Yeah, that was taken in the middle of an animated conversation. I never get attractive candids taken. Only candids with my face distorted and my mouth open in an awkward position. We were actually really happy with our results!

Edit: Ah, forgot, I had a bunch of pictures on my phone!

Well, I dismembered it which should buy me some time. Unfortunately, aside from tasting of eldritch horrors man was not meant to know (which apparently are just sort of moist and mildly sour), it tastes of absolutely nothing.

I fear for my quasi-existent soul.

Also, Gwyn's pictures impress me.

Woah! That's pretty cool! When you went all the way to male, I couldn't tell you original sex anymore. All without changing anything but your clothes (and hiding the long hair). This gives me hope!
Also, you're pretty .

Kangaroos too. And they're actually a better source of meat than cows because they don't pollute with their gastric emissions.

If you two qualify as "old" I'm hesitant to ask where I fall on the scale. Venerable? Ancient? Dust?

Old cat is glary in the sunlight, haha.

Reminds me of one of my cats. she's the friendliest one of the bunch, but she permanently looks like she's scowling because of the way her eyes are slanted and folded.
