Teen/senior kitties please check in

Yes I think he looks a bit thinner and it's also normal for older cats. He looks great!

Thank you! He's the same old Sash, always asking for food.

I guess I qualify - I turn 12 on December 12! I think I should get a dozen dozen dozen sardines to celebrate, don't you?

I'm as cute and goofy as ever, but as you can see, I'm feeling really allergic and itchy these days. My human keeps insisting that if I eat my canned food, the itching will stop (she puts a bunch of protection spells in it, and the one with the longest name - claw-fur-n-ear-amine? - is an itch stopper) so I finally relented and licked up half a bowlful this afternoon. I really wanted the stuff she was giving me when she ran out of the stuff she buys from the Pokey Needle Lady, but I guess this stuff is pretty tasty too!

Here's a meow out to my Experienced Cat Homies!

Love, Smudge

My Scooter Bug is getting close... he will be 12 on the 21st of this month.

He's my heart kitty, but Shhh, don't let Charlie hear that!

Hmm, here is one he looks less grouchy in:


Yum, meowmie gave me some gooood food. She's not sure what it was though. I like to surprise her and come out of rooms that have no food bowls, acting like I've been eating stuff.

Gosh, I feel silly putting Grace on here now! She's like a baby now compared to all of these kitties! It's hard to imagine that she is less than half as old as Samantha! All of your kitties look magnificent and what a blessing that they have had such long and healthy lives! Must be the love of PT parents!!!

This is a great thread and it's great to see everyone's Senior Cats doing so well. I now have 2 seniors in my household. Storm is 11 and will soon be 12 in Jan. and Sunny just turned 7 in August so he's new to the senior world.


Storm is my oldest and he's doing well. He's now on a grain free diet and is on some herbal supplement pills to help keep him calm. The last time he was at the my regular vet in June he weighed 14.5lbs but he may have gained a little weight since then. I hope to have him around for many more years to come.



Sunny is a very young senior and he still acts like a big kitten. He's doing very well but will sometimes break out with feline acne.The last time he was weighed at the vet he was between 12-13lbs. He's my goofy baby and I'm sure he'll live a long happy and healthy life.

The most recent pictures of my girls, taken just last weekend. Our mummy cat Jessica, who could be 15ish, on the ground. Samantha and Daisy have both turned 12 now and are reclining on the bench and the small table respectively.

A picture of Felicia. I got her as a kitten in 1989. I haven't seen her for over a year, but they tell me she is alive and well.

Cassie here. I'm a "senior kitty-zen" as my Uncle Catmandu would say ... I'm 12. My eating habits have changed a little bit over the past several months. I dislike leftovers more now than I used to - that means I awaken my meowmy around 2-3 AM so she can feed me the first part of my breakfast. But I always make her happy after I eat, I come back in the bedroom licking my mouth, and I snuggle with her on the bed and purr. So she doesn't mind feeding me at that early hour. I still like to play with my kitty tease toy and munch on cat grass. I will instruct meowmy to take a new photo of gorgeous me.

Auntie Kim, here is a current photo of me and my second favorite blankie. My favorite blankie is in the laundry.
