate my schedule. If I am late, feel free to grab the reins and start the next thread. A PM letting me know that you have would be appreciated.

There were so many commendable images last week that it seems unfair to post only one. So here's the link for revisiting them all!

Last week's purrs, #588

But I'd especially like to highlight one, our very special aging gracefully kitties.

Hello All-It's been a while.

Had to say goodbye last week to my 19-year-old Sweetie. She was a good kitty and good friend.





RIP Sweetie.

Regards,

Jolene

Jolene,

I'm sorry to learn of your loss. She looks like she must have been a lovely companion. Savor the memories. Tell the stories. Share what made her so special.

That's a very nice portrait. She's a very pretty kitty and from her look, probably a very sweet kitty as well.

 

[JolieO]

Glad to see Blaze looking well. Still reminds me of my dear departed Sophie.

....the kind words. Fellow pet lovers always understand the impact of these losses on our lives.

So sorry to hear of your loss. She certainly looks as though she was the embodiment of her name.

I really like the first one, of Rory. His somewhat odd placement on the lower right has him looking up, and his crouch makes it look like he's about to leap right into the lens! Very cool. Pandy seems to be making a point again about how flexible kitties are and wouldn't you like to be able to nestle your own face into your back leg! :-D
