I can't wait to see more pics of your wild cat if you can ever get them up here.

I’ve got a few videos on line.

If you go to that video you can click my user name and the other videos of him will come up.

Aww poor Toby.
I can tell by that picture that he was a very proud cat.

I’ve had all types of cats over the years, but I’ve never had any cat that had nearly as much character or individuality as Nova does.
He’s very talkative.
He plays in the kitchen sink and bathtub when there water in them.
Toilet bowl lid is always closed!
When taken out for a walk, he is always leading the way.
He plays fetch with just about anything.
His favourite toy is a stuffed Toy snow-leopard.
And always on the move.
He’s either hunting something or running around jumping on the fridge.
Knocking anything that’s on a shelf, onto the ground.
Even pictures off the walls.

Servals are not good climbers, but my god can they jump high.
The highest I have seen Nova jump so far is about 6.5-7 ft ( the height of the fridge)
He doesn’t need to get a running start or anything.
Just loads up at the foot of the fridge and boom, he’s on top of it.

For the first 3 months or so of his life, he did not like being pet.
The breeder told us he was well socialized, bottle fed and handled constantly.

Well when he got home here, he was very wild acting still.

He still loved interaction and playing with everyone, but it took probably a week for me to be able to hold him without him trying to fight to get away.
He would not...repeat not, cuddle ever.

Now, at night when it’s bedtime he will cuddle, but other than that good luck lol.

Thanks.

Yes, he was very proud, but very loyal, and was a very good cat. He minded...and he knew he was loved, as spoiled as he was.

I checked out your channel. Really neat cat and looks like a boat load of personality! Idk if I could handle so much wildness, Tigger is a maniac enough as she is. But I admire your Nova! No way my cats could reach the top of the fridge like that. Talk about incredible leg muscles... dang.

Thanks for sharing.

a reply to: Crosswinds

He is incredibly muscular.
You know in those Nat Geo Shows when they show wild tigers they are so muscular, you can see the muscles moving under their fur?
That's what it's like with Nova.
When hes walking around, you can see his muscles moving.
Then his thighs... Oh those thighs lol.
I joke around saying I would pay $20.99 a lb for those thighs.

a reply to: Macenroe82

That's a lot of cat.

Should enter Nova as a fitness model. Ha!

Yes, Charlie is happy. I rescued him as a kitten from dad's place.

And Toby was just ready for me to get off ATS and pay attention to him, hence the face. lol

I miss all my cats, but I miss Oscar the most.

He was special.





I don't wanna cry.

a reply to: Liquesence

Sounds like some awesome furry friends. May your late furballs rest in the happiest of kitty peace. I love Oscar's tail! Aww!

Here's another pic of Gleep. He's a dash ornament on my MIB van (I've actually had DOD contractors and engineers come out and search the grounds around my van when I've parked in those kinds of places, it's always humorous. Scares the ever loving daylight out of 'em).

a reply to: Liquesence

Very sorry for your loss.
I can tell Oscar was a character as well.

Please don't cry.
Oscar is no doubt happy, where ever he may be roaming now.

This one amuses me..



Same shepherd in the background, with my old gal in the foreground. She was with me for 15 years.. We had a very good run.
