...with the cats...
good morning! :hellocomputer:

lately i've been thinking about the things i love the most about each of my cats. most times i think about their personalities, the sweet/silly/special things they do, and such. but lately i've been thinking about their physical selves, the things i love most about each cat.

so for today's Question of the Day......



What do you love most about your cat's physical self?



i'll start!


Mickey :rbheart: : i loved his blue eyes, just gorgeous! and also his round tummy -- was always round, from when he was a tiny kitten all the way through his adulthood. :)

Snick :rbheart: : i loved her blue eyes -- she and Mickey were litter mates, and both had the same beautiful deep blue eyes! and i also loved her silky soft fur...:redheartpump:

Dude, aka Jaspurr: i love his markings, his random white fur splotches with his chocolate brown fur. and his fur is so soft and plush!! :cloud9:

DeeDee: she's our petite panther, so lovely and fur that's sleek and shines. and i simply adore the shape of Deed's head! :hearthrob:

Punky: i love her extra digits (she's polydactyl)! :cloud9: and i love Punky's tail -- it's a 'talented' tail. her tail is so long, and it's able to bend down too, that it can easily touch the back of her head! it also shapes itself into a question mark on a regular basis! :D and her tummy markings.....beautiful tabby spots!


okay, now it's your turn!

Oooo, tails! I love their tails too.

My cats have such weird tails. Carpet and Twinkle are both long haired bob-tails so it looks like they have a little pom-pom tied to their butt. Jiro is also a bob-tail, he's got a stump that he jerks up and down to emphasise his point when he wants to be fed or petted. Toby has a half-length twisted tail. The ginger tabby pattern grows in a spiral around it. Looks like someone was wring his tail out and left it that way. Sophie has a tail that looks like it is trying to be a letter L. Happy's tail bends in the middle and is calico, looks really pretty on her white body.

Mia has a long tail that curls over her back and touches her head. Marley, Henry, Fynn and Little Boy all have long tails that bend or kink at the end. I can tell who is who in the dark by feeling which way their tails kink.

Heidi is known as Heidi Corkscrew for obvious reasons.

:lol:

I love Gracie's tabby markings ! She's seems to have a types - her spotty tummy is cute. She has a very pretty face too - when she was tiny I was convinced she may have been a boy as I thought the holes under her tail were too wide! I'd be chasing her round the house trying to look and hubby used to say: 'she's too pretty to be a boy'. Also her big green eyes ! I was upset when the blue started disappearing however Her green eyes are lush ! To think: I never liked cats before I had one now I'm in love with my fur baby

Gerard Way - His fluffy belly. No other part of him is fluffy bar his belly. You can't tell until he actually rolls over. It's so soft to touch and he loves bing rubbed on his belly. Relaxing for both me and him.

Figaro - Gerard and Figaro are brothers, which look totally different to each other. For Figaro, it has to be his tail. It always bends slightly at the top. He is a big fluff ball compared to the other two, and delight to stroke.

Salem - His bonny little face. He was recently in a RTA, in which he stopped in the vets office for a short period. All the nurses fell in love with his little face. He has big eyes, which combined with the talking to everyone, makes him extra loveable! He has a lovely shiny coat, whereas the other two don't have, and simply looks beautiful.

Patches has a bit of the Oriental build. Long tail, I think if it didn't have the little curve at the end it would drag on the floor. He also has a bit of the wedge shaped head.

Alice has the longer hair with the deep undercoat along the lines of a Maine Coon. Now that she is 14 she doesn't groom as much so I have more work to do but I love her coat.

Carleton - although I love everything about his physical self and his sweet, charming face I'd have to say it's his paws. They have tufts of fur and he curls them up in the cutest, most adorable way. :bluepaw::greenpaw::bluepaw::greenpaw:

Tippy Toes: Her tootsies! As a polydactyl she has six toes on each paw.

Morgana: Her intense elegantly almond shaped greenish eyes against her white fur.

Camelot: His squishyness.

Liffey: Her soft rich orange coat. Plus, it is neat knowing that as a female orange tabby, she is fairly rare! And has a cute dainty little walk.

Where my cats are
Mooch: Her eyes and her socks! One "no show" sock, one "ankle" sock on her front paws. Knee socks on her back. And the little white spot on her nose. :kiss:

Noodles: I love her cranky faces. She's so expressive. I love her blue-grey fur too. :hearthrob:

I love Samai's coat. It's not hair or fur, it's silk. She has the silkiest coat I have ever felt on a cat.
I can not properly put into words, just how silky it is.

yes! cat's tails are just so wonderful!!! :agree:

bob-tails, a half-length twisted tail, a tail trying to be a letter L, a 'talented tail' for your Sophie, Happy's tail bends in the middle and is calico (Wow!! isn't that cool, with her white body), and your Mia is another with a 'talented tail' -- like my Punky!! and Heidi has a corkscrew tail! :clap: truly wonderful, and impressive, tails! :)
