    @aprazer402 Cats and dogs are both pack animals. Neither, in my experience, has a particular affinity for its own breed, but if their humans are gone for long periods of time, a companion is nice. My dog and cat now get along well and even play sometimes, although Figgy (the cat), at 12 months old, absolutely whomps Louis at 17 years old.
    Cats do a lot better alone, because they are so independent, but any living thing needs love, and lots of it. Just my humble opinion.

    My cat plays with the dogs.
    Every morning all three run down the hallway together for breakfast.

    We've had up to four cats at once. With that group, none of them were siblings. I'll say that before we picked up the fourth, three was a bad number. One was always the odd man out. We now have a pair of sisters. They're great! Out of all of them, I feel the females have been more affectionate toward us.

    I remember that parking garage. My brother had one and it was pretty much in every single waiting room we went to (family Dr., Dentist, hospital...)

    Oregon zoo. Currently working on the polar bear exhibit. The elephants are about 50-100ft from my crane. In the mornings, before work starts, I talk to them and then they follow me around and watch what I'm doing. They are clearly boored.

    Resting in the sweet spot listening to some tunes as she had a rough weekend stalking the pesky squirrels.

    Not much stalking today as were getting some rain and since her Majesty does not like getting her feet wet, they get a pass today.

    Around 5am, Payton, who is the social misfit of the bunch has to be escorted back to her room (guest bedroom).
    Shortly after that, a few of them will start their morning "hunting" rituals which leads to us no longer really being able to sleep so one of us will get up and feed them their morning meal.

    After the morning meal, there is some zoomies for about 15-20 minutes and then naps for the the next 5-6 hours.

    Then the cycle repeats for evening meal.

    Vincent and Diamond have a sumo wrestling match while meals are being prepared with Diamond usually coming out on top...usually quite literally as she will sit on Vincent to keep him from getting back up and attacking.

    Wilson and Anthony will try and imitate them but Anthony has no teeth and weighs about half as much as Wilson while Wilson doesn't really know how to "fight" and usually ends up laying on his back with Anthony in a headlock while ferociously bathing Anthony's head.

    Penny just disapproves of everyone and everything...she is our HR cat, after all.

    Angelica would like nothing more than to watch the world burn because then it would be warm and she likes laying on the sun-blasted mid day driveway (only time she goes outside).

    What about Baron Vincent VonMew?

    He sounds like the life of the party! 🎉
    Where’s the KABOOM?!?! There’s supposed to be an Earth shattering KABOOM!!!

    Not exercising, just jumped up because my servant threw my fuzzy toy up here and thought it was funny enough to capture. I am not amused.

    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

    Before I got my cats I had three dogs at the same time for a few years. By the time I bought a digital camera they were getting up there in age. While gone now they are in my memory.
