2024 edition SIClet It’s been 17 years since we brought an SIC home and this time we got dupes.

Godzilla, King of the Monsters (aka Gojira, aka Goji), and his dupe, Rodan.

Yeah, I'm going to have to take in this random wandering SIC outside to match my house SIC ASAP.

Just bring the cat in, but don’t let both cats be in the same room as BF until he figures out there are two.

Reddit told me my cat - which looked exactly like this kitten when he was a youngin- is not a standard issue cat but a tactical cat. Is this true??

u/VapoursAndSpleen Jun 01 '24

Tactical issue cats are cats that have patchy color changes in their fur, like torties, IIRC. Still cute.

Thanks for the clarification Vapours and Spleen

SICs have predominantly brown/black stripes. These look more gray, which qualify as TICs

The dark heart-shaped nose is over-the-top cute!

u/die_hubsche Jun 01 '24

You know, I never even realized it was heart shaped somehow! Thank you for pointing that out.

Good way for people who don’t live in the house to tell them apart.

Oh you’re totally right!

Your local cat rescue will be so happy to hear from you when you’re ready 💗

u/Feisty_Pop_1995 Jun 01 '24

I would love to, but I recently adopted a boy after losing mine in 2022 and we currently have one but one day!

u/Pretend-Sundae-2371 Jun 01 '24

Oh man they're SO cute

u/die_hubsche Jun 01 '24

We think so too, even if Miller moth hunting is driving them to break any object not attached to its surface 😂 so now all our plants are behind closed doors

u/WoozleVonWuzzle Jun 02 '24

It's good to have backup.

u/die_hubsche Jun 02 '24

Redundancy!

u/Snappybrowneyes Jun 02 '24

Omg they are ADORABLE!!

I see that the human in the first pic is doing his best to blend in with the SICs. 😹

u/die_hubsche Jun 02 '24

Hahaha we always accidentally dress alike 😂Usually it’s me and the other human but clearly it’s not just that.

u/astrotim67 Jun 01 '24

Congrats…they’re much better in pairs when getting them young.

u/RaptorOO7 Jun 02 '24

How cute and love the names. The bet they will live up to those names for sure.👍

3

u/die_hubsche Jun 02 '24

Their broken object count says they’re def living up to their names. Lol going from an elderly cat to kittens is quite the transition.
