He's a real character Lyn. He reminds me of the Puss in Boots in Shrek! Can just see him dressed up in his black hat with feather, swashbuckling boots and sword!! Lovely. Viv.
 
Ha Ha Lyn what a treasure!! Viv is so right are you sure he hasn't been in the movies. Thanks that has made my day...x
 
hes lovely lyn. what a weird position to get himself into but he certainly looks relaxed and happy. chris
 
so pleased ginger is giving you all a giggle...im still trying to figure out how he got in that position in the first place...its like he sort of sat on his bum...fell back and stayed there...lol..
 
Lyn,

I think your ginger cat needs to make an appointment to talk to someone. Slobbed out doesn't describe it. Our black cat Joolz usually looks like there's a bad smell under his nose whenever there's a human nearby. Your cat looks like he just doesn't give a ****.

lol big gee he dosnt give a *****..hes the most laid back cat ive ever seen..he is another waif and stray i took on a year ago..someone left a few doors down and didnt take him with her..took me weeks to gain his trust as he was so scared of humans...now look at him..

I think he is a bit of a poser?. How could someone just up and leave a beautiful cat like Ginger?. Maybe he didn't want to go with her Lyn as he knew you lived just a few doors away?. Lucky puss.
 
hi jean beats me how he could be just left to fend for himself as well..i took him on at about the same time as that little 12 week old came to my back door...im sure all these homeless cats are telling each other about me lol...
 
It's the expression on his face...like..."Yeah, what of it? Got a problem?" We've had several waif-and-stray cats over the past 40-odd years, and in our experience these are the ones who form the best bonds with their human servants. Our dear Joolz was left in a box at a garage with 3 brothers and sisters, and he is the most affectionate and good-natured puss we've ever had. But he is also the most superior cat we've known.......

good on you for taking joolz in big gee..ginger certainly has a way with him and he stays very close to home which is a good thing...will keep you posted on his antics...

lol topsy i forgot about the union sign (came from the union pub gerrard st)..so with that and the empty bottle lying close by i would say he has definately been out on the town all night..by the way that bottle was found in a derilict church in wales and our tom thought it was worth bring home as a momento...hes worse than me for collecting artifacts lol..

What great photo's certainly brightened up my Monday. I would love another cat but my last one lived to be 19 so would be unfair as it might out live me now.

If its not been done before perhaps we could have a pet photo section on here.
 
so pleased my pics have brighened up your day..its always difficult to know when and if to have a new pet...19 years is a long time to own a cat..if you would like to post some of your own pic just start a new thread with a title on this section...thats a good idea...

He's absolutely lovely Lyn. He reminds me of our Archie, who used to sit like an old man laid back in his armchair. You were so lucky to have a beautiful cat like that decide to come and live with you.
 
404211_10150590167845958_570285957_9165282_1982235155_n.jpg this is my cat Troy(i didnt name him) and we think he could be the son of Ginger,what do you think Lyn
 
What a great picture Lyn :adoration: Seems Ginger was determined to get some sun on his tummy. My one cat lies like this and she does exactly what you think Ginger did - sits down, falls over whilst cleaning herself and then can't be bothered to move again.

Ginger is a lovely cat. I don't understand how anyone could just leave him. Luckily he has found a very good home with you.:adoration:
 
Thank-you Jean will have a look at that, Troy is lovely Kelly.

Will look for a photo of my cat and post it soon. When I was at school I went to typing lessons and the lady who taught me was the cat rescue lady and after my hour of typing would help her feed them as she had several she was very kind and took all the strays in.
 
lol polly arnt cats funny...

just to tell the story kelly had a kitten off my friend down the road and we are pretty sure that he could be the son of my ginger as at the time i didnt own him..he didnt have the op until i took him on so he roamed freely lol..

lovely pic kel...thanks for posting it..
 
Roamed freely.......that's a good phrase for it Lyn - lol.
Has he inherited Gingers good looks and laid back attitude?
 
troy sister.jpg i just thought i would post this picture of Troys sister Rosie, she lives with another part of the family , she is inside a hamster cage. Troy is a lovely cat and is really friendly
 
well he all he wants to do during the day is sleep, then some nights has a mad half an hour chasing a piece of paper or a toy round the house,
hesleeps on the top bunk bed with my daughter
 
oh lol kel...rosie is so funny..definately all from the same family i would say...
