Okay so here’s a thread introducing my cats Alice and Gizmo
This is Alice. I adopted her when she was 1.5 years old after a bad breakup. She likes being carried around, open windows, and hanging out between the shower curtain and the liner. Very naughty. Incredibly sweet. Sometimes sleeps on my face.
This is Gizmo. I adopted him in 2016 when he was 1.5 years old as well. At first he was terrified of me & still gets terrified of strangers. He likes cuddling under blankets, playing fetch, and sleeps on my head every night. Oh and he has a bed next to my work desk.
Here’s them together. They often get jealous if the other is getting attention and they aren’t. On my days off Gizmo tends to sleep on my head and Alice curls up on my chest if I take a nap. They are both very playful and love a good head scratch. They are my world.

I often get asked “how do you tell them apart?” So:
- different voices
- different personalities
- different facial structure
- different purrs
- different levels of mischief
- if a stranger is here who’s out and sniffing and who’s hiding
