Mancat Monday with Casper

A friend of mine once asked me which of my cats my favourite was.  I replied “they are all my favourite and I like each one best.”  I'm not sure if anyone can understand that but I mean it in earnest.  Each one of my boy’s distinct personality and quirky habits makes me love them so completely. For any of you who are new to my blog, there are pictures on my sidebar of the boys along with their name and an attribute I feel describes them but I think I’d like to elaborate.

Let's start with Casper.

gorgeous boy

Casper the Fair:  Fair of face and fair in action and deed.  I fell in love with Casper instantly and thought him the most striking cat I had ever seen.  He is beautiful but he is also so much more; equitable, calm, benevolent, generous and loving, truly a prince among cats!

gentle alpha cat
If it wasn't for Casper's gentle nature we would not have the harmonious household that we enjoy everyday :-)

Since I have five cats, I will feature one of the boys each day this week.  Tomorrow, Benjamin.....

Casper is such a gentleman and mentor to the other 4 which means they have learned from the best!!
We look forward to reading about his bros and I Madi always enjoy looking at handsome, well mannered, loving mancats.

Casper is sure one handsome dude! We know what you mean, there are six hereall favorites and all loved completely!

Marg said...

I feel the same way about all the ones here. That is great that they are all your favorites. Casper you are so handsome. We think you are just terrific. Can't wait to hear about all the others. Take care.

Rene said...

We agree with you--they are ALL favorites for different reasons.

Casper is such a nice looking mancat <3
I´m the only cat here so I guess my mommie loves me most ;-)

Katnip Lounge said...

Mommy says she loves us all equally. We wonder about that when she gets the squirt bottle out.

Casper, you are so handsome! The Baby says she has a little crush on you. ::blush::

Andrea and the Celestial Kitties said...

I feel the same way about my kitties! Even if they have their favorites between us humans..
Casper is such a gorgeous kitty! How in the world do you keep from smooching him all day long?

Sparkle said...

My human cheated - she actually DOES have a favorite cat. Unfortunately that cat is no longer around... she died over 10 years ago...

LP said...

I know exactly what you mean Cat! I love all my kids truly, madly, deeply for as many reasons as they are each unique!
Casper, you are a wonderful boy and big brofur! That's because you have a great Mama :)

I do agree with you, Cat, it is so difficult to say that one cat is THE favourite one! I love all my cats, they all have something special... Generally I prefer tuxies, but I have a white cat, semi feral, and I just love him! He is so sweet, and when he is clean he is so white, but sometimes we wonder where he spent time, when he seems to have taken up the job of chimneysweeper for a while! :-)

Smoochies to the whole family!

Casper is a gorgeous mancat. So wonderful to hear about his lovely personality.

The Island Cats said...

Our mom says the same thing...she loves us all...in different ways...she can't pick a favorite.

Casper sure is a handsome guy.

meowmeowmans said...

We love Casper! And we love all of your other boys, too. We can hardly wait to read the rest of this week's posts. :)

Memories of Eric and Flynn said...

Casper is a handsome gentle boy. I know exactly what you mean about them all being your favourites. I feel the same about Eric and Flynn and both have different things that I love about them. It would be impossible to choose one over the other.

CCL Wendy said...

I understand exactly what you mean. It's like someone asking you which of your children you like best. You love each for who they truly are.

Casper is a real sweetheart, and it seems pure of heart and deed.

Pretinha said...

Casper além de bonito você tem um temperamento encantador. Adorei conhecê-lo melhor. Até amanhã.

Tamago said...

I understand, my boys are both my favorite, too! They are so different and I have different relationship with them but I have same love for each of them.
Casper is truly beautiful, with beautiful fur and beautiful heart!

I used to have a white cat too, and she was quite beautiful. I think Casper is gorgeous (and well-named!) What a cute pink nose :)

Cat and DOG Chat With Caren said...

love the idea of featuring each one of your 5 cats every day of the week, Casper IS simply stunning!

weaverpat said...

I love these individual tributes to each of the boys!
No wonder you fell instantly in love with Casper. He is a darling boy! Not only beautiful to look at but also seems to have the gentlest personality. Bless you, Casper.

Kwee Cats and Art said...

Hi Casper! We never get tired of seeing any of you guys. Your Mom is like our Mumsy, she says we all her favorites and the best! Kitty Moms are great, aren't they?

Texas, a Cat in... Austin said...

Hiya Casper!
What a sweet face you have!

Bernadette said...

Casper is quite handsome!

Favorite? That would be like asking Mimi who was her favorite kitten. All those loves are different, but equal in my heart.

Sweet Purrfections said...

We think choosing ONE kitty as a favorite is an unfair question.

Jans Funny Farm said...

Jan knows exactly what you mean. She says the same thing about all of us. Each one of us is her favorite. We're all different.

Cory said...

I like to think I'm mom's favorite, but I know she loves each of us deeply and for all different reasons. Casper is such a special boy. We can hardly wait to read more about all of you!

I think mom would call me the soulful innocent.

The Furries of Whisppy said...

Casper looks like such a gentle cat. Mommy always say to us, "you're my favorite Cosmo, and you're my favorite Ling, my absolute favorite Whisky.....". Hahaha.

Kathy said...

I absolutely LOVE Casper's close up photo, with little droplets of water on his whiskers and that look on his face!
Their like children! Not just one could be a favorite!
