Fixed it because I wanted to witness the orange menace.

I also have an orange menace...I think it must be a genetics thing. Now, I know all cats are literal arseholes, but orange/ginger ones are definitely menaces
Silly Rabbit, don't you know scooped mids are for kids?

Seriously. I love cats, but I've found a few things. American gray/white cats are usually really sweet, and gray tabbies love to play and be vicious little shits.

I have a part-Siamese and a tabby and the tabby is usually the quiet one. The Siamese can definitely be an asshole, but she’s also the most affectionate cat I’ve ever had. Smart as hell too.

My old girl Poptart was that way too. Gray and white American long-hair (I think), and super sweet and very smart. Dogs are cool, but I really love cats.

Male or female? I had an orange creamsicle cat just like this one that was the sweetest and gentlest cat I've ever owned. Didn't even realize. she was the alpha for years until she started getting sick and the other cats would all wait for her to eat first, even if they were all sitting around while the food was placed out and the ginger wasn't.

Male, I guess. Something like +80% of orange cats are male.

maybe it's a male/female thing then? or I just had an anomaly?

Amelia Pond is an orange girl and she is the sweetest, funniest, most loving cat I've had.

It's not an offset, but Billy never ventures even close to any guitars so I had to capture this moment

Lieutenant Dan is a tripawd, so I guess that makes him offset:

Bronwyn is more like Les Paul Black Beauty: small and decidedly not offset.

Lt. Dan looks like an affable fellow! I want to squeeze him too. Bronwyn is... art. That cat is beeeyoootiful! Damn! So poised with such a sleek coat. That cat I don't want to squeeze and knead, that cat is enough to just look at. A stunner!

My cat pals were happy to see me, I was gone for four days. Sorry no pix right now. At least not with offsets, sorry, board!
