Ladies, do these photos make you want to adopt a cat? I suppose in a modern world, with gay marriage et cetera, I should also mention whether men could be encouraged to adopt cats when looking at these photos but I’d rather stick to the conventional for the time being. All the photos are by Petra Romano.
The guy above is John Fugelsang and his kitty, Bix….(I don’t know who the rest are – can you help?)
As you might expect, the idea behind these photos is to encourage people to adopt unwanted pets and to raise adoption awareness. They are photos from the Tails of NYC RescueMen calendar. The men are New Yorkers as I understand it. I have featured cats but the other photos are of dogs.
The organisers are: Felicia Greenfield and Jen Halpern. All the men featured are animal lovers. Halpern said:
“They truly inspire us to want to continue to make a difference for shelter animals.”
This is a project of Pillows for Paws a not-for-profit founded by Halpern.
“Not only are they nice to look at, but they’re awesome people,”
If this sort of stuff rocks your boat, you can order the calendar here.

Well-LOL on all of these comments* I did get rid of an EX and keep my ragdoll and an orange white Maine Coon way back when.
But let me add also, that they did not approve of him either. My current hubby loves our four maine coons. It cuts both ways Michael, as you so aptly stated. Meow

Good for you, Eva. You have to draw the line somewhere.
Wait wait wait, let’s not be too hasty here! All of these guys have possibilities. Hmmmm….of course, I’d keep the cat and the human male can come and visit and spend the night sometimes.
That is organised and smart.
Only if he doesn’t take up the cat’s space on the sofa or bed!
There you go! We’re definitely on the same page, Sarah.
Yes, Michael, all the guys have their own houses or apartments. No need for them to wear out their welcome at my place.
I got rid of a husband and kept the cats. Subsequent relationships have found that a man takes up too much room, too much time and makes too many demands!
I can see that with respect to women! It cuts two ways.
only if the guy is part of the deal!…. oh! wait! I already have 3 cats and a great guy… never mind.
Never mind the cats, I want the car!
LOL. This made me laugh too. The is one letter different between cat and car.
Now remove the men from the photos and I’d be more interested.
Laugh. That made me smile. I can see the point. One animal is utterly reliable and a great companion and the other is somewhat dubious in the role of companion.
