@thecatreviewer.bsky.social this is Smokey Lemon who I met two days in a row in my neighbourhood. I hope I see them again soon. They are v soft and get around well with only one eye. 10/10 for balance and good looks. 9/10 as they were not keen on a head stroke. Will try again to improve the score.

@thecatreviewer.bsky.social A wiggly barrel of a cat living their best life on top of this warm electrics cabinet. Enjoyed the Twiglet my child offered it. 10/10

This well-camouflaged beauty appeared on my walk today. They sniffed my fingers, made a flehmen face and backed off a little (presumably detected my own cats). Obviously cautious so I will try again for pets if I see them again. @thecatreviewer.bsky.social

@thecatreviewer.bsky.social Enormous grey fluff. +5 for flips and rolls, +7 for massive chonk, solid 12/10

@thecatreviewer.bsky.social Met this distinguished older gentleman. +7 for generous smooges and purrs, +3 for soft fur

This peanut always stops by for scritches in between shifts trying to murder my frogs. 9.5/10, would scritch again, half point deducted for attempted amphibian slaughter @thecatreviewer.bsky.social

A timid tortie, 10/10 for bravery @thecatreviewer.bsky.social

Ginormous Turkish lion securing prime beachfront sunbed and ready to defend against all rivals feline or human. 10/10 for chumminess and physics-defying mass. Would stand in awe of again. @thecatreviewer.bsky.social

I was on my way to pick up my new specs and got half way & a guy walked past & said, "you won't get through there, mate." "Why?" "There's a jumper on the bridge, he's just jumped & they're closing the road as it's a crime scene. Wasn't a total bust though, I saw that lovely black cat again.

@thecatreviewer.bsky.social 10/10 for cuteness & friendliness. I picked him up & he sat in my arms for a good minute taking scritches & purring.

Look at the floof! They were outside a very Halloweeny house appropriately and were very keen for fusses. 10/10 for being cat. +5 for seasonal style, +10 for fusses, +5 for bobtail confidence, who needs a full tail? Excellent cat, will hopefully fuss again. @thecatreviewer.bsky.social

Classic overreaction to something going wrong at work has left me ragged. GAD is totally pernicious and evil, calm the fuck down Billy you stupid bitch.

I had my first contact with Pretty for ages yesterday, the first time in years! We’ve been friends for a while (she’s on my usual daily walk route) but she’s been a bit scared to come out to see me. Had to trespass a bit to stroke her, but totally worth it. Lovely puss. @thecatreviewer.bsky.social

I prefer this Two Factor Authentication method. HMRC will be sending this device round to your house for endorsement. Only one covering all of SE London 1/10 for efficiency but 10/10 for thoroughness cc @thecatreviewer.bsky.social

Another wonderful Queenie encounter! Soft, small, delicate, sat on my lap, 100/10 @thecatreviewer.bsky.social

@thecatreviewer.bsky.social 57463 Nectar points

@thecatreviewer.bsky.social This sweet and elegant lady accompanied her staff for lunch in a restaurant in #Perugia. 10/10 for looks and kindness. 😻

Patted a cloud! 10/10 for soft fur, sweet mews and chirps, and enthusiastic smooging @thecatreviewer.bsky.social

@thecatreviewer.bsky.social Guardian of Madryn Street, Liverpool (birthplace of Ringo Starr) and clearly accustomed to lots of admiration from passing Beatles tourists. 10/10

@thecatreviewer.bsky.social Met this cool customer, uninterested in anything but snoozing and tried to bite me when I tried give him a stroke. 10/20.

A magnificent profile on this slightly aloof barge-dweller at Little Venice, London @thecatreviewer.bsky.social

@thecatreviewer.bsky.social Beautifully coloured chap, very vocal - before filming, wouldn't shut up, much miaow-purring "breeow", rolled around ON THE KERB if you please, then jumped up at the merest tap on the wall. Note braced paw deployment. Went all tranquil, heard a bird, forgot we existed.

First Bluesky post in ages. Just to say, my previously under bed cat is now a friendly sofa cat who just wants strokes and fuss. A year ago he wouldn't come near a human. Now, he just wants strokes - from me, but we'll get there with other people. What a lad. @thecatreviewer.bsky.social

Easy @thecatreviewer.bsky.social 10/10 to the tuxedo beauty who brightened yesterday's walk. Perfect Poirot moustache, friendly head bumps, what's not to love. Also 10/10 to its long-haired pal that arrived out of the blue, because what's better than a new cat friend if not two cat friends at once?

@thecatreviewer.bsky.social I regularly spot this gentle, fluffy senior citizen next to a very busy main road on my way to swimming. 10/10 for being quietly affectionate, but in a cool and off-hand way, and for being completely unfazed by a hair-raisingly hectic main road.

@thecatreviewer.bsky.social 12/10 for kinky harness

Winston, the pubcat at the Live and Let Live in #Cambridge. Accepted fuss, but was more intent on chewing some grass. 9/10 for dedication to later vomiting. @thecatreviewer.bsky.social

@thecatreviewer.bsky.social local garden centre cat testing out the furniture. £499, cat not included. Stirred from slumber long enough for a fuss. 10/10 for marketing skills.

@thecatreviewer.bsky.social exceptionally friendly cat in Nohedes, in the Pyrénées-Orientales, southern France. He even has a street named after him! 10/10 for local hospitality

@thecatreviewer.bsky.social morning cuppa with this fella, matches the soft furnishings beautifully, eleventy-hundred out of ten

@thecatreviewer.bsky.social Amsterdam always has good cats. This one is missing a tail and falls over with affection for strangers. 10/10.

@thecatreviewer.bsky.social This is the sweetest little cat I met in Amsterdam EVER. She has a home. I saw her on my way home running in for dinner <3 10/10

Unexpected bonus puss at my local station. Resisted cat kisses as was obviously intent on catching a train to Catford Bridge. 9/10 for determination. @thecatreviewer.bsky.social

@thecatreviewer.bsky.social met a beautiful purring kitty cat, who actually came and spoke to me and NOT my other half! Triumph 🥰. Definitely 10 out of 10

@thecatreviewer.bsky.social The look of love from this floofy-tailed friend 💛 10/10

Pouring one out for my little buddy Spaghetti who sadly died today. She was a total nightmare and completely brilliant and I am gutted.

@thecatreviewer.bsky.social Four cats, none of them mine, were at my back door this morning. I gave them breakfast. What else could I do? 😸

The magnificent Hodge at Southwark Cathedral. A very distinguished gentleman. Patient and courteous to a range of visitors. Happy to accept a gentle fuss. A solid out of 10 @thecatreviewer.bsky.social

This kitty came to say hi to me on my walk 💕

@thecatreviewer.bsky.social Boulangerie Chat in Montmatre neglecting his baking duties. Perhaps he’s doing a pricing review. 10/10 for chill factor and dodging yappy Parisian micro dogs.

Spotted this sad chap outside a window high in an apartment block in Riga, Latvia. @thecatreviewer.bsky.social

Gorgeous cat with her own book nook. Very attentive with varied selection of reading materials. 12/10 @thecatreviewer.bsky.social

Tummy tickling temptation: 10/10. Practicality: minus several million... @thecatreviewer.bsky.social

While away we encountered this fine tuxedo cat just outside Zandvoort station. Emerged from the long grass mewing for fusses then followed us all the way up the footpath. +10 for welcoming travellers, -5 for getting a bit stalky, still an overall score of 25/10. @thecatreviewer.bsky.social

@thecatreviewer.bsky.social Regular visitor who always brings much excitement. Wants their solid head and frame rubbed, then flips on their back. Gives a little nip but only playfully. No question a 10/10.
