Real progress! Our tabby named Sunday and our black cat named Peck are eating together, side by side. Not long ago this would have been impossible. There would have been hissing and fighting. But Sunday has come a long way in accepting Peck and the other 3 little foundlings into her life.
An unexpected but clever development on the Esther front: she's shifted from one purple sleeping surface to another, better lit one. Kind of a loose stance here but a bit of extension and as always with Esther the sweetness is in the details: the little whiskers and ear highlights and such. I feel like there's more potential here. Stay tuned
Good news, unexpected sunlight means Jumpy has attained a very tight tuck position in his favored office-bed window spot. If you're going to contend with a basic approach like this you have the nail the technique and I think Jumpy is showing his veteran experience here, 14 years in and the cat knows how to nail a perfect curl and tuck.

RIP Mars, 2010 - 2024
This morning I found Mars run over by a car. I miss him very much. We got him from the shelter and he showed his gratitude every day. He was cuddly, playful, a rascal and very curious. Wherever I was, Mars wasn't far away and he spent many cuddly hours on my lap. I am stunned and incredibly sad. My heart is broken and I am crushed 🖤
Goodbye Mars, miss you, Thank you for love 😭 😿
Do you have a cat and do you feed it pouches of food and do you tear open those pouches with your hand at the point that is specifically made for tearing instead of cutting them with scissors and does the cat food juice spray across your hand almost every time you open it or is that just me?
@matt I always shake the pouch first to shift most of the food to the bottom. This avoids it being in the tear zone and smushes it up a bit rather than coming out as a slab.
To avoid sounding like a smug git I should add that sometimes I shake too hard and the pouch fails along the tear line as I'm shaking, goes flying and splats against a wall or cupboard as food goes everywhere.
@snail oh, I do the shaking! Quite often, because my cats have so few teeth left, I mush it up in the pouch too before the shake and open. Sometimes it helps, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes I don't do any mushing and pour it out as one slab and make the furballs do some work for once. 😅
Dinner isn’t coming fast enough, and unable to stand being ignored, Roland (Greater London, UK) has decided to ignore his human back. He is now sitting with his back to them.
