The Sane Cattery: Because normal is overrated

The Sane Cattery: Because normal is overrated

Welcome to The Sane Cattery, the totally rational, completely normal place where we - totally sane humans - gather to admire our feline overlords. This is a judgment-free zone (unless your cat is the one doing the judging, which, let’s be honest, they always are). Feel free to share photos of your majestic moggies, chaotic kitties, and everything in between. Whether they’re plotting world domination, defying the laws of physics, or simply loafing like sentient bread, we want to see them. Because nothing says "sane" like dedicating an entire discussion to our tiny, furry dictators.

Allow me to begin...

Here is our oldest, Roughy who is 9.

Ryker, who is 7. Trying to convince himself he still fits in this thing like a glove!

And the latest edition, Luna (14 weeks)

...and another one of Luna, 'cause she's so damn cute.

I have been instructed to say that she was in no way stuck, and was just testing my responsiveness.

Re: The Sane Cattery: Because normal is overrated

One of the regulations where I live limits size of things and locations items are placed, all about clear access to front and back if needed by emergency services. If I could I would have from back of the unit to the back fence turned into cat enclosure.

@MJG017 @avant-garde @Jynx

One option I’m thinking of is automated alfresco awnings for variety of reasons. I don’t have horizontal beam over longest section of alfresco, this possibly causing issues.

other option I’ve thought of is cat enclosure that will need cat tunnel plus cat door. One I prefer are very sturdy as made from galvanised steel and am able to buy different accessories. Not sure my 2 would use it.

Re: The Sane Cattery: Because normal is overrated

Here are the three void babbies that keep me sane.

Leila, the unquestioned matriarch:

She was rescued from a storm and spent her first few months in a vets being carried everywhere. To this day if there's a storm or loud noise she'll come running in and cry to be held, because as soon as she is in my arms, she is safe:


This is her 'little' brother Lorcan:

He's part Mayne Coone, and thus huge (about 7 kgs). He is also very cuddly and very possessive:

He has a bit of an overbite so gets frequent and adorable bleps:


And finally the youngest, Luna:

Not many pics yet both because haven't had her very long, and because she refuses to stay still. She fears neither god nor consequences, regularly enjoying such activities as:
- chasing sister
- destroying rolls of toilet paper

- chasing sister

- eating cardboard boxes

- stealing hairtyes

- chasing sister (3am edition)

- stealing webcams

She is full of energy and looks like she may be part Siamese, so may grow to be as big as her brother. Gods help us.

Hello and welcome @Nerys

What a gorgeous group you've got there! Luna reminds me of my boy Ollie who is also full of beans and loves to chase his sister 😂

I also just wanted to let you know that there were some photos that couldn't be posted because they were identifying images. Here on the forums we're an anonymous space to keep us all safe, you can read a bit more about it here in our community guidelines which are easy to miss when you first sign up! It just means that we need to be careful about not posting things that could be used to identify us offline, but not to worry if you slip up, us mods are always around to help catch little things like this 😊

So lucky! They're also cute. It would have been so much fun to play with them all.

It reminds me when we went to the new RSPCA building to pick up Luna. Not that we went to pick her, but another that was in the same enclosure. The one we went for just stayed asleep, and Luna came straight out and wanted to play, so the decision was made for us. But it was so much fun playing with the kittens... you just wanted to take them all.

@MJG017 awww she really chose you ❤️. It's hard to tear yourself away from playing with them and having cuddles, I could lose hours just watching them play 🤣.
