Keeping out of the sun

I absolutely agree about tortoiseshell cats being the most curious. I've had plenty of cats over the years and the toitoiseshell one we've got now, Sukey, featured somewhere above, is by far the nuttiest and most hilarious I've had and is 100% entertainment value. She's 5 now but we've had her from a kitten but she's still got a lot of kitten mentality.

Our cats have similar name (Sufy and Suky) mine is currently on top of a wardrobe. Don't know what is up there but she does it every day without fail. She paws open the bedroom door and comically looks back and paws it closed

This is our lovely cat, Sukey. She makes me smile every single day of my life, even when I don't see her.

She sleeps in some extraordinary positions

We’ve had a calico/tortie, no longer with us now. Mostly white she used to sunbathe on a hot tin roof until her ears melted and had to be cut off. She developed a form a skin cancer even though we did everything we could to keep her safe from the sun. A proper scaredy cat, frightened of her own shadow. She was lovely but when we introduced another kitten to the house she turned in to a devil for a couple of months. Reduced my wife to tears. . Lived to about 15-16 in the end. I love a moggy, currently got a little black boy, about 7 or 8 years old now, and a stupid but loveable beagle.

I’ve no idea what we’ll do when Arch goes. I can’t imagine the house without a dog though.

Get him stuffed.

Mine will stick the sun for ten minutes then seeks shade all day which is a good thing as they can get injured / ill very quickly in this type of weather. She is a house cat so safe indoors in the sahde.

I’ve never been able to keep a cat in, they always find a way out. Getting them back in when it’s sunny is quite a challenge. My black boy has more sense and stays out of it, even when he’s out.

I have always had house cats. Chloe the black and white cat had a bad leg so could not jump up very far as when she was found she was pregnant with a broken leg. CP fostered here and re-homed her kittens before she came to me, she would go in the garden but could not jump over the wall and she was a sun lover so hard to get in! Catherine was not interested in going out, preferring to sun herself on the window. I had to move her a few times and she would grump!

I know just how she feels but must be worse in a fur coat View attachment PXL_20220718_174114552.jpg

The poor old boy is struggling in this heat today. Glad it’s going to be a bit cooler tomorrow. An extended period like this would do for him I reckon.

That would be beyond terrible. Would it be worth getting one of these portable AC machines? My son's been doing some research on them as his home office, where he has to spend most of each day, has direct sun pretty much all day.

Meet Jack Tummer, 7 weeks old. I adopted him today.

He's a Blue Merle Australian Shepherd, but he ain't no Bluebird.

Fair play, Tummer. Outside of the Swans there is NOTHING of which that I will agree with you... except what you've done here. :flag_us: ... this is from a cat peron.

I've just learned a new phrase in Welsh from my brother in law: "Hogyn da."

Australian Shepherds are some of the smartest breeds around, my personal favorite. He's going to be a credit to the name Jack.
