Broccoli cheddar is a pretty awesome name for an orange cat. I love him.

Thank you! I named him that because when he was really little and his belly was full, he looked like the full of soup meme

The green eyes don't hurt, either.

In the early 2000s I had a cat named Karmalee. She got out of the apartment. So I'm roaming the streets calling out "KARMALEE!!!!!......... KARMALEE!!!!......."

And a police officer was driving by. He pulled up and asked ".......are you looking for a dog?" And I said "No, a cat." And he said "Oh...." and drove off.

To this day I don't know what to make of that exchange. Like him finding out its a cat just ended the conversation instantly. But he did see/hear me, and before talking to me already could assess that I was looking for a lost pet.

It makes me wonder what he would have instinctually thought if he saw me, a fat guy, walking the streets at 2am as bars are letting out, and I'm just wondering the streets yelling "BROCCOLI CHEDDAR!!!!....... BROCCOLI CHEEEEEEDDAAAAARRRRRR!!!!!"

That's the basis for a decent standup bit if you're that type of fat guy.

Didn't recognise him without you pointing at him :).

Lmaoooo. Yeah he's really growing up.

One of the other mama cats has a litter of 3 that haven't even opened their eyes yet. Two orange tabbys and one grey. She shows me them every time I go to the barn. First time she showed me, they were still wet.
