I've learned to give them time, other than Tom and Jerri (brother and sister), all my cats have been introduced to a group that was already here. Two years ago, I had two cats at the same time, one from a friend of mine whose cat(Neko) was terrified of the dog in her girlfirend's house, and refused to come out, for months, and the Pizza Hut cat (Moggi-Nikki) who arrived the week before Neko.

One of your cats doesn't look very happy Laura... 
The only time I've lived with two cats, the first cat in the house was eternally unhappy with the interloper who arrived later. My friend Rinie, whom you know, experienced the same thing when her second cat arrived. In my case, the two cats never did more than tolerate one another. Rinie's pair it is unclear whether they're playing or fighting...

Taz looks like a roughy Laura. All appear to be well loved, which doesn't surprise me in the least. Here is a larger copy of my avatar... with Sally, who would stay in my arms forever if I'd let her.
Unfortunately, Sally did not return one morning after a nightly adventure. Whether it was a fox or a car that got her we never learned. The two young girls from the family who shared Sally with me, were devastated. But Tommy survived...

Most apartments that allow cats require they be declawed. I guess some people can't figure out how to get a cat to use a scratching post.
Her's another shot of Lovie in a somewhat more relaxed pose than the catnip-crazed feline I got a few weeks ago. I know, vacuuming is needed. Still in heavy shedding mode.

Lovie looks like a dear, but that's some wild EXIF that's showing here!

105 MM 1/60 @ F4 is what the exif shows in Faststone. I haven't a clue as to what happened with the exif. Maybe it converted MM to nanometers? BTW, that works out to a 46 mile focal length plus a few feet. How many tripods would that require?

Been shooting Canon and Olympus for the better half of a decade, first real foray into the Dark Side with the D750 - my cats make for my subjects now that the kids run for the hills when daddy busts out the camera...
Besides being in ergonomic bizarro land, it's pretty clear the D750 is an amazing piece of kit...

I love this thread. Cats are not particularly easy to photograph well and the images posted here are well done.
Here is one of Leonardo making himself comfortable in the fresh laundry. This was hand held. I took several and liked his expression better in many of the others, but unfortunately, with the low light, I was not able to hold still enough.

very nice big cats Morris and DG30. The lynx's fur looks like it's very soft to touch, is it?

Thank you NightOwl,
I did not touch the lynx, I don't think that would be wise. The sable feels like a large domestic cat though much stronger. It swatted at me one time and missed. The power in it's body was quite noticeable.

Lovie doing her best to drive me crazier. 8 feet up at the top of the kitchen cabinets. This is one of those days where she makes me expect Jackson Galaxy at the door, offering his services. This is by far the most athletic cat I have ever been owned by.
Here we go with the strange exif. 1/60 @ f4 D800 pop up flash and Siggy 24-105 @ 62MM.
Atop the Kitchen Cabinets.

My first thought was it's a picture of "Boychek" owned by a friend of mine, but without the tufts on the ears.
