Going to dig a picture up of him and will post it....

9:28pm edit:

Found a SOTD pic within a pic of Seamus, sitting on my 5 1/2 ' by 9 1/2' billiard table( for his size reference), he was a big boy, full of personality, striking resemblance...always wondered if there was a bit of Norwegian Forest Cat in him:

My shaving buddy is a gray haired Manx named Hans. He sits on the floor and watches every lap when I strop. Hans even sat on my lap and watched all of Lynn's youtube shaving videos.

Lovely cat Andrew. My guy is named Rambunctious. I named him that because he is. I call him 'little cat' though, because he is that too. Eleven to twelve pounds at about 11 years old.

Phrank, Norwegian Forest Cats are the greatest. My avatar was Lil Mama and as close as I could research she was a Norwegian Forest Cat. Beautiful temperament, fantastic mama to six kittens (still have 1/2 Siamese daughter, Minnie.) Lil Mama and her black and white 25 lb son, Prince, both returned to the Universe within a few months of each other.

I have always been a dog person, and have had Dachshunds for 62 years. However, I never knew how much of a cat person I was until my 15 year old Norwegian Forest cat started developing kidney problems and had to be put down last May. He was always at my side, next to me at my desk, on my lap, in with me while shaving, or on the bed. I miss him dearly.

Oh my, he was a handsome little guy. I do believe sometimes that cats can sense a human's soul and attaches themselves to a sympathetic person.

They can, but it is more fun when the decide they like someone who doesn't like cats! I remember having a cat (Fred)that loved my dad even though he ignored him and tried to avoid any contact. Fred would follow him all over the house and yard and sleep at the foot of his bed!

I must have a cats soul, I used to do rescues and adoptions for Pet Smart. I helped them rotate the cats in the cages and get them used to human contact, still have 4 from that era, one cat I found under my car in the dead of winter when I lived in ATL., 6 inches of ice and snow on the ground and there is this 4 week old kitten in the only dry spot under my car. I wish I knew how she got there. She is curled up in a box with my black tom cat in front of me right now.

T and O, if I had followed up on my original Siamese Tom that, on meeting my future wife, attacked her ankles with a savage vengeance, my life would have gone down a different path. They sense a hell of a lot more than we give them credit for. I love it when they appear in your life when you least expect it and it may take tears before you know and understand whey they did.
