:-)) Sunday Cat! #880 August 25, 2024 ((-:

Welcome all to the Sunday Cat!, a weekly gathering of image makers on a subject of mutual interest, our feline friends. The Sunday Cat! has appeared each Sunday, except for a brief interruption in September, 2016, since Anton AK started the thread at DPReview on 23 September 2007. Successive thread managers have been John King, Warriormouse, Robert J, Coldamus, Robert J again (with an assist by StanTsui) and since September 2016, former lurker, me. When DPReview was threatened with closure in March 2023, the last regular Sunday Cat! there was hosted on 2 April 2023. After taking a leap of faith, the Sunday Cat! landed here at its new home on 9 April 2023.

Confined Kitty of the Week!

This week Mr. Me returns the favor and recommends Yumos for the kitty of the week, although Yumos looks a little like he's thinking, "Don't Fence Me In". :)

As said by Warriormouse, "Photos can be more than just art, they can be memories, so come share your pictures and stories of your feline companions with us."

“Official” posting time is every Sunday at 0000 UTC. Because this is Saturday afternoon for me, posting time may vary to accommodate my schedule. I'll try to post a message if I know I will be very late. Anyone anxious to start the new week is free to do so. But if you do, please PM me so I don’t accidentally double post.

Come one, come all! All cats, all cameras welcome. Images from any time, any place. Let the Sunday Cat! be a refuge where nice comments abound and only constructive criticism is given when it's requested.

The Sunday Cat! is now open for business. :D

Last week's purrs, #879

Thread Manager's Corner:
It was a quieter week than I hoped it would be, but at least Mr. Me gave me a little of his time so I could capture a few images of him. :) However looking back at DPR, talk there also notes how quiet the forums are now, so there may be something to the trend. It's also summer, and folks take off for a time, usually without their kitties, so maybe the trend will change. Meantime, the new week begins!

Though small in size, the imprint they make on our lives is huge.

Looks like Tiger might have been grooming and then something caught his attention. Love the moment, the light and the wonderful detail here. :)

He spends a lot of time grooming...a very handsome boy (and he knows it)

A new bed for Micio.

una variedad de los gatos en la finca........a Variety of the cats on the farm.....

two of Lucas and one of the new mama cat that i brought to the farm......

It looks cozy and secluded!

My tuxedo cat Palmer, who passed away just before the summer, used to like to curl up on top of the back cushions of the sofa. The cushions are filled with feathers, so they make themselves into a nice comfy cat shape. :)

That very narrow patch of white on Lucas' nose makes him very identifiable. It looks like he is in his secluded spot in that first image. And in the second, the way he strolls about, it looks like he must be property manager now at the farm! :) With a new mama cat present I hope we will get to see some kitten photos at a future date. ;)
