Hi sid 🙋‍♂️

Love seeing older ladies in here! Mine isn’t this old yet but love my lady cat as she starts to get a little older and wiser.

[-] Meowyjsmokes@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I love seeing how much she has changed over the years. From rambunctious kitten, to bratty teen, reserved (but affectionate) adult, and now shes more curious, playful, and talkative than ever, I feel like Im watching her grow. I just wish cats could live forever.

They can live for a surprisingly long time if you're really lucky. I looked it up when I got my first cat and the record is 38 years!

She’s a petty lady. Does she rule the house?

[-] Meowyjsmokes@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

100%. no one else dares to challenge her. i also firmly believe she has selected our second oldest lady cat as her successor, because shes the only cat in the house that syd will share her food with lmao

Is she related to Syd Barrett 8)

Wonderful cat. I've thought about taking my cats outside, how do you ensure they don't run off without a leash? We tried a harness and leash but the cat didn't enjoy it, at all.

Every cat is different, mine just happen to be particularly well behaved, but it did take some time to teach them boundaries of the yard. We just slowly let them out and followed them around, rounding them up as needed until they got the gist of what is and is not okay. They come when called, but all they really do is eat the grass and watch the birds lol. I've tried a harness before because Id really like to be able to take two of them to the beach, but they both hated it.
