Most Dignified

Name: Timi
Breed: European Shorthair Cat
IG: @timi3_thecat
Fun Fact: “Timi, my (female) cat, was born in May 2004 and came to me in the summer of the same year. She loves her big garden, even in her old age. Old age also brings with it great challenges: over 2 years ago, feline asthma was diagnosed and a few months later, hyperthyroidism, which was cured in January 2024 with radioiodine therapy. Sometimes the teeth cause problems or the old bones and joints. Despite everything, she still has a lot of zest for life, but also a great need for rest.”

Sleepiest

Name: Bart, Lisa & Ollie
Breed: British Shorthair
IG: @Thegiantcatlady
Fun Fact: “My husband took this photo during my boxing day nap – this first time we’ve seen all 3 kitties snuggle up together! (Their names are in order from my legs outwards – Bart, Lisa, Ollie) Bart & Lisa are litter sisters, so they’ve grown up together & been with me since 6½ weeks old (May 2022).
Ollie, however, I rescued from a farm where a patient of mine was keeping her in a box, only letting her out once a day to eat & use the litter tray. Ollie was about 18 months old when she finally agreed to let me take her, after months of the nursing team begging her to. June 16th 2024, I brought her home, gave her a bath & made her at home in my bathroom. She was scrawny, scared & snotty. 6 months later, she’s had her spay, she had a swab taken from up her nose (showing “”profuse growth””), 3 rounds of antibiotics later and you’d think she’d never been sick! She’s also gained 1kg in weight! So while she’s still smaller than the others, I can no longer feel her ribs or spine when I hold or stroke her. I’m going to upload a video for tiktok cat of the week with this story too, I think she deserves the attention for being such a lil hero”
