#ShivaTheCat would either just put her paw on my hand, or claim my entire shoulder. 😻

Shiva the Cat stretched out across FiXato's shoulders, with her claws dug into his left shoulder.
FiXato looking at her with an expression of "what are you doing, dear?"

@ottaross may I present the late #ShivaTheMeerkat aka #ShivaTheCat ? 😅

(#ImageDescription: a cat standing upright on her hind legs in front of a window, with her front paws pulled up against her body as if she were a Meerkat. Flowers and a lava lamp can be seen on either side of her.)

@woozle aww... sorry to hear that. I still miss #ShivaTheCat too, and part of me would like the company of another cat, but on the other hand I also don't want the added responsibility.

But did the thing go missing before or after their passing? 😅

@Teryl_Pacieco I've joked before that the fur collected from #ShivaTheCat while brushing her, looked a bit like a #Tribble 😅

Shiva the cat getting annoyed with me because he couldn't fit into the box.

Shiva passed away in 2018. Still miss him. 😻

yeah, I agree with you there. Certificate is new to me, and feels just wrong... I'd rather put up a nice photo of them in their prime... It's hard enough to come across pictures from our late cat during her last days.
When we had to get #ShivaTheCat euthanised we just left her at the vet's to be cremated together with other pets... at that point it was just an empty shell, and carrying her body home walking through the city, or in a taxi? I don't think that would've been positive for anyone. Sadly it was also not like we really had a garden we could bury her in anyway.

May ZugZug live on in your memories and play with the spectral birds in your garden. 💚

@brainblasted a #dailyPhoto of #ShivaTheCat looking into the camera while holding her toy mouse. Sadly it's from my #PhotoArchives as she's no longer with us.

@Gordito it's so cute when #cats do that... <3

Dug up one from my #PhotoArchives of #ShivaTheCat doing something similar.

Monochrome photo of Shiva the Cat putting two of her paws on my hand while I was using a tablet.

It's been 15 years since @Siiw and I, during a late night talk on #IRC, decided to try and share our lives together as a couple, and now I can't imagine it without her. <3

To commemorate the milestone, I've painted an up-to-date #watercolour version of an artwork I commissioned of @dm7755 6 years ago.

At that time #BeardGrabber wasn't part of our lives yet, so I had to include him. Sadly #ShivaTheCat never got to meet our little boy, but I still wanted her to remain part of the #drawing, so now she's watching us from a cloud in the sky. <3

A framed painting made as an 15 years anniversary gift for my wife.

It depicts a woman with yellow boots and yellow cap, holding a fishing rod, sitting on the shore of an island. At the end of the fishing rod is a phone that's being read by a beard-and-hat-wearing fish swimming down below in the sea.
Sitting next to the woman is a young boy dressed in green with pink boots, with his arms wrapped around the arm of his mother.

Three hearts are in between the woman and the boy, and the fish. The purple outlined heart represents the love from and for our son, the yellow one is my wife's, and the green one is mine.

From the clouds a brown with grey cat, Shiva the Cat, watches over us.

@vicorva I can vividly imagine Merlin going: *chitter chitter chitter*

at least that was the sound #ShivaTheCat used to make at birds outside of her reach....

A #cat or #meerkat?

A #dailyPhoto from my #photoArchive, showing our late #ShivaTheCat imitating a #suricate.
She loved looking out the window, chittering at the birds outside.
