My cats's name was Tinka as she has been called that by her previous owner. I actually didn't like the name, but since she responded to it and I got used to it, I didn't want to change it anymore.

Had a similar issue with my cat.  Was named Luna by the shelter.  Messes up paperwork to rename a cat though.  Shots and stuff.

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

This is a friend’s cat. I took care of her 2 weeks ago while they were camping.

 

Here’s a video of Pitri rolling outside.

Jen, our housemate, is doing the voiceover. Officially Pitri is Jen’s cat but we all take care of Pitri (and she likes me more than most other people).

PLEASE STOP [Killing] ME I WILL GIVE Y OU ANOTHER DEAL.

For those people that have exactly two cats there is some study or other in which apparently subjects are asked to watch cat videos.  I only have one myself so I can’t do it. there was a thing in Gizmodo.  Dunno if it’s full or over or what

Quite simple. Jen lives with us, like roommates - she has a bedroom on the first floor and the sun room (secondary living room). We live on the second floor (3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom). We share the living room, dining room, and kitchen.

The Cats from my oldest Brother:

9D07BB18-C6EB-45D8-A3F8-7D54D12FA995.thumb.jpeg.63d543986c5980a6d2c48a7525a6b781.jpeg

He's now more of a Cat guy since he wouldn't really have the time to walk a dog at least two times a day plus he lives in an apartment where they don't have access to a garden.

You can take a look at all of the Tech that I own and have owned over the years in my About Me section and on my Profile.

 

I'm Swiss and my Mother language is Swiss German of course, I speak the Aargauer dialect. If you want to watch a great video about Swiss German which explains the language and outlines the Basics, then click here.

 

If I could just play Videogames and consume Cool Content all day long for the rest of my life, then that would be sick.

Mmm… new cat owner. ..  most useful piece of advice..  The thing that took me the longest to really have banged into me with cats and the cause of pretty much every really bad problem I’ve even seen with cats is that the litterbox needs to be scooped and the crumbs from said scooping need to be cleaned up literally every damn day.  Can it go longer?  Yes.  Occasionally.  But that does NOT mean that just because it can go up to, say 3 days with a bit of luck, that you can do that on the regular.  Living on the ragged edge of disaster means eventually you will fall into it. Do it every day though and it’s beautiful. Easiest quickest way I’ve found to do the cleanup is with a dedicated minivac.  The sort made for cars and such.  Running cat litter in such a thing will foul it permanently for anything else, but if you have a vac that only ever does that it doesn’t matter.

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.

“Meow meow meow”  may mean “you have awoken me for the last time.  I’m afraid I’m going to have to eat you now”
