Hahaha.... SO true.
No. Disregard this post.
My Ipad in book mode will turn the screen black with white letters when the lights are out. Makes it easier to read at night. When I am in reading mode I will put my Ipad on this little table next to the bed and fall asleep while reading.

I tried that once, but at the time, I was doing a lot of graphic work, and the way it changed colors annoyed me, so I uninstalled it. But now that I do little more than forum, maybe I'll try it again!

My old fart cat loves it when I run my hand down her back then grab the tail, pick her butt 4 or 5 inches off the ground and let the tail slowly slide thru my grip of her tail.

Indoors, in dim light, I use Kindle's sepia mode, and turn the brightness down. Of course then when I'm out riding in the truck, I have to go back to white and turn the brightness UP.

The Kindle changed my life forever
Got mine as a Christmas present: wanted to hate it and left it in the box for over a year.
Finally needed a book I could get any other way than Kindle and have been hooked ever since

If I grab my cats tail, that is usually what will start an all out psycho bitch assault from murder kitty.
If I try to pat my girls tummy, then she turns psycho one me. She is old and doesnt take care of herself like she use to so that long hair gets many knots where we have to have one person hold her down while someone else cuts the knots off her tummy. I been bit a few times holding her down. And of course she screams rape the whole time we are trying to trim knots.

No. Disregard this post.
Our cat don't like shit! Doesn't like her post or scratch pad. Doesn't like any of her toys. She just sits there and fucking stares.
She likes................food. Thats about it.

My cat doesn't seem satisfied with a pet until I go all the way down her back and then up her tail... she'll keep coming back around and headbutting my hand until I do it CORRECTLY.

My cat loves tummy rubs, but only on her terms; if I try to rub her belly when she's not in the mood for it, she tries to bite me.
But if I pet her when she's sleeping on her side, she'll roll completely to her back and invite the belly rub. Andria
GFY choppy!!!Finally caught up with all the post's. Good morning/afternoon yall and GFY

Bad Ninja and his wife put killing knives in every one of their pics, so I don't see why yours is a problem.

Not a problem.
So I gotta tell this story about one of our cats. We live in a 6000 acre public state forest. It was owned by Edsel Ford, where his family resided at a 7000 sq ft. lodge/retreat. Donated by his wife to the state, after giving some choice lakefront parcels to friends. The old "Ford Mansion" still stands nearby. The area has grown tremendously in the nearly 100 years since, so everyone who has a cat they no longer want (usually pregnant), thinks these woods are a fitting place to drop em off. There is a sizable feral herd. When we need a cat, we just start putting food outside. They find it. The ones that are not too-far-gone feral, will stick around, and let you pet them.
The wife and a dawter are allergic to the dander, so I built a set of ramps that must be jumped up onto, which keeps the other critters out, to a "Condo" in the attached garage, out of 24" sonotube. Insulated, carpeted, and compartmentalized with windows and flap doors, sandwiched in a nook over stairs to the basement, between warm interior walls, up against the ceiling. Stays pretty warm even when it is below zero out. So they are ALWAYS "outdoor cats". This works pretty well, there is a flap door in one of the garage doors giving them 24/7 access, and they come and go as they please. Pretty damn nice life if you ask me. Food, water, and a warm bed. We give em Costco food. Very healthy, no frills. Once we adopt one, we go get it spayed/neutered and shots and all that. They enjoy fantastic health. Very muscled, and without table scraps, they seem to keep themselves a perfect weight.
We had a black one named Shadow. That cat had a ton of personality. She had this thing. Loved having her back, right by the tail, scratched while at the food bowl. She just LOVED to eat while having her back scratched. I think she would have eaten until she exploded if we could have scratched her long enough. One day, she disappeared. I feared she caught a tire during a roam, and was gone. But then after a few months, she showed up one day! Whew! She was a little plump, and definitely not as wiry and "tough" as she had been. Well, she stayed a couple hours, hung out with us at the lake, then disappeared again. A few weeks later, she dropped back in, then disappeared again.
There are a dozen home lots on the public forest side of the lake. So we all know each other very well. We get together for an annual Holiday Dinner and exchange gag gifts. It is usually the exact same gags, passed on to another neighbor once a year. Some cool stuff. And we take turns hosting. A few years ago, a neighbor who had only lived here a couple years hosted. Imagine our surprise, when we went over, and who was living there? Yup, Shadow. She had been "adopted" by the neighbors! They had been feeding her, and decided to keep her. Told us they had taken her to a vet, who told them the cat was not only already "fixed" but appeared to be far too friendly and healthy to be a feral cat.
Well, they had not only made "Shadow" (their daughter had given her some cutesy name) an INDOOR cat, but they spoiled her with fancy food, and said "She will only eat it if it is microwaved for three seconds. Not two, not four." Nice cushy pillow in the window, the works. Oh God, they were so embarrassed at having "stole" our cat. They wanted to know if we wanted her back. We had to laugh at THAT. NO WAY was Shadow coming back! I mean, MAYBE if they stopped bringing it in and feeding it the 3 second Fancy Feast. But honestly, she was probably about 12 years old at the time, and we discussed it a minute, and decided that it was probably best for her old body to finish her years in warm comfort, treated like the Princess that she was.
They didn't know about the food bowl back scratch. We told em, and they immediately tried it. Oh man, we laughed so hard. If you stopped, she would stop eating, and look at you with this "Well?!" look. She would come by once in awhile when they let it out, to visit, but then they moved. They asked us again before they left, if we wanted Shadow back, and we thanked em, and said, no thanks. She has a good life now. There is NO shortage around here of candidates who are damn happy to have a garage condo, reliable rations, and some daily loving.

Probably pretty "cool" unless it is in a very warm place.

Cats actually have little or no dander, because of their licking -- but their saliva, which coats every hair on their bodies, contains a detergent, which keeps them clean -- that's the allergen. My cat allergy is my worst one, but a daily zyrtec handles it almost perfectly (I still can't put my face on the cat). Some soaps break me out terribly, which is how I figured it out, about the detergent -- many detergents are highly allergenic to a lot of people. I love the smell of Coast soap, but CANNOT use it, or I end up looking like I have the freaking MEASLES!
Andria
That's right, the vet told us that once. It is actually an allergy to the saliva. I had completely forgotten. Thanks Andria...
