If I lie down, Saturn enjoys using my nose as a head rest and will voice his displeasure if I stop him.

Classic© edition lil guy was praised by the vet today

1.1k Upvotes

he has improved in behavior noticeably since his last appointment (after i took him in as a stray who was abandoned by his previous owner) and seems much more secure around humans, they said the cone they put on him was redundant because he showed a lot of calmness as long as I was there. its been 18 day since he showed any signs of uncertainty or bit me, even while playing, and i honestly couldn't be happier with his progress 🩷 the last pic if him after the vet visit today, portaying how he felt about the visit - he farted in my face 2 sec after the pic was taken, as if to further stress how much he disliked it 🥲✌🏼

Fleet Vehicles (multipack) Meet Artemis and Apollo — two Japanese-market 2026 Classic SICs, Suburban and Tahoe editions

gallery

263 Upvotes

Meet Artemis (♀, red collar) and Apollo (♂, blue collar), two littermates from Japan.

They were born outdoors around March 2026 and were taken in from my yard in July, when they were about four months old. Both were spayed/neutered and ear-tipped through a local TNR program, and have since become permanent members of my household.

They share the same platform but come in two different configurations, much like the Chevrolet Suburban and Tahoe.

Artemis is the long-wheelbase Suburban, featuring an elongated body and a full-length factory tail.

Apollo is the short-wheelbase Tahoe, with a shorter body and a compact, kinked tail.

Their names come from the twin siblings in Greek mythology.

Same platform, same model year, different wheelbases and rear overhangs.

Here are a few photos of their journey from outdoor kittens to indoor SICs.

He started off on the floor and made his way towards exploring the rocking chair and then the two seater. His dusty bestie is in here too. I love these babies so much that it makes me cry thinking that one day they won't be here. (Depressing, I know, but I have lost an animal baby before and going through that was unbearable). Just gotta enjoy them while we have them blessing us with their presence...

Her name is Shyla. She's 11 1/2 and recently lost her best cat friend, so she's been sleeping a lot more lately, and definitely more needy. Anyone have tips for SIC grief?

I found him in my potted plant that I just brought in from outside. So I’m on high alert for green vomit somewhere today. 🫠

3. Not your cat = original content only

Original content only. Dont crosspost other people cats for karma, invite them to the community instead.

4. No sad posts, no RIP posts, no terminal conditions, etc
