23. Great looking cat
great photo, too. What kind of camera did you use?

How many toes does he have, anyway? Looks like a Hemingway kitty. :-)

24. just a crappy digital
he has 23 toes, but we had to remove one because he was stepping on on it and it was rooting into his pad and making him bleed causing a lot of pain when we found him...He has since been 'declawed" just the one claw though :)

37. It shows! You really capured the soul of your subject...
Mr. Bubbles could easily be a CEO or a Lord -- and perhaps he is at your house!

11. I copied the actual link from properties into the browser to see it
If you do not do that you get a red-x.. Some picture hosting sites do not allow linking.. angelfire, geocities, tripod,some freeservers accounts..

Once you put in it the browser, your own computer "remembers' it and shows the picture..DK666 hosts pictures for people.. I forgot the link.. maybe someone else can post it again :)

14. What a handsome fella.
You should try compressing it to make it a little smaller and easier to load. That large of a picture has to be sucking up a lot of bandwith.

16. will do
As this was my first pic post, and it was certainly a learning experience, I will make the next pic smaller. :)It is actually quite an experience trying to post a pic, and I have learned a lot today. Thanks to all for their help!

30. He's a wicked snuggler
The other day I was taking a shower and had the bathroom door shut. I kept hearing this pounding on the door and got out of the shower to investigate. Mr. B was there suffering separation anxiety...just wanting to be picked up and cuddled. He does this 2-year-old toddler thing where he reaches up to be picked up....his paws are almost waist high on me when he reaches up...He is such a baby, The vet says he is 90 percent cat, 10 percent something else....

33. I love his "no bull shit face"
I can see him turning around in disgust and showing Jr. his butt end. Dissing Jr. in the way only a cat can.

How about his purr? I'll bet he has a loud motor also.

34. Well we were going to name him Mike Farrell...
Just to let you know about his politics. Actually he doesn't have much of a purr as he gets too emotional when you pet him and he actually starts chocking up like he is going to cry. He reminds me of the large gentle inmate in the Green Mile.

41. Long, short story
Mr. B showed up one night looking for a meal. (This happens a lot since we live up hill from the cat shelter where people just throw their cats out of the car to dispose of them.)We fed him the first night (and I told the kids we couldn't keep him as we already had three strays) Dinnertime the next night he came back. We tried to ignore him but he started to bang on the patio doors and the bathroom windows with those big paws. My daughter said: " Mom, Mr. Bubbles is here again." Hence the name.
