The number one thing you’ll be watching for is changes in eating, drinking, and bathroom habits. Super common for older cats to develop kidney issues/failure with age so if they’re drinking a lot more than usual or using the bathroom a ton, that’s cause for concern. Arthritis also makes it hard to keep the nether regions clean, so UTIs can also pop up from time to time.

As with getting older yourself, be on the lookout for any new lumps, bumps, or growths as they could be cancerous. Especially if they change shape of size.

Try to keep the nails trimmed. Older cats exercise and scratch less so their nails can get too long and become ingrown. It sucks for them and it’s a trip to the vet for you.

If they’ve got longer hair, paying a groomer every once in a while for a trim can be worth it. Long haired cats already get mats more often, but doubly so once they’re old.

Be sure you’re cleaning their teeth regularly. Brushing sucks for all, but even some finger wipes are better than nothing. Otherwise, you’ll be eyeballing an expensive bill for anesthesia to clean dirty teeth and remove the ones that are too far gone.

We’re super lucky with him because he’s actually really healthy for his age. I think he won the generic lottery or something. He’s a very confident and brave cat so it’s not often he’s stressed. I reckon that also has something to do with it.

Anyway, I hope this helps :)

Thanks Google.

I should probably just install Lineage already.

This would rock as a cross stitch pattern.

Made my day lmao

You’re taking me back to 2005 with this one, and I am not complaining.

It was moving at the time of the photo. They poop, it turns over, and these two are utterly mesmerized by it.

They’ll come tearing ass from another room if they hear it just to watch.

Maybe half of one, tops.

One of my favorite movies that my wife refuses to watch with me because it always makes her cry.

I mean, me too, but it’s good to cry every now and then.

I present a similar picture of my Thorin.

He got brushed, and I put the hair on his head.

It’s not the cub scratching your face that’s what you need to worry about.

He is always getting into trouble. He’s 11 years old, and while age has slowed him down some, it’s not made him less curious.

I hope not. We already have a serious mouse problem as it is.

Of course. He headbutts everything though so it’s nothing special

He LOVED the box.

This was more of a one-off. My wife wanted the projector for other projects, but she was testing it out here. We usually throw these vids up on the TV, which is just out of reach for the both of them. But the TV is only 65". The projection was probably close to 12’ diagonally.

Anyway, to answer your question directly, none.

Still rocking my Nintendo Wii! I mostly play GameCube games on it, but I do have Brawl, Mario Kart, Skyward Sword, and Galaxy 1 & 2. For GameCube, I have Sunshine, Wind Waker, Twilight Princess, NFS Underground 1 & 2, Double Dash, Thousand Year Door, Melee, Luigi’s Mansion, Animal Crossing, and Burnout.

It’s also got Homebrew so I play SNES on it too. Been running Earthbound lately. I loved Undertale, but all this time, I’ve never played Earthbound, despite knowing about it for the last 20 years. I even snagged NES Monopoly, which is the only way I could get my wife to play Monopoly with me lol

Anyway, I needed batteries for my keyboard and it takes some 8 hours to charge them (good old nickel batteries, hey?) so I robbed the batteries out of my Wiimote. I need to put them back already.

Well, according to taxonomists, all carnivores are either cats or dogs.

Carnivora are divided into two suborders, the Feliformia, containing the true felids and several “cat-like” animals; and the Caniformia, containing the true canids and many “dog-like” animals.

Can confirm: He stole my girl.

He stole me too.
