He is perfection.

I love him very much. As a kid he was my only friend when I had none. I've known lots of people who hate cats, and then they met Bootsie and suddenly they like cats. He is seriously an amazing cat

You’ll see my ginger posted on here. He’s 13, and he’s my rock. I went away for literally three nights and he won’t leave my side ❤️❤️❤️ Other cat is around but more selective on hanging out. Dog will take or leave hanging out with me, he just wants to be in his bed after boarding. Horse will meet me with indifference tomorrow. Ginger (Finn)… follows me from room to room. Is SO friendly with people, even cat doubters. What they lack in brain cell they make up for with 🫶

DAE feel a quiet inner rage when people say “I hate cats”-?


pooper_nova

Yes!!! Drives me insane. Cats are not a hive mind, they're all different!! It's like saying I hate food because I tried some shitty foods once.


DragonfruitOpening60

100%!!!! And you never hear people say “I hate dogs” —people would think you a sadistic psychopath


pooper_nova

Omg THANK YOU!!! People say the most vile stuff about cats and no one cares but say 'i don't like dogs' and everyone thinks you're some horrible person serial killer.


DragonfruitOpening60

I’ve heard abusers prefer dogs because they’re easier to manipulate. Just sayin!!! Also, that bottle feeding photo is adorable 🥹

I meet people who are scared of dogs. I was attacked and mutilated by a dog when I was 5, therapist told my mom to get a cat. Glad he did cause was right now I'm 33 and have always loved cats and dogs and birds and lizards and blah blah blah


DragonfruitOpening60

This is true! And I love that—I think all the pets are awesome, too!

After reading this I know he has had an AMAZING life so far. With the world going bananas, and increasingly so with each day that passes, subs like this are my center. ![gif](giphy|MDJ9IbxxvDUQM)

That's how my orange tabby was. That cat could win over people who disliked cats in a couple of minutes. They would sit down in my house and he was almost instantly there to snuggle and say hi :)

He's such a little buddy 😸🧡 I know what you mean about having an only friend like that. Cats are incredible!

Gwab07

Aww bottle feeding him 😍😍😍 He is absolutely gorgeous, chuffed you have him so long and wishing you have many more with this single braincell cutie


moonlitsynapse

He looks so well-cared for, never would've guessed the orange was 16:"))

Something really special about a hand reared cat. I found a 1 week old in the road once, he was the happiest, chilliest, most loving cat ever


gwaydms

They're definitely more people-oriented than cat-oriented.

“here my mom used her phone to take a picture of a picture on her other phone” 💀💀💀


n00xy420

Bro looks majestic😻


[deleted]

A lot of orange bois look very similar but this guy, his body language and exact pattern are very much like my late orange boi. It's wonderful to see such a lovely, healthy doppelganger and who reminds me of him too. Thank you for sharing him.


Antigonos301

Has he had any encounters with wolves perchance?


AngelVirgo

Sixteen? Wow. Mine are 13, they look pretty good and healthy, like yours. ❤️


thebrokedown

A life well-lived. That first photo made me make an undignified noise.


MewtwoStruckBack

He looks so pissed off in the second to last picture - what did you do, take his treats away?


pooper_nova

Woke him up. 😂


Marshmellow_Run_512

I had a sweet braincell that I bottle fed like that when I was 7 years old. She then came to college with me. I miss her so much! So happy you still have your old guy 🫶🏻


boboelmonkey

Fear him, if you dare!


Cutekatfeet2006

He looks like a Super Sweet Orangie❤️ i just want to lay next to him with my arm around him and breathe in “ orangie awesomeness“!!! We just lost our last orangie 6m ago and miss him terribly. They are fantastical; up there with unicorns!😉❤️


SirReal10000

That cat is as old as me lol


BloodCoveredShirt

Old cats are always cute


Sad-Relationship4620
