My boy was a stray, and we got him a female companion from the local shelter. He is younger, but bigger.

Double trouble.
We have a cat now. A rescue. I suppose we always had cats when we had the dog. But this one is the most social, dog-like cat I have every encountered. She is excellent company! I cannot imagine what it was like for her while she was going through the process of getting rescued. I think she was at a kill shelter at one point. Then she was in a glass box for an extended time, months and months, at PetSmart. One might have expected her to come out with bonding issues. But she is a confident, loving cat.
I do not think we are in a place where we would not be neglecting a dog, by our standards of neglect!
Yep. He will be 11 months old in a couple weeks, the vet guesses she’s around 18 months. She had a litter while in the shelter (all adopted). She sometimes will not put up with his kitten playfulness at times (for the last 3 months I have had a hard time falling him a kitten- he is BIG), but they are mostly good together. We got her on New Year’s Eve, so still relatively new.
When my beagle got hit by a car, I was sad Just like you, Ambassador.
My last response was meant to be to you, but I responded to one of my posts. Here they are today looking innocent, as one of my wife’s Easter decorations (she is getting ready) sits on the floor. Knowing Shadow (the one on top), he is the guilty party.Double trouble.

She is Tabby- yeah, real inventive, huh? My wife called her that, the granddaughter liked it, so there it is. We got her from the shelter on New Year’s Eve as a Christmas present for the granddaughter (she spent Christmas with her father), and to keep Shadow company when we are not around. She is picking up on his habits, like waking me up too early to feed them their wet food.
Good looking cat.
All our beasties have come from shelters.

Always will. Adopt, don't shop. Chester is the dignified gentleman of our trio. Penelope is the troublemaker, and Percival is the Holstein.

Is Penelope the tabby? She does look guilty.
Indeed she is . . . she's a pistol, alright.
Rest easy, Jax.
She has the same “I don’t care what you think” look that my gray boy above does.
We have the windows open, and the living room window ledge is at least 4 feet in the air. Shadow is around 12 pounds. Like nothing, he jumped up on the ledge and stretched out. He is a strong boy

You know I feel your pain, Aaron. Grandma (Original name Little Bit as she was the runt of the litter) is getting to be about 15 years old now. She did the" gone for a month at a time" thing a few times when she was younger and an outside cat, but now you just about have to throw her out to get her to go outside. Sometimes she will ask to go out and stay out an hour or so, but doesn't stray far. She's sitting at my feet right now.
She may outlast me.
I'm not a Mountain Lion, Dad. Really, really, really I'm not.
My sincere condolences. Losing a beloved pet feels awful. Blessings and light to you.
