Cherish it. My old men were indistinguishable to anyone but me (they were so different! But to the outside eye, they were the same black fluffy cat). They snuggled and cuddled and window watched and did everything in a pair for almost 2 decades. When they started getting really old, one had some seizures and got a little weird and sickly and the double take ended. Until the last few weeks of the seizure boy's life, when they seemed to reconnect. I had to put the other one down about 6 months after the first, and I miss them both so much.

My sweet boys on the first one's last day.

Everyone. He’s never alone, you’ll see him cuddling the gal trio sometimes or just be in someone’s lap.

Despite me getting two new toms, Poe Panda literally was sleeping ON TOP of that bonded pair SAME DAY as meeting them.

Hes just a little sweetie I guess. The doorbell rings and he rushes to the door to immediately greet the new visitor.

u/microgirlActual 11h ago

Except for my pair of littermates, who want nothing to do with each other.

However, we suspect Siefer ate Skittle's brain in utero, because it's the only way to explain why he is frighteningly intelligent and she's got the intellect of a plant.

15

u/ThatNachoFreshFeelin 11h ago

10

u/microgirlActual 11h ago

That would still require them to work together at least a little. Instead Skittle avoids Siefer like the plague, and Siefer torments her by trying to sniff her, staring at her with malicious glee, and then chasing her while she hisses and growls.

456

u/True-Tell-9636 17h ago

Of course, of course.

The mustache twins are known as Piper (on the left of the image you replied to) and Kiwi (on the right of that same image)

Piper and Kiwi are littermate sisters. Their other sister, the tabby in the middle, is Delilah!

We also currently have their brother after his owner passed away recently, his name is Hollywood (and he is not in any provided image… yet…)

The silly boy on the bottom is Poe Panda! And he’s not related to anyone! He’s just some random guy.

We also took in Hollywoods bonded friend, Ares. They are going to stay with us until we can find them a good home!

As OP, I currently have 6.

This is because I fostered a Trojan horse and kept half the litter.

I originally had 4, but then the owner of one of my ex-fosters passed away, so I took in his 2 cats for him temporarily until I can find them a good home.

Better question is why both iOS and Android change the correctly spelled "cats" to "cars" 90% of the time.

It's not like we type "caf" and it has to choose between two letters nearby, no. It takes the correctly spelled word, and says "nope. I really think that you mean an automobile is using the litter box."

Cats mirror others as a sign of affection. This is why they will get in the way of you sitting at your desk working, they want to mirror what you're doing.

You can do it too: When your cat is sitting and watching something, sit next to it and watch the same thing. Or when it's lying down, lie down next to it and try to copy its position.

My grandparents had gotten 2 cats about 17 years ago, and one of them was always attached to my grandfather. They had to put one of the cats down a few years ago, which made the other cat sad and she started losing a bunch of weight. She became even more attached to my granddad. When he became sick, she wouldn’t allow the nurses near him without hissing, trying to protect him. He passed away January 30th, and she had to be put down 6 days later. She loved him so much.
