Sorry to hear about Toby. Sounds like he had a lot of good years since you took him in.

I’ll miss letting him ride around the house on my shoulders, he loved that almost as much as laying on the screened in porch.

Sad to hear, I have a soft spot for ginger cats, my first pet was a ginger kitten, I found him as a stray when I was 6 years old, just after my grandfather died, so he was special. I'm sure we'll all give our pets extra cuddles today.

Thanks everyone. Yeah, he was old, around 20 or so.

We aren’t sure exactly what happened, but one moment he was fine, then all of a sudden he wouldn’t put weight on one of his rear legs. He didn’t make any noises regarding it or anything. So we took him to an emergency vet right away and it turns out he had broken his leg in two places. Not sure if he jumped down off of a chair, or if it happened just walking (the vet said it was possible due to age). He was just too old to undergo surgery and I had to do the right thing. My wife, daughter, and dog are also really sad about it.

I’ve never seen a more social cat in my life. He never hid whenever we had gatherings like a lot of cats do (my sisters both have cats and they hide). Toby would lay in the middle of everyone and let all the kids pet him and play with him. If I ever get another cat, I hope it’s as friendly as Toby was.

Sorry to hear about Toby, JD. :/

When you're meant to be at work, and you're sitting watching TV, this is the look you get. Tested positive this morning, so no going out for at least a week.

Yeah, double vaccinated, and double boosted. The last one only 3 weeks ago. So at the moment it feels like a very mild head cold.

Im sure youll be ok big dave!

Interesting how something that we were told is supposed "boost" our Immune system...doesnt really seem to do such a thing.

But in good news in the usa from dr deborah birx...she wrote in her new book that her and fauci made up the whole 2 weeks to slow the spread and mask crap.

God bless, and i hope no others get inuries from the shots.

Get well dave and detail that cool fj of yours when ya can!

Cool lookin cat btw! They are the best pets imo
