1. Cheetos do have lots of preservatives. |
|
I've never seen such an old cat before. He seems to be rather healthy for 36.

They got him out of a bad situation, and the rest of his life appears to have been smooth sailing. Wish my current pair would live as long!

8. jeez, that cat is older than me |
|
and I was born in 1973. I wonder how they can prove he is that old. Sure, they have the photograph but the cat is black, it doesn't have any distinct markings that I saw. My cats are 14, 14, and 10. They are starting to show their age by sleeping a lot more. I can't imagine them living that long.

10. I expected him to be a Siamese.... |
|
I've heard they live longer and not only do I have one that is 19, but I know someone who had a Siamese live to 27.
He's a beautiful cat. And people like Al and Mary are one of the reasons I like living in MN!

11. Same here- all the truly "old" cats I've met were Siamese. |
|
And when I say "old", they were 20 to 25. And they didn't look half as good as "Baby" there.
36? That's amazing. He's a regular cathusela!

13. THANKS! I had my doubts about leaving that in there. |
|
It didn't look as good to me on my screen as it sounded in my head; I almost edited it out. Glad you liked it!
