Meet Dude, The Museum Cat

[pastafreak]

He's a BIG boy and has the run of the Delaware Museum of Nature and Science. Hard to believe he's at least 14 years old! Must be all the love he gets.

He seems to be an expert at begging for food. They are strange little animals.

What the Americans call a Chonker I believe, he's a handsome chap.I

We do have our share of Working cats, Felix( respect the Fluff) and Bolt at Huddersfield Station, Percy at Okehampton, and many others.

Aww I love the way he walks, or should I say waddles! One lucky puss to have such a kind, loving owner. Lovely.

[wolf63]

rowan, they made Percy redundant and he has gone to live with a family. He still looks very handsome.

The neutered Tom sway, they seem to saunter with cattitude.

Does he have a hernia ?

Pub cats are my source of a cat fix now. Currently the Wellington in Birmingham has two young terrors called hopz and malt after Welly retired ( got too fat from scrounging Black Country scratchings)

Lovely cat but a few too many snacks, I suspect.

My Toby is a bit of a chonk...he's slowly shrinking as he plays more.
Anne...that hanging belly is called a 'primordial pouch'...the theory is that cats develop it to protect their organs in the wild.
I call it middle aged spread :)

He's definitely a fat cat, that Dude.

[anneasquith]

I did not know that pasta, thank you .

[Tilly2]

Nor me, Anne

Lovely, pasta. Hope Toby saw it and is assisting with your kitchen clean-up ;)

[choux]

I call middle age spread Old English Marmalade.
Coat is on...

[pastafreak]

Lol choux ;)
Toby is sprawled out across the foot of my bed...doing cat snores.
He knows which side his bread is buttered on. :)
