I love Lucifer!

[yakalskovich]

The most amazing thing about 'owning' a cat (or rather, getting one to live in my flat with me) isn't even the special funny things he does (expect a vid next weekend of Lucifer standing on his hind legs to get treats from my fingers, though), it is simply this:

I turn from the work I am doing at my computer to grab a sip of cold mocha, and this large, prone bundle of fur comes into sight, and I realise,

"There's a puma on my sofa, and he is mine!!"

Even after almost half a year, that sense of joy and wonderment hasn't dimmed.

ETA: Now with 100% more pictorial proof!


From a bit further away, to show his size. In the background, please not essayel's lovely drawing of gil_whimple and asar_suti !


A large red predator, asleep in the sun - cracicotus and wiebke, you know the blanket he is sleeping on and can guess how large his is, by the scale of those squares?>


The more paws, the cuter, as we learn on Cute Overload


'What you doing there with that clicky thing, human?'

And without the silly f-locks, because really, no reason to be private about how cute my cat is, is there?

The one of Lucifer looking at you, that one reminds me so much of our Chama, he had just the same kitten who refused to grow up look about him.

I miss all my babies that have gone on now, and seeing Lucifer growing up just makes me want another one, or two, but, right now is not the time. Maybe in the autumn.....

Yes, getting a late summer kitten like Lucifer was; he was born in August. Good idea.

Uh huh, when I get back from the States, that'll be the time to have found one, I won't have any trips then for the best part of six months, long enough to convince them to stay with me. I hope. Small boy might be a bit offputting, but, I figure if I can live with him, maybe a cat can do the same. Maybe....

I guess the cat will either teach him respect or give up and emigrate.-

I did have one do that, I'm hoping it was because she came along before the small boy.... Maybe if the kitten has to put up with him to begin with, they can learn acceptable behaviour from each other?

Yeah, I know, wishful thinking maybe, but, hope springs eternal and all that!

Cats have different personalities too. Lucifer is almost like a dog in many respects. He fetches things, and sits for treats. And he likes visitors and approaches them on his own.
