Beautiful dog. Though he looks a little sad in that pic. Probably has you wrapped around his paw with those sad puppy dog eyes.

Bryant is a cutie.

And a tip of the hat to you and your son for your service to community and country.

Thanks so much. I always thought I was more of a dog guy until Duchess adopted me. Now she has me wrapped around her little paws. Smile

It’s what cats do and they’ve always been darn good at it. Big Grin

Meet Killer. He owns my son Jeff but he has me under control too.
He was the runt of the litter and could only squeak, not meow.
Jeff figured he had better have a tough name or he would have a tough life.
The one fight he had he lost.  The skunk won.

He is a well mannered cat. As you can see, he never puts his elbows on the table.
He keeps himself immaculate. He is very proud as he is a relative of the King of the Jungle.

He taught me how to take cat naps. In gratitude I am teaching him how to conduct an orchestra. Being very clever he uses his tail instead of a baton.  He is doing very well with waltzes. But 4/4 time still gives him some trouble.

I have many photographs of him. As a subject he excels at keeping still.

What an incredibly handsome cat and what a wonderful description; I'm sure Killer approves. Winking

Mickey Oberman, truly a great photo & words.

The more I observe my cat, and at the same time follow someone one social media who takes care of several big cats (mostly lions and tigers, but also jaguars and leopards), the more amazing it is to see how similar they are in many ways.

Killer looks like he would do just fine at a board meeting. Smile

That is very true, Matsilainen. They are both so beautifully, elegantly graceful.

He would never tolerate or sit through a bored meeting.
He would take a cat nap for the duration.
Oh yes. I know. Board and bored - pretty much the same thing.

Mickey Oberman, I thought of the same thing when I was typing my previous response — bored at the board meeting. Smile
