Picture of my desktop & my cat (wide image)
linky
The plastic bowl contains water for my cat, since he doesnt like drinking from the dog's water bowl. That is a 19" monitor and my cat hangs over the edges...
:edit: sick of the damn image breaking the page formating.

Actually, my cat would hang over my 19" monitor as well... Part of it is that the fur makes him seem bigger, but cats are actually pretty long.

By 19" monitor, that refers to the viewable distance from the bottem left corner to the top right.Comosicus wrote:19"??? Your cat is HUGE
Honestly that monitor looks a bit too undersized to be 19"
That paw & the tail often make using my computer somewhat difficult. At least he doesnt walk over the keyboard

Not only is he cute, (and oh so fluffy) but he follows me around my home. A very lovable personality too
Why the hell someone would dump him at the cat haven I dont know. My gain

You know, I have a picture of my cat doing the same thing about a month ago. Here it is.
image now doesn't break formatting.
I'm not that dirty normally, I promise.

Great pics, both of you.
Cats and computers don't go together very well but they're incredibly cute when they don't.
The cats, not the computers.
@Mrs Kendall: Be careful what you wish for. Having a cat around when you're at your computer almost inevitably means that the cat will
a) walk across your keyboard,
b) lay down on your keyboard and demand to be petted,
c) actually go to sleep on your keyboard, and quite possibly
d) all of the above.

Awwww! Hands down I'm a cat person. Cats are so awesome. And adorable. And cuddly. And sweet. And-- :catches glare from room:

Amusing that someone noticed. That would be Winn-Dixie brand Dr. Pepper. Winn-Dixie is more of a southeastern US grocery store, with their headquarters in Jacksonville. The stores I've seen are all horribly dirty, but the food is cheap and doesn't seem to have harmed anyone yet.Quadlok wrote:Hey Mitth', who's house brand Dr. Pepper is that?
And I love cats. They're very low maintenance pets. Just make sure they have a place to pee and eat, and they'll do their own thing.

Count me in as another cat person. I have two, and they are both very loving pets. Silver hops onto my keyboard and mousepad often enough, but she'll usually settle for sitting on my lap (although this can make typing difficult).
Very cute photos.

Uh Yeah, I soooo would NOT mind if that happened, I love my cat and she can sit anywhere she likes, even on my tummy while I'm trying to sleep, I love her so much, but she's one of those solitary cats, she'll come to you for treats and attention but other than that she would prefer to sit with the kids or on her own in one of their roomsBatman wrote: @Mrs Kendall: Be careful what you wish for.

I can only conclude you do not play computer games all that much.Mrs Kendall wrote:Uh Yeah, I soooo would NOT mind if that happened, I love my cat and she can sit anywhere she likes, even on my tummy while I'm trying to sleep, I love her so much, but she's one of those solitary cats, she'll come to you for treats and attention but other than that she would prefer to sit with the kids or on her own in one of their roomsBatman wrote: @Mrs Kendall: Be careful what you wish for.

A cat can get away with an absurd number of things with me (hey, I'm canonically a cat person )but nothing ruins a game of Doom or Quake nearly as fast as a cat jumping onto the keyboard and demanding attention.
And nothing can delay computer activities as long as a cat asleep on the keyboard, because who has it in his heart to disturb a sleeping cat?

Sorry, but sometimes I do, in fact, need to drive my car. Regardless of whether or not my cat is using it as a source of shade.

My cat has learned his place.
The one time he tried annoying me at the computer was a very bad day for him. Now he is happy to watch me from a safe distance on his pillow on the couch...

My cat thankfully doesnt walk on my keyboard(nor did my last cat either). As a 7kg cat, he will probably break the damn thing.
Walking in between my keyboard & monitor is a different story and fucking anoying.

Not unless you have a really flimsy keyboard. Trust me on that.ggs wrote:My cat thankfully doesnt walk on my keyboard(nor did my last cat either). As a 7kg cat, he will probably break the damn thing.
@RogueIce: I vote that doesn't count. You merely removed the cat's source of shade. It's not your fault if the cat decides to be disturbed by that.
