    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! found refuge here on 9 April 2023.

    Expectant Kitty of the Week!

    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! Remember, all cats, all cameras welcome. Digital cats or silver halide cats, cats of metal, or cats of the wilderness. Big cats, small cats, kittens and their toys. Cats of pen and ink, cats of brush and canvas, from any time, any place. Let the Sunday Cat! be a refuge to enjoy and marvel at the magic of cats, where positive comments abound and constructive criticism is given if requested.

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

    Thread Manager's Corner:
    I hope everyone is enjoying the new thumbnail size that was introduced back on the 20th by the site managers. I know I'm finding the images to be clearer and easier to see what's in them. Unfortunately for Mr. Me, he is not seeing things more clearly. His battle with the virus that is attacking his eyes goes on but his FIV compromised immune system just doesn't seem to have what he needs to beat it back despite all the meds he's getting to help. So not too much in the way of photos from me unless something opportune comes along.

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

    A photo from 2007, Amos and Otis enjoying a bit of sunshine and companionship.
    Both crossed the rainbow bridge years ago but lived long, loved lives. Still, even
    years past, we think of them and miss their company. Our current cats, Mokey,
    Lexi and Arni are in our minds every day and provide us with the companionship both
    they and my wife and I enjoy.

    It is starting to warm up here, and Micio loves the tiled floor to to keep cool.
