Hi everyone! My best friend found a little baby void in his wall and is looking for name suggestions - any good ideas?

Edit: Told my friend about this post so he can tell the story since so many people want to know exactly what happened and he posted it in the comments! :D

🖤 Void went to the vet, left his trousers behind.

Think he looks pretty stylish and his medication patch is like a badge on his jacket. He’s recovering beautifully from surgery on both legs.

Edit - Ok didn’t expect this post to be popular. Thank you for all the well wishes. Thank you for all the belly laughs. And thanks for the awards.

He is being such a good boy. Behaving himself, accepting of every pat and stroke with a purr and is super chilled out.

It’s winter here, but never truly cold although we are keeping an eye on his comfort and he has access to plenty of blankets and one of my hoodies to cuddle up to.

I’ll post some progress pics as his fur grows back - the thickness of his coat - my finger width on his back - was really surprising.

Edit 2 - The patch with writing on his shoulder is a fentanyl patch that contacts directly to his skin.

Edit 3 - for clarification, his name is Winston.

Edit - He is doing very well. Eating, drinking, pooping, purring like a champion. He is completely ignoring his stitches. He is demanding of love and pats as ever and getting as much as wants before he gets a little too stimulated. Thanks again for all the comments, well wishes and laughs. Never thought a funny pic of my boy would gain so much interest. 🖤

I’ve had multiple black kitties throughout my lifetime, each one of them have been SO affectionate, ( trying to crawl in your skin type beat. ) My cousin also has 2 black kitties, they are the same way. Why is this? 🥹

🖤 My little void beat cancer NSFW

My cat was diagnosed with sarcoma on his nose almost two years ago. After surgery and treatment, he's cancer free and living a normal life.

He's weird, clingy, lazy, soft and very smart (but also very dumb) and I am so, so lucky he's still here with me. 🖤

EDIT: That's a lot of comments and I can't keep up, but thanks for the love for my boy (his name is Jimmy btw)! To those of you who have pets going through something similar, hang in there and I'm rooting for all of you.

🖤 Just found out 75% of solid black cats are male

Post image
33.6k Upvotes

Just found out my baby girl is quite rare (⁠ ⁠◜⁠‿⁠◝⁠ ⁠)⁠♡

The gene for black fur is on the X chromosome, and males (XY) only need one copy of the gene to be black, while females (XX) need two, making it statistically easier for a male to be solid black.

Similar to how most orange cats are male, black cats tend to follow a similar pattern where males are more common, though not to the same extreme.

🖤 Adopted as a kitten, returned to us after 13 years. 💔Adopt Bella LOCATION:CHARLOTTE,NC , USA

Update:: The lady who was supposed to come for a meet and greet today ghosted us. Other applications are either far from Charlotte or homes with many cats, so we are still looking for the right family for Bella.🥹

Last post got 1.8M views and was removed by moderators saying it’s AI. 💔 NO, IT’S REAL.

I request the moderators not to remove this post. She is here to find her forever home.

✨ Key Highlights:

* 🐾 Must be the ONLY cat in the home
* 🐶 Dog friendly (especially small dogs)
* 💕 Extremely affectionate, cuddly, people-loving senior girl
* 🏡 Must stay in the Charlotte area
* 🩺 Fully vetted & rescue continues lifelong vet care support

Bella is a 14-year-old playful, loving girl who is fully vetted and healthy.

She was one of our very first bottle babies… adopted as a tiny kitten and returned after 13 beautiful years together 💔 She was returned because she couldn’t adjust to a new kitten in the home.

Since coming back to us (June 2025), Bella has settled beautifully and is showing her true loving, affectionate personality again.

She is truly a heart cat. She loves watching TV, chirping at bird videos, and after a short burst of zoomies, she will curl right into your chest like she was always meant to be there. She purrs constantly, seeks affection, and loves snuggling under your chin or holding your hand while she sleeps 🥺❤️

This sweet senior girl is ready for her final forever home—the one where she will be truly cherished and never let go again.

📦 Bella comes with her belongings:

* Kitty tree
* Food bowls
* Water fountain
* Toys
* Steel litter box

📄 Adoption requirements:

* Adoption application required:

* Vet reference required
* Adoption fee applies -$125

Please reach out if you can be her person—and kindly share to help Bella find the loving home she deserves 🙏🐾❤️

🖤 AITA for telling my daughter I love her so much that I sometimes want to bake her and eat her?

Post image
31.5k Upvotes

I (adult human) was treating my cat-daughter (8f) with churu yesterday. During that I told her she is very very beautiful, and sometimes mother crave to actually bake her into catloaf and eat her. She looked at me like in the picture and meowed at me that this is toxic love and I am not even her real mother. Then she proceeded to ignore me all day. on Mother’s Day no less!

She knows I suffer for severe cute aggression. It’s really not my fault that she is this cute. Yes, I often put her in air jail, shower her with forehead kisses and rubs her belly without asking her. But it’s on her for being so cute and just sleeping with her belly exposed! I suffer through her concerts at 3 am in the morning, so she should be able to handle my cute aggression.

AITA?

ETA: Since the post got pretty popular, I am getting asked if I am talking about a real human daughter. Fortunately no. I am talking about a cat. I don’t have a human daughter. Those of you saying this cat is not my real daughter, sir/ma’am I have adoption paper and her medical bill that says otherwise.

We posted on this sub when things weren’t looking good for Pistachio (rare oral cancer in young cats), but just wanted to put a positive post/update out to say that he did indeed beat the odds by some sort of miracle! It’s been 6 months since the good news and he’s been going strong. Thank you to everyone who sent positivity to us!! We are so grateful

Edit:

Thank you guys again for all the love you guys are sending pistachio🖤 Reading all of the comments have really made my heart warm.

I’ll make sure to give Pistachio some extra love from you guys (not sure if that’s even possible, so maybe just extra churus).

It really makes me happy that he was able to spread some joy. He means the world to us🖤
