    Welcome all to the Sunday Cat!, a weekly gathering of image makers on a subject of mutual interest, our feline friends. The Sunday Cat! has appeared each Sunday, except for a brief interruption in September, 2016, since Anton AK started the thread at DPReview on 23 September 2007. Successive thread managers have been John King, Warriormouse, Robert J, Coldamus, Robert J again (with an assist by StanTsui) and since September 2016, former lurker, me. When DPReview was threatened with closure in March 2023, the last regular Sunday Cat! there was hosted on 2 April 2023. Sunday Cat! found refuge here on 9 April 2023 and this week celebrates its 2nd anniversary here at DPRevived / The Photo Forum. :D

    Sun Worshipping Kitty of the Week!

    Micio, enjoying the kitty springtime ritual of basking in the sunshine. May there be many more for him to enjoy!

    As said by Warriormouse, "Photos can be more than just art, they can be memories, so come share your pictures and stories of your feline companions with us."

    “Official” posting time is every Sunday at 0000 UTC. Because this is Saturday afternoon for me, posting time may vary to accommodate my schedule. I'll try to post a message if I know I will be very late. Anyone anxious to start the new week is free to do so. But if you do, please PM me so I don’t accidentally double post.

    Come one, come all! Remember, all cats, all cameras welcome. Digital cats or silver halide cats, cats of metal, or cats of the wilderness. Big cats, small cats, kittens and their toys. Cats of pen and ink, cats of brush and canvas, from any time, any place. Let the Sunday Cat! be a refuge to enjoy and marvel at the magic of cats, where positive comments abound and constructive criticism is given if requested.

    The Sunday Cat! is now open for mischief. :D

    Last week's purrs, #911 / DPRv #103 / Sunday Cats! #3

    Thread Manager's Corner:
    Last week was a quiet one. Perhaps the kitties were off sunbathing in inaccessible locations such as on the roof, or the yard on the other side of the fence. ;) This week, maybe some Wednesday cats will show up for our 2nd anniversary on the 9th. :D

    Though small in size, the imprint they make on our lives is huge.

    Mr. Me has not been very photogenic lately.

    E-M1-#P4021112-159-39.jpg

    His visit to the vet on the 1st resulted in him getting a deeper cone to better protect his eyes from his paws, and drugs for pain so he wouldn't feel the need to rub them. This photo from the 2nd shows about all he was up for that day and the next. He seems to be doing a little better today, keeping both eyes open with no apparent need for pain medication. We're hoping the slow healing he is doing will get him well enough that he can ditch the collar at his next visit.

    This is one of our barn cats. She follows me around like a little puppy dog.
