Yesterday and a good chunk of today.
He's eating a little bit of his crunchies right now so I used this time to pee.
He has become a lap cat extraordinare.
His skittish temperment has faded so much.
Oops he is back for more lap time💖😻

(47,377 posts)One of mine would walk away from good food to sit in my lap. You can be sure I gave him the food while he was sitting there. Any time, I made a lap, he was in it. Another was so disappointed I was going into the house, she sat by my chair and looked over her shoulder at me. Both of these started out as ferals.

(3,558 posts)I almost forgot to tell you, I'm a grandma again! The daughter and SIL found this precious baby alone, dirty and very cold, abandoned on the street about a week ago. Kitty was very thin and sick with fleas and worms, too. After some good vet care he was determined to be a she. Most orange tabby's are boys, so they first called her Hugh. Well, Miss Tilly is now formally adopted and enjoying lots of love. She is parasite free and gaining weight every day.
Hugs to you and Othello

(3,558 posts)ever seen. And she's so very social, too. She took to walking on a leash and riding in the car right away. Loves to sit in the shopping cart at the pet store, like she's done it her whole life. It's actually quite odd to us. She has the near identical personality of a cat my daughter had that passed over 15 years ago. We are seeing serious evidence of cat reincarnation. Do you think it could be possible?
I have a very logical mind, but I also believe in energy since everything in the universe is energy. When we or they cross over, the energy doesn't stop - it just changes form, from a body into a spirit. So why not take up another physical body? I dunno, I'm having many deep thoughts on this tonight.
Take Care!

(12,906 posts)1st.
My sweet Bigfoot passed from throat cancer. I buried him out by the bush he liked to sit under at my house.
After 3 days of missing him I was ready to sit out on the picnic table near where he was buried.
I gave him a burial worthy of a pharoh I do it for all my kitties. Anyway I was sitting there in the dark crying looking at his grave missing him. Than I saw the
Shadows of the trees move as if there was a light above in the tree so I looked up.
I saw a light ball about 3 inches diameter it was a pale blue not blinding bright more like a gentle glow moving about the trees.
It flew around me for a few minutes than it hovered at face level a few seconds just out of my reach. Then it flew down above Bigfoots grave and drifted into the soil where he lay.
2nd. Story
When Rustle died he had cancer in his chest wall,he had been to the vet 6 months earlier and had a clean bill of health. The vet was upset that his cancer grew so fast. They thought they could take it out of him. He was on the table and the vet called,she couldnt take it out.
I cried my eyes out she said she could close him back up and he might live for a month..
I told her to let him slip away peacefully as I could not let him suffer a whole month after being cut open knowing I would only have a few weeks with him.
I buried him in the yard and after a few days passed I was standing outside in my front yard waiting for program van to pick me up. I saw Rustle or a cat that looked just like he did when he was young and in his prime trying to get inside the house . He ran around a bush near my front door and onto the porch. I ran to the porch to open the door and just when I got to the porch I saw it was Rustle's spirit. He looked into my eyes I said I love you Rustle Bustle Fur Fur forever and he stood there a second and faded out.
There is 1 more story. I had no idea who this cat was.
My ex and I were driving on a road close to my apartment around 10 at night.
We were driving and I felt my chest clench. Sometimes I feel this and a few minutes later I find a cat that has been hit.
I hate when it happens it hurts and I know a kitty has died.
Anyway I saw a kitty in the road hit. We pulled the car into a nearby parking lot.
I started crying,not simple tears but ugly crying. As I walked to move the deceased cat out of the road I saw another cat under the pine trees.
It was a red tabby with white and a light blue collar,I walked twords the cat and he walked twords me I was going pspsps..
I was thinking this cat could be a sister or brother or best friend of the cat hit in the road also I wanted to catch him and keep him safe and find out who the cat belonged to.
I reached down stuck out a relaxed finger for the cat to sniff. Right before his nose made contact with my finger he disappeared. I stood there a second going wtf. Than I went over to the cat in the road
Scruffed him and cried even harder he was still warm.
I hid him in some bushes curled him up like he was sleeping and covered him up with dirt and leaves. My ex had picked some flowers from a nearby embankment.
He had a light blue collar on and looked just like the cat who almost touched my finger and disappeared. I realized it was a cat spirit.
This was the first time I saw a cat spirit of a cat I did not know.
Cat spirits as far as I know either look just like the cat did when it was alive or as balls of light.

(3,558 posts)cat Mr. Ziggy Piggles had a fav toy, a ball with hearing aid batteries in it, that lit up and made chirpy bird sounds. A couple weeks after he passed, I put his urn and his fav toys on a shelf in my bedroom. I took the batteries out of the ball and another toy so they wouldn't get corroded with not being used. About a week passed, and several times the toy ball WITH NO BATTERIES IN IT, lit up and made its chirping noises! This happened about 5 times in all. When it happened, I talked to Ziggy as if he were there. It has not happened again after 5 years now. I really think he was checking on me o4 saying good bye. I'm all teary now thinking about him.
