I was beginning to think that I would have to make a post in the Crossing the Bridge forum, as Grumpy had not put in an appearance for the last eight days, whereas he normally came to feed at least twice daily. Our neighbors hadn't seen him either. I had to run to the bank this morning, and when I got back, there he was, sitting on our deck. What a relief it was to see him.

Good thing you did not jump the gun on this. We are glad that he's back!

Captains other brother from a different mother LOL (I just love saying that - I get such a bang out of the fact that since we got him we're seeing orange marmalade cats EVERYwhere :thumbsup: )
Did you know -- undoubtedly you do -- that there are no solid orange cats? Some come close, but still there are always stripes to be found on every single orange cat in catdom.

OK, I have a question...IF I had the money, would I want a toyger, or a lykoi? This is mostly rhetorical, because I'd end up with the scruffiest, most bedraggled cat at the rescue, and adore it!

Such precious little mini-tigers!

But then, who could resist living with a little, purry werewolf!

Good. As long as one cat is in need of a loving forever home, those who truly love cats will adopt THEM, not the "purebreds" who also frequently come with more health problems.

When my husband and I went to a cat convention when we were engaged, we saw and got to pet a lykoi! If I recall, the fur was super soft.

tarasgirl06 tarasgirl06 , I agree, which is why it is rhetorical. I just think they are fascinating cats. And, there are several breeders of Toygers who donate a percentage of the cost of each kitten to tiger preservation groups. Which is kinda cool. The Lykois, I just like the look of! And they are a natural mutation, so...I might run across that mutation in a shelter! If I do, and the cat and I click, it would be a done deal!
