   "I'd rather be fishing"

   Actually, we enjoy boating. We just fish to pass the time. Although the cat preferred that we fished too.

   Have you ever had a cat out in a rowboat? Fun, isn't it? ?

   Buddy was a massive 25 pound cat. He went where we went. He was a people cat.

     Luckily I took Bob Barker's advice and had mine spayed and neutered.

     We lost ours to kidney failure. My wife was sad so I found Elsa the lap cat. They make life interesting.

     I currently have three after adopting the last one Saturday. Two are crazy one is a calm lap cat.

     @That_One_Guy That was how we got the white cat Jasper. When Buddy died (cancer), we tried to find another. There was a 2 year waiting list for breeders in other provinces. It was so long & complicated, we were all just grieving the loss, Maya was sad and lonely she'd never known any other cat but Buddy, he raised her since her eyes opened. So we got Jasper, my wife's choice, a totally dysfunctional cat in all ways, abused, distrusting. Patience & years to bring him around. Then Teddy ruined it

     I'd like a big white Maine coon sometime. I never seem to come across one.

     @That_One_Guy HA! This was a Maine Coon, the mother had kittens in the woods. My wife went to safe one before Coyotes got them, there was a sister rescued too but we don't know where. But he grew so big (not a strict diet) and lived the life of Riley. We have boxes and tunnels everywhere. My daughter had a padded-lined cardboard box for her doll bed. One cat likes it, so we kept it. Still used often, more than 30 years now

     You gotta be kitten me! ?

     My wife and I had a 23-25lbs Siberian cat named Buddy! He got the name coming home from adoption when he started crying I kept calling him buddy, it stuck.

     Here's Buddy in my daughter's fort probably 6 years ago.
