    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.

    Outstanding 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

    Last week's purrs, #945 / DPRv #137 / Sunday Cats! #37

    Thread Manager's Corner:
    We have reached the last day of November, and for those who celebrate, the last day of Black Friday shopping. :) If there is any money left, Cyber Monday is coming up! Mr. Me enjoyed his turkey and gravy this past Thursday, so much so that he's now shunning his chicken canned food, or so it seems. However, he very much enjoys a mix of turkey flavored baby food with his dry food, so in order to better accommodate him right now I got some more jars of this new favorite. His chemo from a couple of weeks ago really brought him down and he hasn't bounced back yet, so I'm giving him whatever works. As we head into the last month of the year, we hope all the other kitties and their people stay well and have many good moments together!

    I love the s-shaped pose here with her fitting herself into the space, then looking away from the window, presumably momentarily, for her photo. :)

    Hi,

    Doris is jealous or Doris, Jr. Mom had it sitting on the end table next to her chair. Doris jumped up, sniffed it, knocked it to the floor, and got onto Mom's lap.
