Cat Picture - OC Potraits with my three new babies
Quick backstory, after losing the love of my life, Penny Lane, last November at eighteen, I wasn't sure when I would be ready to adopt again. I always knew I wanted black cats and when my friend rescued some cats from a hoarding situation, including two black cats, I had to meet them. My friend also had their mom, and well, here is my new son Ripley, sister Wendy (the tongue), and their mom, Bidi Bidi Bom Bom (tabby). My friend Danielle (Cat Party Pet Portraits) offered to do a shoot combining my love of dinosaurs with my love of my new kitties, and this photo makes me so delighted and happy with how it came out.

u/Mobile-Ad-6756 11d ago
Guys he's famous for being both an incredible cat dad and podcaster! He even had a cat podcast at one point and he was heavily involved in the true crime podcast My Favorite Murder. He's a good guy!

u/first-born_unicorn 12d ago
I stopped to admire this absolute gem of a photo (obviously focused on the ADORABLE cats) and then went, huh - that looks like STEVEN!! Ray Morris, and sure enough it was!
So sorry to hear about Penny Lane ❤️ I lost my soul kitty Theodore at 14 earlier this year and also didn't know how / when I'd be ready to bring home someone new. I now have two sassy little someones who get into all sorts of mischief and have brought me so much joy.
Congrats on opening your home to more kitties!
Also- I sincerely hope this photo is being blown up on a canvas or something because it's a masterpiece!

u/StevenRayMorris 12d ago
Sorry to hear about your Theodore!! I'm sure he was the most special guy.

Also, this photo is 100/10 🖤🖤🖤

It me!
•
u/TheMarvelousSlutXoX 12d ago
AHHHHHHH This made my night lmao. I actually just went back and started listening to the pod again but I went all the way back to 2019 lol. Sorry for your loss with your previous baby, but so happy you got to rescue this little family. Also, as a Latina that grew up with Selena, the mom cats name sent me lmaooo. Now my bf and I won’t stop randomly singing the song (he doesn’t speak Spanish so he’s just saying random words that sound like the lyrics ha)

u/Chemical-Escape7872 12d ago
STEVEN!! You are a legend. I’ve listened to MFM for over a decade and you were such a staple on the show. Miss you!

This was their first time I put them in costumes myself. I was so surprised who ended up enjoying being in it the most (Wendy, the little goblin princess with her tongue out).
•
u/Tina-Tuna 11d ago
This is adorable, I am so very sorry for your loss. Please will you share your story and your post over on r/holdmycatnip it's purrfect ? ❤️

u/A_Random_Canuck 12d ago
Ok, that’s both cheesy as hell and ridiculously adorable. What gorgeous kitties.
•
u/lilaccadillac 12d ago
please inform how to train your dinosaurs to even pause for a second for pictures because mine become permanent gremlins in costume, fed or not.
also very sorry to hear about penny, she has moved a tinyyyy bit to the side of your heart couch so these new friends can sit with her. that was gracious of penny.

•
u/CatmoCatmo 12d ago
Heart couch ♥️. I absolutely love this. I’ve been a vet tech for over 20 years. Owners saying good bye to their beloved fur monsters is heartbreaking to watch on repeat. I’m always trying to find kind ways to speak about their pets. I’m totally stealing this. The positive impact this would make for so many grieving owners is palpable.
And yes, that was very gracious of Penny. What a kind little angel she is!
•
u/lilaccadillac 11d ago
Awww that's so sweet! I studied pre-vet in school but pivoted a few years in, what you do is an incredibly tough job and we are so lucky to have people like you! Dealing with people's beloved family members dying constantly is so heartbreaking! And please steal it haha I just thought it up. To me the "there is space in your heart for..." Is fine but I feel like to some people it implies their old pet is no longer there. Our pets are couch HOGS, bed HOGS, always in our space and we LOVE THEM. I like the idea of Penny hogging up all the space, but when her time comes, she welcomes new ones to cuddle with her. She's not gone, she's just putting up with the newbies even if they might be derpy and annoying. 💕

All of my cats are missing their teeth, except Wendy, she has one tooth, which I think is why her tongue is always in perma blep.

u/TrueCrimeRunner92 11d ago
Steven Ray Morris!!!! Your voice has been in my ears for so many years so thank you for bringing laughter to my life (either from your comments or producing). Losing your soul cat is so hard but I am glad that you now have three beautiful baby dinosaurs to keep you company. SSDGM and big hugs to you and your kits 💕

I’m sorry about Penny Lane. I lost my black cat Wednesday two years ago and was just devastated. I adopted another cat this past February.

•
u/StevenRayMorris 12d ago
If you see Wendy and Ripley full body they are very different. Wendy's tongue is out all the time cuz of her snaggle tooth, shorter whiskers, and long poofy tail. Ripley is a big boy and has a tiny rat tail!
