This is Alex, he's been having daily or twice daily walks for 10 years now. He still thinks he needs to act extra cute, and I'm not going to tell him otherwise!
Yep!

Sending you love and soothing. I'm a non binary AFAB who was diagnosed with endometriosis over 10 years ago via laparoscopic surgery. Endo sucks. I'm coming to the end of my reproductive years, thank fark, it's been a painful ride.

ooh amazing album, there was a point where I would listen to this almost daily. Pearl's Girl is a standout track for me, but the entire album is gold.
Yep, he lives for it. I adopted him when he was 5 years old and trained him as soon as he got used to me. He he gets very excited when I get his harness out and loves to go for walks. He's 15 now and still keen everyday unless it's really cold.
He's real! He's on Instagram - alexthebengal And he's ridiculously photogenic
You're a deviant!
This is Alex and he's 15. Still very active but not quite as stubborn as he used to be!
oh wobbly cats are super special. Give him a squish from me.
Ohhh you Melty my heart.
Yep. I trained him when I got him, age 5. It wasn't that hard. When I get his walking jacket and leash out now he gets excited and waits for me to put it on and then goes to the front door and waits impatiently for me to walk him.
aaw. He's only started to slow down in the last year. Unfortunately we were attacked by a dog in our front yard a month or so ago and it's put a little dent in his confidence. Mind you, his confidence was ridiculous to begin with. He does have his little old man modes though and he's gone completely deaf.
Adding my one of my cats to into the mix. This is him from a few months ago, wanting to get up onto someone's roof! We walk twice a day and have been doing so for 10 years! He's 15 years old and I've had him since he was 5.
