    Isn’t there an old joke to the effect of the happiest day of my life was when I bought the boat, and the second happiest was the day I sold it?

    Here's a variation on that: the best day of my husband's life was when he bought the boat, and the happiest day of my life will be when he sells it.

    I enjoy the boat, but not the expense.

    I know this is an old thread and I'm probably just in a sad mood because my cat is dying but the day we brought him and his brother home still rank at the top as far as great days. The day we brought them home his brother jumped out of the carrier and checked everything out immediately. My guy was more circumspect. He stayed in the carrier until no one was paying attention, then came out and tried to go behind the fridge. He got wedged in there, started crying, so I moved the fridge over and scooped him out. Apparently he decided that was a noble act. 15 years later he and I are still super best buds.

    This pic is shortly after we brought them home.

    Beautiful kitties! We have lost 5 dogs in the past 2 years. It’s heartbreaking.

    I'm so sorry JP. It is wonderful to have them, but so hard to lose them.

    It is hard when we have to let them go. Lovely photo. I am amazed that they were so quiet and posed for the photo.

    They are so beautiful, JP1. My Millie was a ginger cat, too, the best cat I ever knew.

    The yellow cats are almost always boys.

    Back in the day when I was a huge cat person I knew a lot of cats, and that was a universal truth for me. Only recently did I learn that yellow tabby is indeed a sex linked color.
