    To start with....
    I was adopted by 2 black cats who are now living with my mum (they are already teenagers in human years).
    Where I live now I was also adopted by a black cat.
    Other than cats, I've had a rabbit (I like rabbits - but they are so not compatible with cables...) and a rat (who was very smart). But I don't really think I want to live without cats.

    And yes, based on my experience, cats love sleeping on Mac keyboards (and rabbits.. I rather keep them away from my computer equipment totally). Now time to see what other iPets we have around...

    Or wait as the others have added pics to theirs, here my darlings without the links


    Murri


    Musti (the iBook is for the scale..)


    'Kitty' - she hasn't told her real name yet

    We have a cat called Molly. Our family are guilty of anthropomorphising pets, so its quite normal for us to talk to Molly as though she was a child. She has no idea what we are saying of course, but she seems to like the attention.

    We also had a male cat until last year. His name was Edward (but more affectionately known as Edward Shmedward, as he was a Jewish cat). He knew his name, knew what ham and chicken meant, but was crap at taking messages.

    He only had one eye due to a savage attack by a dog four years ago. After the attack, the vet tested for brain damage by throwing Edward in the air to see if he would land on his four paws. He did, so he survived, only to die of feline AIDs on Xmas Day last year. That was a bummer.

    kitty & fish

    Our nutty cat, Kooky, 8 years old and nine little "tropical fish." Latest edition. I have buried many gold fish in our outside plants ("recycling" I said to my daughter). It was either that or the toilet.

    Don't have any now, but I, too, was once adopted by a black cat, female, called Luna. She left one day a couple of years ago and hasn't come back. I still miss her.
