Yes. We rescued him back in 2017 (he was semi-feral) and he is approx. 11 years old now.

that’s funny, I had a cat for about 13 years that looked almost identical. Unfortunately just over a year ago his health took a turn and we had to put him down. I was sadder than I thought I would be, given how much trouble he gave me while he was alive (he liked to pee everywhere but his litterbox)

Awww man. It looks like he’s seen some things. And some stuff.

I take a lot of pics of my cat (my wife thinks I am a bit obsessed) so I have tried doing selfies with him.

He has had a lot of health issues over the years (he was not in great shape when we rescued him), and it was quite touch and go for a while, but he is doing ok now. He always looks a bit melancholic in pictures.

Not sure if you do the ear tipping thing in the US, but over here in the UK, they will mark a semi-feral cat living outside with other cats as neutered by clipping a small part of his ear (I am not really a fan of this but he was like this when we were able to take him in)

Here is a more normal pic:

Nope same for me

I like to think of myself as a hardened thug, didn’t shed a tear when any of my 4 grandparents died

After my sweet cat passed away I could not function for days. I buried her in my backyard and I still tear up every time I walk past her grave. Even just writing this makes me emotional

Yeah we eartip over here in the US too

In japan they just cutch a notch into their ear tip, which seems neater and more humane
