Orange cats FTW..
I had a barn cat that would hang out with me years ago when working on the race car. She'd sit on the fender and watch. Occasionally she'd lay on top of my tools until I petted her. My wife, girlfriend at the time, brought pizza over one night. I tossed a piece on to the floor for the cat. She was licking the grease off the pepperoni when a mouse walked out from under a toolbox, grabbed the whole ass pepperoni and drug it back under the toolbox. Um. Brave mouse, I thought.
He's a hunter/killer for sure! He lives for it. His sister, Ruby, just isn't so into it.∆∆∆∆∆
That's a GOOD kitty !
Extra stitches behind the ears...
Cute! They've definitely got the stares. What's their names?This is what I woke up to one day. They like staring at me until I do the right thing which is feed them even though it isn't food o'clock.
Yeah, some just aren't into it. Oatmeal is well fed so it's not just about the food. And he does eat them; it's wild to watch him eat a mouse. He is so precise with his mouth, he just kinda chomps and works it around in his mouth and drops the entrails and tail on the ground.I had a barn cat that would hang out with me years ago when working on the race car.

I looked back at the cat and she was just staring at me for another piece. Totally not interested in the mouse or even taking her own food back away from it. "None for you, you worthless thing". 🙄
I had a lot of fun drag racing and 1,000hp street cars are a blast. But a well tuned two stroke in tight woods and a 100+hp street bike are WAY more fun at a fraction of the cost, financially and timewise. The only "car" I have now is a rusty old F150 that gets maybe a thousand miles a year put on it. My hotrod days are done.Yeah, some just aren't into it.

The real question though; you kept this girlfriend, did you keep the racecar?
Sounds like fun! It was more of a rhetorical question based on the old jokes of racecars and marriage.I had a lot of fun drag racing and 1,000hp street cars are a blast.
