Some of you may know that I a have a pet cat and a pet rabbit. Most of you won't know. That's okay, because I'm showing them off anyway!
This is my beautiful kitty, Tom, and myself. He's a broad Tabby cat, approximately six years old.
I don't have any available pictures of my bunny, but he's gray and quite large now. I can't believe he's over a year old, to be honest. I remember when he was small and floppy-eared.
Do you guys have any super-awesome pets?

I'm not seeing any pictures, unless you didn't post any. Anyway. At my Mom's house, we have two cats. There's Seamus, he's about 8 years old and he's a tuxedo, in layman's terms, he's black and white with long fur. A lot of people say he's a pretty big cat, which is true, he's fairly bigger than this chihuahua that came over with one of my Mom's friends a few times. Then there's my new favorite, our new addition, Miss Prissy. She's what's called tortoise-shell, it's best described as a pixelated calico. Her face however is a bit more calico, the orange parts of her face looks more tabby, and she has, I've recently discovered, a black diamond on her forehead. She's nearing 1 1/2 years old. Miss Prissy, as I said, is my favorite. She seems to know how beautiful she is. She doesn't just look over at you, she always seems to be posing. She took her name to heart. She loves me. She is constantly trying to take her naps in my bed. There were a few times when she slept all night in my bed, others I had moved too much for her taste. Now, Seamus, full name Seamus O'Malley. Yes his other name was derived from Aristocats, it was inspired by the scene where he makes faces at the milk truck driver to get him to stop. Yeah, that's my cat. He thinks he's the king of the house. He is the definition of lapcat. He will come up and lay on your lap, whether it is covered or not (with a laptop for instance, or say a textbook). Now, we used to also have this old fat orange tabby cat, Tigger, before he had to be put down because of breathing problems. Seamus used to have him crying out because of how they would play. Now when we got Miss Priss, at first she would hiss at him and hide. For about a month she would hide upstairs and she was constantly on edge. She would avoid the front room entirely, jumping from the top of the stairs, over to the doorway leading into the office. She has powerful back legs. She also had her front claws removed before we got her. Seamus was not declawed. But anyway, as time went on, Miss Priss started to warm up to us and the apartment and now she has Seamus running. Seamus would start a fight, but Miss Priss would finish it. Yeah, that's my kitty-cats ^-^

There's a link on This is my beautiful kitty, Tom, and myself. I don't usually put up images, I only link to them. c:
As for you cats! They have so much personality and I bet they look absolutely beautiful. I've always loved Tortoise-shell cats, though I don't understand why they tend to be female. My Aunt used to have two cats just like Miss Prissy and Seamus. The Calico was a snotty young thing that preferred to be looked at, but not touched; the long-haired one was a sleeper who would do anything to find a warm lap.
Tom doesn't have much personality. He's just an average lazy cat. There are unique characteristics about him, but most of the time he's sleeping. Eventually, I'm going to forget what these super-amazingly-fantabulous traits are.

Nice, I didn't see the difference in color. Yeah, Tom is a cute cat.

It's not his best angle (nor mine), but he still looks handsome. I've always loved how his whiskers point in different directions, yet his freckles are in perfect lines.
Edit -- I feel that I should also mention how old that picture is. I took it roughly one year ago. In that time, he's lost a lot of weight and gained a few scars and patches. I've found my skin and tend to care for myself a bit better now, so I'm not so scruffy and young-looking. Just sayin'.
