The cats of OPEforum

[Catbuster]

A couple of shots of Cats at work from this year.









I’ve been doing a lot of engineering and bridge work, which has limited my exposure to Cats recently. I’ve seen a lot of Link-Belt, Grove and Terex lately where I used to see a lot of D8-9-10 and 349s, 374s, 390s and 6015s. I’d have to dig through the pictures to find those.

TigerX has passed on a couple of years ago now. He's the only cat I've ever had that liked to ride in the truck.





TigerX as a pup.

This is my oldest cat. She’s roughly 20 years old and I turn 22 soon. She’s been here all my life.


This is her in the mid to late 2000s when she was still relatively young.


This is her now. Took this picture today.

Bunch of Cats (777s) being loaded by a Kommunist Kat (PC1250) with a D6 for cleanup and final grade on this job a couple of years ago. There was a 6015 and a bigger Kommunist (PC2000) on on this job. Plus a lot of D8s-9s and the odd 10.

I’d have taken some more, but the owners were kinda stingy with pictures on this site.

Oddly enough, I am allergic to actual kitty cats. I start sneezing like you would not believe and my eyes water when I get around one or their dander. Which kinda sucks, because I’ve found that they like me.

Very few threads stay true, that's one of the great things here on the forum, typically there is a whole lot more you get to learn from tangents even if they are UBIs.

Wanda, she came after me and my pup.
Pup followed me as I was getting greens for the chicken.

I’m surprised my house’s foundation hasn’t been compromised yet with this beast running around!

This cat loves to run around the house. She’s young and energetic. The only female cat I’ve ever been around that sounds like a rhino galloping around the house.

What's she tipping the scale at? Ours started getting portly so we started feeding less. One lost 3/4 lb and the other gained 2 lb. Go figure.

The one that gained weight probably realized they were getting less, ate their portion and went after some of the others...

We have a couple of outside cats that are that way, one eats really fast so they can edge the other out of what they have left.

She’s never been truly weighed, but I estimate somewhere between 14 and 16 pounds.

I have 3 female cats, all three are sterilized (actually one is castrated due to complications during the procedure).

All three eat like crazy, yet all three still hunt and neither is "fat".

Maybe I just got lucky.

They are two sisters and a daughter of one of them.
I need to get a picture of them together.

Tomcats will get poofy once sterilized!

Same deal with dogs, sterilized males will gain weight , females not so much.
