It's so funny....sometimes he sounds like a quiet buzz saw! and sometimes he'll twitch, I think he's dreaming!......It's really hysterical because I'll laugh even when I'm trying to fall asleep!

Yes, my cat sneezes too...several in a row. Nothing adorable about it as with your cat though.

I'm not much a animal person...at least in having them. But this Tabby found me, and he was so sick, cold and wet. It was snowing awful and sooo cold. Found him wrapped under the barbecue tarp. Vet said he'd been on his own for a long time. His paws were actually callused! and loaded with fleas and earmites. So I took him in and he's been terribly spoiled since. I pretty much give him whatever he wants. My landlord said "That cat knows it hit the lottery!" LoL...

Surprisingly he's quite the gentleman cat....never meows outload but more under his breath like a soft gurgle. When he wants something he;ll stand where he' accustomed to getting attention he seeks...even sitting in the recliner and staring me down when he wants to watch a movie!

He's been a joy to have! I'm sure you feel the same about yours.....

Every day I had with my girl I treasured. I’ve had two cats in my life, both were rescued from shelters and considered impossoble to place. My tabby was rescued by her foster mom about a week before Christmas, she was with kitten. After her kittens were weaned and adopted out, she never took to the foster home. I guess it was because there were so many other cats there fighting for space, and every weekend she would be taken to open house adoption events which she did very poorly at because she was frightened,

Her foster mother found me through something I had said at a real life function about being a foster child in the system, and how wonderful it is to be adopted, I had just lost my first cat. That weekend I went about 20 miles out of my way to adopt her, and had her for 11 wonderful years.

It took her about six months for her to really trust me and begin to love me, but once she realized I just wanted to love her and spoil her, we became the best of friends.

She went to the Rainbow Bridge on New Years Eve. I’m still mourning. Right now I’m cat less.

I love your story. Give your boy lots of kisses from me,
