This is my favorite thread, hands down.
My cats are indoor cats as well and my neighbors cats likes to crawl all over my bus too but I haven't been near a camera when they have. Maybe someday I'll have a pic of a kitty and my bus! _________________ '71 Westfalia |

What is this "indoor only" cat you speak of? I tried that once, and mine nearly killed me to get outside. _________________ MAKE FORUMS GREAT AGAIN

They need to be started indoor only as kittens. Otherwise, I don't think it's a good idea or fair to the cat. If they didn't eat so many birds and get run over by cars, I'd be happy to let our two furballs out.
My cats would not be happy if they were taken on a bus ride. At all. Once a year to the vet's office has already used up several of their lives. _________________ -------

One of my cats is indoor only and I know in his early life he must have been outdoors and adventurous. The amazing jumps and crazy runs around the apartment were fun to watch when we first got him. Now that he's been inside over a year, he's mostly a blob on the couch. |

I happen across a few cool cats along the way, this one appropriated the interior of the Road Warrior as I visited Bellingham Washington last summer.

One of the wild strays got accidently locked in my bus. It sure got out of there quick a few days later when I opened the door. Fortunately he didn't trash the interior. About every day they set off the car alarms. The strays are a real PITA. _________________ 71 Superbug

Here's Goldie:
It's a dark picture but... she's a dark kitty. She's a 9 year old Bombay. This is sort of a group picture of all my bus inhabitants. The cat, Spin, and my flying Pig _________________ '73 Transporter 1.7L Dual Carb

I think so. After watching a special about cat breeds I'm pretty convinced he a Mainecoon and he does love to climb. _________________ 1979 Westy, 2 Liter, Automatic |
