Welcome all to the Sunday Cat!, a weekly online community gathering on a subject of mutual interest, our feline friends. The Sunday Cat! has appeared each Sunday,e 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.
Unassuming Kitty of the Week!
Her inner light shines through. :)

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, all cat fanciers 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. Tales of their lives or adventures. 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:
Last week we had some special images and thoughts on how our kitties want to engage us in their activities. ;) Maybe some more this week!
Last week I also made a special offer that I will repost again here, since I didn't post it straight up it might have been missed. Because we're coming up on 10 years of my managing this thread, I'd like to share the celebratory mood by offering a Sunday Cat hat to regular contributors here. I just need an address sent to me by direct message or in an email exchange so I can add it to the list. The vendor can ship internationally but there are some restrictions so I might not be able to get one to everyone. I don't expect a huge number of requests, but I'd like to have several. (The price goes down significantly with 10, more than making up for the cost of shipping.) I'd like to have all requests by the 21st of August, which should get them to you in September in time to celebrate. :)
Colors: Baby blue (top left), lemon (top right), spruce (lower left), stone (lower right)
