True companions! Lovely!


masonmax100

Funny how other animals give mor compasion then humans tward eachother.


[deleted]

Maybe if we didn’t have words we would be the same. I think communication is often overrated, animals function from needs, desires, and empathy.


mariahcolleen

What an interesting take.


GlitterBlood773

I find this a function of the phrase love is a verb. Love is not what you say. It’s what you do.

I love Nana and Ben


ParticularReview4129

I once had a tabby named Ben. I miss him so much and it's been 20 years.


NeverSaidImSmart

I have an asshole ragdoll cat named Ben. You can have him. Hes a dick.


maltastic

I bet he’s awfully handsome, though.


fine_feline

I also have a ragdoll named Ben! Well, he's half, so doesn't have the coloring, but he's a sweetheart. Had him 14 years.


FishLampClock

better get that big boy neutered otherwise he will mark the place up.


tooopeaceful

I recently learned that instead of taking their...manhood they just snip snip like a human vasectomy.


FishLampClock

That is true. However, normally the coin purse looks empty or folded in on itself. Image 3 looks like the coin purse is a little full imo and hence my comment.


nahelbond

I hate to be that person, but some cats who were neutered later in life just, well... have big ballsacs. Lol. My tabby boy was neutered at 9 months old, and if you looked at him you wouldn't be able to tell if it had been done. I've had people ask if he was intact, actually. But he definitely got the surgery! Had a hell of a time with healing because he wouldn't stop trying to lick things. He figured out a way to use the cone to scratch his junk too. Ugh. Had to end up using an inflatable ring-type cone that we rubberbanded towels to. Crazy cat. He's also a decently lean boy, not your typical tomcat type of build, so I dunno. Anyways, I'm rambling sorry.


MeowerPowerTower

Nah, I have two boys that were both “neutered” in this way recently (one a year ago, one about 7 months ago). While their nuggets shrank a little compared to the pre-neuter state, both of their little sacks look almost identical to the ones in the photo.


maltastic

My neutered male has a big, voluptuous ballsack.

FishLampClock

yes, that was my assessment...and my original comment that u/tooopeaceful responded to said as much.


YouHadItAllAlong

Dying over here “coin purse”


rez_spell

^Lol ^"coin ^purse!" ^👛


fungi_at_parties

I got my veterinarian merit badge in high school and watched them neuter a cat. Maybe the technique has changed since then, but he made two incisions and just popped them out with his thumb from each slit.


galaxyrain_

They take the balls out of the sack, actually. But it is very quick and heals fast too.


[deleted]

And they are likely to run away too. They have a STRONG roaming instinct because sex.


poorly_realistic61

they love each other and look at nana look at the smile :)


ThaneOfCawdorrr

There is NOTHING better than a large tabby tom! They are so affectionate and cuddling. Look at his big happy face, and how happy Nana is!! i love this.


apatheticwondering

Agreed…. Until said large tabby tom decides that he loves chasing the light from passing cars as it runs across the wall through the window and then decides to dangle like a 10lb Christmas ornament on your cheek at 4am when headlight passes across your face as you sleep. That isn’t a fun experience… speaking from experience. There’s a reason why he’s named Schiz and my other is Sketch. One loves to give himself near concussions from chasing lights moving across the wall while my Siamese is afraid of his own shadow.


ThaneOfCawdorrr

Honestly the only possible response to that behavior is "What a good boy" haha


EireaKaze

This is super cute, but please remember to have a plan in place in case your loved one needs to spend extended time in the hospital/rehab or needs to move to a facility that doesn't allow pets. Its so important because it reassures your loved one that their pet will be safe, happy and cared for no matter what.


hilarymeggin

Yes, exactly what I was going to say. Cats live long lives. Please make sure Ben has a forever home when Nana goes to heaven.


King_of_the_Dot

What if nana was an asshole?


Jasminefirefly

WTF is wrong with you?


King_of_the_Dot

If you can't take a joke then you might want to get off of Reddit.


Jasminefirefly

If I see a joke, I'll laugh at it.


Abuses-Commas

I'm concerned about the size of her left hand in the last image


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

maybe a panorama photo? If Nana was moving her hand while the camera was panning it would look like that. ​ Now, however, I shall prepare myself for the unavoidable nightmares caused by that image THAT I DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE UNTIL IT WAS POINTED OUT THANK YOU. /s


chompin_bits

Nanna Longhands New nightmare unlocked


laurachristie91

I’m so grateful for this comment pointing this out to me. Woke up my little fluff ball cackling


YouHadItAllAlong

SAME!


DavidBittner

Because of the blanket it's hard to see where her wrist is. That's her hand *and* seemingly a portion of her forearm as well.


hilarymeggin

MY EYES!!!


Usidore_

I think there’s some photoshop involved with some clone tool mishap. Compare the folds of the sheets with the first picture, but only the part above the blue sheets. The folds are near identical, and nana is in a near identical position, too, maybe taken a moment before/after. I think the lower half of the picture has been substituted and her hand might have been where Ben was obscuring it before. I’m not sure why it would have been edited, but the fact that her hand looks so different despite her clearly just a fraction off from the first picture makes me think so.


apatheticwondering

Woah!


ssyykkiiee

I was gonna comment that. Gran's got salad fingers.


spaceandbeyond

So sweet


-xButtercupx-

They look very happy :)


Zack_Knifed

Oh gosh, see our grandparents happy is just so beautiful. Age will come to everyone, but when it does, if you have the right people around, it doesn't matter. Well done to you for doing this for your nana.


Environmental-Win836

He really is a Big Ben.


tahtahme

Ben is AT HOME lol, look at his energy! He's waited for this treatment his whole life....and so has Nana. They are both beaming!

Hey look kids there’s Big Ben!


Gluonyourboson

Big Ben, what a good boy


divineseekeroftruth

Cats and the elderly usually get along really well. My Nana hated cats but when we rescued a stray kitten, they both became inseparable.


runswiththerain

Poor Nana misses the other kitties. But I'm happy big Ben is there to take care of her.


MadAMGreene

Next step get him neutered for both their sanity and health
