Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / November 2004oscar and eros pics
At nobody's request and merely due to my own vicarious vanity, I put some pictures into a temporary album for anyone who's interested. None of them are particularly great shots, but maybe it will help to put a face to the names: http://www.bounceswoosh.org/rpca-2004.11.22/  Signaturemonique >At nobody's request and merely due to my own vicarious vanity, I put some >pictures into a temporary album for anyone who's interested.

When I saw the picture of you reading in bed with Oscar on top, I thought of how lucky you are. My Betty would never leave me alone if I tried to read in bed like that! If I'm in bed, she insists that I be flat on my back, unless I'm holding her in my arms. > Eros looks so sweet, and Oscar is so regal!

They also sleep on the flatter bits of the bed, when I've been disturbing them by moving or turning over.

Oscar loves to be near us, but she can't seem to decide whether she likes being petted or not. And holding is something that she sometimes tolerates because she knows we like it. I'm jealous you have a cat who likes to be held! I told Oscar someone said she was "regal," and she just sniffed. She didn't need to be told she's the queen! Signaturemonique > At nobody's request and merely due to my own vicarious vanity, I put > some pictures into a temporary album for anyone who's interested. > http://www.bounceswoosh.org/rpca-2004.11.22/ Hey, we all do this here - we love to show off our "kids" to each other. So by offering an unsolicited glimpse at your kitty pictures, you've just proven that you fit right in here. :) They are both beautiful, by the way. I'm afraid to enthuse too much about Eros, since you are grieving him, but he really is a beautiful boy. I have a weakness for shiny black cats. Oscar is quite pretty, too, she has a really sweet face and luxurious fur. They're nice shots, by the way. We're all over the map in terms of photo quality. Some of us are professional photographers, or very avid amateurs, and the quality of the photos is stupendous. Most of the photograhy from this newsgroup is average-quality and decent - and we're much more concerned about the content, anyway. I have a really bad camera (but can't afford a new one right now), and I apparently have no gift for that medium, so the pictures I take are of questionable quality. But people are very nice about it and still ooh and ahh over my beasties. :) Joyce > Hey, we all do this here - we love to show off our "kids" to each other.

I have none from this year, at all. > They are both beautiful, by the way. I'm afraid to enthuse too much about > Eros, since you are grieving him, but he really is a beautiful boy.

And the more people who say so, the more confidence I gain that he will find a family quickly. > They're nice shots, by the way. We're all over the map in terms of photo > quality.

From the average score of the pictures, it really is true that all cats are adorable, at least to cat people. Signaturemonique > http://www.bounceswoosh.org/rpca-2004.11.22/ I want Eros!!!

Where are you? He is currently at the BVHS in Boulder, Colorado, and would love to have a happy kitty home. http://www.boulderhumane.org/ They don't have his picture up; he was supposed to have his evaluation this morning, so I'd imagine it should be up soon. On a sidebar, I note there are cats "Mary Kate" and "Ashley", who look to be littermates. This just disturbs me. Isn't it animal cruelty to associate those poor cats with those names?

There's a congressman in Brazil you might want to talk to. :) Joyce PS - in case you weren't reading the newsgroup when this was posted, a congressman in Brazil recently tried to introduce legislation making it illegal to give pets human names, because he thought it would give children low-self esteem issues to share a name with an animal. Now, the other way around could actually *be* a problem. If I were a cat, I'd be extremely incensed to be named after the Olsen twins!! > > On a sidebar, I note there are cats "Mary Kate" and "Ashley", who look to > > be littermates. This just disturbs me.

I hadn't heard of that. That guy must not have much of importance to worry about if that's his major concern. Hey, my family has a long-standing memory disorder. We rattle through names till we find the right one. My dad will address me as my mother, several aunts, my brother, and my deceased dog before getting my name right. It's pretty funny, and I've never felt slighted for it =P Signaturemonique >> PS - in case you weren't reading the newsgroup when this was posted, a >> congressman in Brazil recently tried to introduce legislation making it >> illegal to give pets human names... > I hadn't heard of that.

My grandfather [raised four kids of his own and four stepkids, then helped raise me] does roll call: "PeggyMariePatSeanette" :-). DFIL has been known to call me Ruth [his daughter] or Mary [his wife] before getting my correct name, and DMIL routinely swaps names between her sons [she'll be looking right at Bob and call him Glenn, for example, when DBIL isn't even there], occasionally throwing in Max [DFIL] or Whit [DMIL's psycho brother]. At least they don't usually throw in pet names :-). When in multi-pet situations, I've switched names. I think it especially annoys Felix when I accidentally call him by the bird's name. :-) Signature"The universe is quite robust in design and appears to be doing just fine on its own, incompetent support staff notwithstanding. :-)" - the Dennis formerly known as (evil), MCFL > Where are you?

I can see why you are sad to let him go, but I'm sure that such a sweet cat will have no trouble finding a new home. Oscar is very pretty, too. There are loads of pics of my cats at the links in my sig. Just so you know. ;o) We don't need any excuses here to post cat pics (at least that's what I keep telling myself).
