Ya, FIV is manageable
 As long as he can get along with other cats without biting all is ok – Boika seemed iffy, but he gets along fine with his brothers (we did give him to a friend so he doesn’t get exposed to as many vectors, but he stays with us several times a year).
I just don’t know if the wife will be ok with another cat in the house (we have 6 now). I just have to keep working on his desire to be a lap cat – she really misses having a lap cat.

:scream_cat: Here I thought we were the “crazy cat people” with 4! :joy_cat:

Lap cats are pretty awesome. We don’t have one in current lot.

Our last true lap cat that one could hug-n-cuddle without any fuss was our sweet sweet boy, Leo (also FIV+), unfortunately, he dropped dead of a heart attack (we assume) ~1.5 yrs ago.
We were maintaining at a nice manageable 4 cats for quite a while, but then the MiL wanted a kitten that was available and then another stray came along

What I need to do is screen in our back patio so that it is a safe place for Mister B. Bob.

Sweet Hunta, the rescue Boxer, died tonight. I don’t know exactly what happened but she will be very much missed. May she bounce and twirl in doggo heaven. And continue to marinate everyone and everything in sight in her fur, snot and drool, while lavishly making accidental bruises because of her belief she was totally a lap dog. Thanks for stoically tolerating my continual booping of that very boopable nose, beautiful girl.

was reading the local weekly and this headline jumped out at me:

because you, @BakaNeko often post photos of this lovely birb, my reaction was “banaquit?! really? in Key West?!”
here is the archive link (no paywall):

Whoa!

Thanks for sharing. This is some serious bird watchers stuff, I mean, these guys sure know their birds. And the article was very funny to read.

I thought these birds also flew to Florida, as it is not so far from the Caribbean islands and the climate is milder. Although @Mangochin and @anon67050589 have already posted pictures of parakeets in the north of the United States, @anon87143080 said that there are parrots in Chicago and @FGD135 posted a video about Parakeets in Germany, this is the kind of thing I would never have thought possible. Parakeets were tropical birds for me.

Now I think that New Jersey Parakeets and Chicago Parrots would be good names for a NFL team.
