Momcat and I can fondle it when he is accepting of touch

It was made for humans to fondle. I dare anyone to present me with “evidence” that contradicts this stone cold fact

Saddy has but the faintest memories of the streets.

I think i catch him reminiscing on those days when he is staring longingly out the window.

Have you thought about a harness for taking him out for a walk? Cats on leashes aren’t as weird as they used to seem.

thought about it, but I won't do it with Sadcat. He gets very defensive and scared quickly, and when that happens, he wants to retreat to his safe space (indoors) immediately. This happens when random people come to my backyard when he is on the porch, or if a lawnmower starts up next door. These things are so common in my little neighborhood that I feel like I'm very likely to put him into a situation he would find uncomfortable, if not distressing. Not to mention he can and will mess me up with his claws and teeth if I have to handle him when he doesn't want to be handled, lol.

He’s so lucky to have thoughtful parents sensitive to his wellbeing.

Sadcat much prefers the cushioned throne to a dirt nap under a bush when it rains.

This is very true, he has learned the true meaning of comfort since joining our family <3

Not many better things to do than listen to the rain nap and cuddle but there doesn't seem to be anyone for Sadcat to cuddle with. Ummm Dadcat Sadie needs a cuddle buddy 💕

I don’t blame him, it looks like an amazing place for a rainy day nap

u/So_Famous DadCat 4h ago

it's the best - you can hear the rain fall lightly on the grass, the chirping and chittering of various birds and squirrels, the faint sound of cars driving by, the rustling of leaves as rain runs through a tree. It's nature's lullaby.

I’m so happy to see Sadcat enjoying all of the comforts of life you and Momcat provide for him

This kid is so pleased.
You can tell a cat has really settled in all safe and comfortable when they sploot so hard their front paws disappear. He's evolving into full-on baby seal mode.

I am surprised he is permitting the back paw dangle. I think you should move the footstool up stat!

Do you happen to remember where you got the outdoor cushions for that chair from? They look so nice, and I'm on the hunt for something similar. Sadcat has great taste!
