Solar-powered? Can you have any doubts?

Now I get it – they recharge their batteries during the day and run them down at night. 🙂
That is a fact!
Hi there !!!! I love these pics, my cat does the same thing …

They know that the sun is a source of energy, I am sure of that :star: All the best to you. Aquileana 😎
What a cute kitty! Thanks for sharing that photo! [Incidentally, I really enjoy your posts. They are informative, nicely-illustrated, and well worth the time spent reading!]
Now that is a beautiful face.
Aw! Andy says “Mrow!”, which, as I’ve noted, I think means “thank you!” in Catinese. 🙂
I’ve been trying to convince the human fur years that I NEED time out in the sun fur my “battery”- she just looks at me and calls me a “silly kitty!” *(tail FLAP)!*
…but it’s true! Kitties are solar!
Hehehe -I know!😹
I love seeing cats lounging in the sun.
No more than they love doing it! (I do, too! Nohing like a cat taking in the rays.)
Cats ! Can’t do without them and can’t figure out what to do with them some days. 😀
LOL! 🙂
That gorgeous face 🙂
Andy says “Mrow!” (Which I am reasonably certain is Catinese for “thank you!”)
Andy is absolutely glowing! Sunspot time is winter is much appreciated by our cats too.
The red highlights really pop out in strong sun. Hard to imagine this is actually a black cat! Different light, thought, and both Andy and Dougy have color shifts.
That is just the case with my female, too – when there is not much light she looks black – and when the sun comes out, she is all red-brownish.
Thew boys’ mother is a tabby who kind of brownish-red (tabby markings) and sand-colored (background). I can see her markings faintly showing in the boys’ black coats. Their father is Birman, white body with black points, face, legs, and tail. In some light, you can see this pattern in the boys’ coats, too. I think of them as black cats, but that is subject to change and the type and angle of the light striking their hair! :\
That first pix is one terrific catch – I LOVE IT!!!!
I like that one better of the two, too! Andy is wound up this morning, yowling and chasing around the place, and this was a rare moment where he recharged his batteries….! 🙂
Ha! Ha! For the scientist in us….this is funny. They look solar powered. We posted a post & are still looking for the image …so little known.
The way he was running around after I took these two photos, I’d say he over-charged his batteries a bit! (He was yowling and scratching on the scratching post, followed by hopping into a box and playing pop-goes-the-weasel-with-a-touch-of-Bob-the-Builder (he “modified the box with his teeth…!) Any time the boys act like that, they need the other brother to come out and play or for me to get out the wand toys to discharge some energy. Of course, if neither the other brother or I gets involved, the wound-up kitty tears around the place making a horrific yowl guaranteed to curdle blood and scare off naughty terrorists. He’s resting now on top of his favorite blue carrier perch. I may try to catch him to give him his medicine since he may be worn out for the moment.
[I did catch him and give him his medicine, but he was still too wound up. I had to wrap him in a towel to keep him immobilized so he didn’t struggle – this is a blood pressure medicine, so it seems counter productive to do anything that increases it, eh!?]
Ha! Ha! Shenanigans as usual.
