We have some new visitors to the chat room this Caturday, and here’s reader Candi G. to introduce them:

Handsome dudes Griffey (tiny fluff ball) and Ichi (flame point) were recently adopted separately from our local shelter. They immediately became BFFs.

Welcome to a very floofy Caturday as reader Sowmya D. shares her beautiful fluffy friends:

Here again we have Princess Ekaterina Velikaya, gazing upon her realm from the top of the cat tree — and Nikolai Devinovich being a weird twisty Orange Boi.

Welcome to the Caturday open thread! Today we have a visit from Skye, who is a model of persistence where food is concerned, explains reader Georgiana Y.:

In the evening we always eat on tray tables in the living room while watching the news. My husband spoils Skye and gives her bits of food from his plate depending on what we eat, that night he was eating shrimps covered in batter so not suitable for cats so she didn’t get any but not for the lack of trying.
