I'm back, and what a lovely cat to see on my return to the screen! I was in Brisbane only last month and didn't see you gracing the streets - your parents must be good and keep you inside and safe from danger. Have a lovely day little pink baby, hopefully see you on my next visit :)

Sweet bundle of fur, Bistet;) I love your little face, your color and your playful position on the picture :D
Have a happy, long life and bring joy to your humans;)
Nosekisses and headbumpies from Juni, she also likes to lick hair - my brother's :D

I can't bear it; I just can't bear it: more of this "cat as dog" stuff. So many people think their cats are like dogs - that ought to be a clue, maybe. Maybe these stereotypes about cold, arrogant, cats and warm, loving, dogs are just that - stereotypes; and all these cats who are reputedly like dogs are not at all like dogs, but are like cats. Bastet has a great personality not because she is like a dog but because she is a cat - all cat, 100 percent cat, no dog involved.

And while I'm bashing stereotypes, let me bash another: this man-dog, woman-cat thing. I AM A MAN, A REAL, GENUINE, MAN WHO DOES MANLY THINGS AND MY BEST FRIEND (save for my wife, of course) HAS INTERRUPTED THE WRITING OF THIS DIATRIBE SEVERAL TIMES BY CRAWLING ONTO MY LAP AND NUZZLING MY FACE AND FOREHEAD AND IS NOW SITTING ATOP MY MONITOR AND HE IS NOT AT ALL A DOG, HE IS 100 PERCENT CAT AND HE IS A BLACK CAT AND THERE IS NO EVIL IN HIM, THOUGH THERE IS MISCHIEF. HE IS ALL GOOD. ONE COULD SPEND THEIR WHOLE LIVE VISITING CHURCHES OF EVERY DENOMINATION AND NEVER FIND AN INDIVIDUAL AS GOOD AS THIS BLACK CAT.

There. Now, let me praise Bastet as a beautiful little lion who, like all cats, knows she is special and, I am certain, knows that the person who loves her is also special, and so forgives all this nonsense about her being part dog.

The black cat and I will now go to bed, where we will be joined by my wife. Any other cat who lives here is also welcome to join us, but not the kitten and certainly not the dog. I love the dog dearly, but she is big and likes to wallow in mud and dead, rotting, smelly, moose and at night she shakes her ears and farts some really terrible farts and so not only must she sleep on the floor, she must sleep out in the hall.

Good night!

Oh, by the way, I guess the stereotypes about men and dogs was introduced by some men that were (?????) ashame to recognize that they could love such a sweet creature as CAT. My brother is one of the most loving pet persons, and he loves and plays and tickles all the cats he meet (dogs too).

What a precious, purrrrfect, beautiful girl you are!!! You are just georgeous!!! It is certainly a treat to meet you this morning all the way from Australia...I have never, NEVER seen a furrbaby that is indeed "pink!" Congratulations, sweet one on being today's Sweetheart...your humans are extremely lucky to have you!

Noserubs, snuggles and purrs...Bari and the Pride

Oh, and Frostfrog, I just knew as I was reading Bastet's bio that you were going to comment...we couldn't agree more...cats are cats are cats...behavior is just up to them. They're not LIKE anyone or anything...just CATS!!! And my how we love them!

P.S. I think I'm glad we don't have any dogs (and that's another story!!!)

Actually the main difference between cats and dogs is that dogs tend to be pack animals and cats are loners,which is why a dog is more visibly affectinate.And cats being smaller are more cautios than dogs in thier relations to people,thusly the man/woman comparisons.But all this iside Bastet is a beautiful cat and well deserves her Goddess name.MEEEEOW>

What a cute kitty! I've never seen a fawn aby before, now I want one too! I've always thought Abys were very beautiful cats. And Bastet sure is one very pretty kitty.

Bastet, you beautiful little cutie!!! I just wanna kiss your smiley little baby face! Your little button nose and playful eyes are soooo adorable. Your fur is a gorgeous color too! What a perfect way to spend my lunch time here at work! You put a smile on my face that'll last the rest of today! I wish my kitties could be Social Butterflies like you--they're not shy around us but run and hide as soon as friends arrive. Enjoy your day Baby! I just loved meeting you this afternoon! Hug and Kisses and Snuggles!!!!! :) :cool:

I have never seen an aby with your coloring. I've never been a breed person (except maybe for my "tuxie's", being a "tuxie's" mom!;) ) but I am becoming more fond of you abys as I learn more about you! Congratulations to you and your mom on this, Your Day!!!

Oh little Bastet how could I miss you yesterday, you cute little bundle of tenderness. Filou who likes to lick my husbands hair (he likes it only if it's as short as his own) sends his best wishes, Tigris who only licks Filou's hair too.
And sasvermont: what a gorgeous photo of a gorgeous cat!!!
