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.
Tipsy Kitty of the Week!
Doris, either on a kitty high or doing a good job of imitating it! :D

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 ready to rock and roll with Doris! :D

Thread Manager's Corner:
It's been a busy week for me, but not for Mr. Me. He remains stable and seems to be doing just fine, although I wish all his fur that got shaved due to various treatments would grow back faster! My attention was more on finding all the missing pieces so I can setup a new computer with the software, or similar software, to what I had before I accidentally destroyed my old computer in January. That computer was from 2013. The one I fell back to is an even older one from 2010, and it just wasn't cutting it. I tried to like Mac, but it isn't happening except for Lightroom, so I'm keeping it for that, although I'm having problems getting Bay ROES installed, which I use to order prints. An important part of the recovery was that I restored all my Sunday Cat! bookmarks which had been on the old computer. (I have the old drive, even though the computer is kaput, and found out how to fish them out.) Now I again have everything back to day one in 2007 and updated right up to last week. Hooray! Just in time as we start another September, about to close out year 18 of Sunday Cat! with year 19 on the horizon. :)
