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.
Beloved Kitty of the Week!
Rescue kitty past, Maarten, was given the gift of a new home in the US after his first home on Sint Maarten was lost to a devastating hurricane.

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:
Thank you for all the images this past week. Some special moods and moments there. And don't forget, I want to thank you for sharing your images and stories, making this worth doing by joining me in celebrating my 10 years managing the thread. :) I'll wait until next Sunday, the 23rd, and put the order in on the 24th. So please pick a color and PM me to let me know where you want it sent. For real, nothing asked in return other than your participation here. :D
Colors: Baby blue (top left), lemon (top right), spruce (lower left), stone (lower right) One size fits all.

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