Named him Ollie after Oliver Twist. Lab tests all negative (leukemia, aids, etc.), neighbors been feeding him all summer so he's a healthy 10lbs of orange

10lbs!!! My little orange lady is only 5.5lbs.

It's all relative, he's a big long tomcat. For his size 10 is a good spot. (not my first tom) :)

[–] jade52@lemmy.ca 11 points 2 weeks ago

Agreed, he looks like a good sized boi.

Such a cute slinky fluster

I swear to dog I'm not following you yet every second post I see you pop up under it 😭

I get around

He's inviting belly rubs (or setting a trap).

[–] fonix232@fedia.io 14 points 2 weeks ago

He's orange. Unless it's his day with the brain cell, he's incapable of even determining what a trap is, let alone set one.

Congrats Ollie! Looks like you landed a right proper sucker! Good job! :D

My god, he looks so incredible comfortable! Must be sleeping like a king.

We took in a stray orange cat one fall. Named him George. He wasnbug, gentle, full house broken to the point he sat patiently in the tub as I washed him.

I think he found a new home each fall to hibernate in. Smart. Come spring he ran off again. Took our house cat with him.

He looks soo cute :-) I never had an orange cat, is it true that they all share a single braincell with each other?

Don't forget to deworm him, that might make his belly a bit smaller - i haven't heard of a stray that didn't have some intestinal parasites.

Looks more like an Adonis to me
