What type of toy is that so I can buy my one for my cat?

Found it: it’s the SmartyKat Hot Pursuit electronic motion cat toy. Looks like Amazon and Chewy sell it

That's it! Apparently it's on sale right now too, which it wasn't when I got it. We had that thing for like a year before we finally assembled it.

How old is Murphy? My old Murphy just turned 20 last week.

We are guessing our Murphy is 20 too. We adopted him in May 2005 and this is what he looked like:

Which is a crazy coincidence btw! Please pay the Murphy tax. :)

I've not long signed up and have no idea how to post an image. Any advice would be appreciated.

I use boost and for me it's just like sharing an image when texting.

I use eternity and that doesn't seem to be an option

Downloaded Boost. Bonus Parsley.

Yay! Hi, Murphy and Parsley! What an adorable pair. How old is Parsley?

Murphy's always the highlight of my day!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I hope that's his real name, Oldmancat Murphy

We used to joke that his first name is Goddammit because he was always the most mischievous of the 3 cats, always the one stirring shit up.

Now he's the only one still living and he's so old we let him get away with almost everything.
