I nominate my parents cat, Neo:

He gets bullied by my cat, which is half his size, and then hides in his homeless box.

[–] Lexam@lemmy.world 65 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Heck I can give you a cat of the day.

Day 1. It was a dark and stormy Dash.

I'm pretty sure posting 18 pictures of your cat at the slightest provocation constitutes a positive test result for toxoplasmosis

I got it scrolling. Will say that this was an opportunity for 18 upvotes that op did not take, so it might actually be conservative.

[–] aichan@piefed.blahaj.zone 16 points 3 months ago

Damn, upvote for effort, + cute cat

I have no opinions, but I found this cat today and she made my week, so look at cookie.

[–] troot@piefed.blahaj.zone 36 points 3 months ago

This month, he helped with the bed.

A cat's muzzle is sticking out between the duvet and the duvet cover.

The same cat, white and grey with a long mane, is sticking out a little more and seems relaxed in the half-on duvet cover.

Meet Mr Giles. He terrorizes the entire house while awake, then becomes this adorable snuggly sweetheart. altr

[–] buckydubs@piefed.ca 29 points 3 months ago

Bonus cat - our girl Moira being a derp. altr

Izzy is the greyest cat on the Fediverse.

[–] Papik1999@lemmy.world 23 points 3 months ago

I hope we're not too late! Her name is Milka ♡

[–] obelisk_complex@piefed.ca 22 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Never gonna happen. Every time you try to judge, everyone just end up looking at pictures of cats all day.

Mocha is throwing his paw in to the ring.

[–] CameronDev@programming.dev 4 points 3 months ago

Mocha can hear my thoughts cant he...

[–] LaunchesKayaks@lemmy.world 17 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Here's the legend himself! He has a look of betrayal because his mama smacked him for bothering her while she was napping.

Addition: I totally want to adopt him but I do not have the finances to swing it. So imma just hope that he's one of the lil ones that makes it to adulthood. Barn cat life is rough. Better than him staying a barn cat would be someone at the barn adopting him who can afford it.

Broccoli time.

Meow-san.

Her old feeder was Japanes and had audio. It would say "Meow-san" and then dispense her food. We don't have the automatic feeder, but the name stuck. This is "Meow-san".

... And Mao!

[–] shoe@feddit.uk 12 points 3 months ago

Our croaky old lady Tali wishes to be considered, and is actively supervising as I post this :)

[–] LBP321@lemmy.world 12 points 3 months ago

I nominate Rally's Crispy Fish Sandwich!

[–] leriotdelac@lemmy.zip 12 points 3 months ago (2 children)

I dislike this idea. How can we select one of all the excellent Lemmy cats?!

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Simple - the Lemmy Cat of the Month is the cat whose post last month had the most updoots.

Luna would consider accepting the honor, but not if she has to get out of bed.

Thanks for (most importantly) saving her, and for sharing her with us!

Would like to show my cat 'Mimicha', but he is so black he doesn't appear in darkness for now.

Yeah we don't have lamps in our cave.

[–] Techranger@infosec.pub 2 points 3 months ago

Void within a void <3

[–] lath@piefed.social 4 points 3 months ago

Don't have evidence of it, but I heard a cat get into a fight with a magpie earlier and it lost.
I would like to nominate its achievement and shame it in absentia.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

I would like to nominate Oily, because he's a goober!

[–] baggachipz@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 months ago

My daily cat app: “am I a joke to you?”
