I was JUST going to post that!!!   :-DD
It's really cute.   My Missus just forwarded it from me to her Niece, though I explained to her that her Niece might not get it!!
If she is too young to remember/understand "Queen", and their "Bohemian Rhapsody", then she wouldn't understand...   8)

What is there not to understand?

Leopold, one of our two (ex-) males, last night dragged a potted plant from the window sill right across my desk onto my office chair, sending my Apple track pad to the floor in the process, before he threw a spray can from the uppermost level of my office shelf. We still haven't found the can, but were able to find the top that he had been kicking around for the rest of the night.

The door-open/closed-want-to-get-out/or-rather-not game becomes twice the fun with two cats alternately wanting (or not) to get in or out.

Great name for a shooting families cat.  ;)
Leopold is our cats best friend as it ensures the accuracy for dad to provide a steady stream of rabbits.

I suspect he's been sniffing the burnt capacitors from blown test gear.

Anyone for a free cat? She meows LOUD, incessantly, at the kitchen door to be let into the sitting room - ZERO PATIENCE. As she is 17 years old, I only allow her to sit when I am with her - she has this relatively new habit of ####ing halfway up the stairs, if unattended. If you'd like a cat, holler! lol!

My cat Max died this morning at 0500 hours CEST.
He came home yesterday evening, injured. We don't know what happened but I took him straight to the vet.
They examined him and no broken bones or internal bleeding were found.
But he had a low temperature and was dehydrated. So the vet suggested that he needed an infusion and
because of the low body temperature he should be put in a warming cell overnight.
Unfortunately, Max did not make it.  :'(

He was a good friend and faithful companion to me for sixteen years and one month.
I am grateful for the time we were allowed to spend together.

This is him, after a few days he found us in September 2005:


That is one of my favourite pictures of him in December 2008:


And that is one of the last pictures of him, dated from March 2021:


I have buried him in a sunny spot in our garden, in a place where he can observe all the things that he loved.

Farewell ol' buddy...

Sorry to hear that mate. You'll have to buy a Max Memorial Multimeter in honour of him.

How really sad. Having lost a few over the last 30 years, I know what you're feeling.

I am so, so sorry to hear this.  My deepest condolences.  They always leave us too soon; it's even worse when something happens that cheats them (and you) out of time that should have been.  RIP, little guy.   :( :(

Sorry to hear. :(    He sounds like he had a good life. 

My cat is 17 and it's crazy when I think of all the life milestones I went through since I had her. Was in high school then.  Not looking forward to when her time comes.   It will not be easy. It's like losing a family member.

I am not terribly good with electronics, but I do know cats. I'm sorry this is gonna be a big one.

Our two cats, boys & littermates:






In a tree




In a chair


In the snow


In the kitchen


On the bird house


On the construction site
