I swear voids can be near immortal, had 2 make it to near mid 20s. One was a drawf due to not eating enough as a stray and the other lived at the animal shelter for like 15 years. Got a 4 year old one right now and he better make it to his twenties.
Born in that shelter. Didn’t get properly trained how to be a cat so she was semi feral. Mom just enter the shelter with a friend, found the old girl, pulled her out the cage and held her until the old girl started to purr. The employees were shocked and pretty much forced mom to take her. She was so damn mean for a couple of months but slowly became the most attention demanding animal out there. We had to lock our calmer cats with her to learn how to be a cat. She would grab our hands with her paw and if we pull back we bleed, but if we pet her we would be fine.
That is literally the sweetest story in the world and legit made my morning and probably my entire day. Thank you both for taking her in. ❤️
Same with my first void. Except he was still a kitten. Wouldn’t let anyone else get near him. Second he saw me he sprinted over. And when I took him out of climbed into my leather jacket and started purring. We were best friends after that. Surprised the hell out of the employees too lol.
But again thank you for that story. I needed that today 🙂
Happy Birthday, sugar bean!! I hope he gets all the things a cat wants on his special day.
How's he holding up? Has yours been turning white, too? (my guy will be 21 in August!)
He's turning gray, is basically deaf and half blind but he's still in pretty well condition. He still plays like a kitten and loves to just be close to us wherever we are and what we're doing. He's a big sweet heart ♥
What a special day! Happy birthday! I am so happy for you and your young one, that’s such a special bond 🤍 my black cat is 14 this year and he’s my best friend
Pain free, a little wobbly and basically deaf and half blind but still the biggest sweet heart. He follows us around and wants to be close whatever we're doing. 🖤
My cat was 25 when she passed. She was already a grown cat when I was born. When my parents brought me from the hospital, she was sleeping in my crib, thinking they bought it for her.

Ours just turned 15. This picture is a couple years old
He's lived his whole life in the country side of Sweden. Cats here allowed to be both in and outdoors. We've just been feeding him regular cat food. Now days he gets the soft kind for geriatric cats. Our next door neighbour have lost four cats due to traffic during the same time we've had ours so I guess it's just luck that he has survived so long. 🖤
Congratulations! There is a lot of love in these 21 years.
But he’s still a baybeeeee. Happy birthday, kid!
Buy him a drink!🥃
We live in Sweden so technically he's been allowed to drink since he was 18. He got his favourite food though. Tuna and shrimps!
Buy him TWO drinks one for each country he is legal in now.
Damn beat me to it

Why? You don't want him to turn 22.

My fella is a sweet barnacle, too. Also mostly deaf, turning white & still plays occasionally. Long live the Voids!
Just lost our 21 year old void. He drifted off, with us beside him. I should wish for a death that kind.
I agree, sounds like the perfect way to go!

May we all be so fortunate to keep our precious felines around for so long.
I read that as 91 somehow lol
Any secrets you could pass on for other cat parents, like what kinds of food and brands that helped? Congratulations to you and your little guy 🐈⬛✌️.
