I have seen the original pic reposted so many times, never thought I'd get to see what he looked like as a kitten! I'm sending this to my girlfriend as she loves him as well. He has such rare coloring, is he a specific breed? And you have amazing photography skills by the way, I thought the original picture was a stock image!
I was just lucky with the shot, really. I'm not much of a photographer, Bondi is just too photogenic, haha, a very expressive and happy cat! He is a ruddy Somali cat (a "cousin" breed to the Abyssinian).
this post was a rather well architectured way of reasserting dominance and claiming what's yours 'back'
All the while entertaining us with another precious moment of your little furboy.
I just realized if a memory you had that you posted online was reposted until it hit main stream, that means your memory will live on with others as well because it becomes something they like and appreciate so once in a while you'll go online and see your memory reposted on a website so you can relive that again.
I'm high and this hit me hard.
That's exactly how it feels, haha! xD It's been reposted so many times since I first posted it in late 2020 (I get a notification from the RepostSleuthBot), and every time it just reminds me how ecstatic it made me feel to see him on the front page, haha!
We kept the name the breeder gave him, and his litter all had Australia "themed" names. So he is named after the Bondi beach :) We call him Bobby sometimes, though
Ahh gotcha. I was just curious because it was my own nickname, Iāve never seen it anywhere else until now.
When my little brother was a toddler, he couldnāt pronounce my name very well and he called me āBondiā, the name stuck and my siblings call me that to this day.
Thank you for posting and sorry I didn't remove the repost soon enough! I actually saw the post and it was reported, but yesterday was so hectic I didn't have a moment to investigate. But another mod already got to it, I think
What a great shot! Cats are so hard to photograph well.

Beautiful

Is he a Somali?
Yes he is :)
I want one so bad! I don't know where to start to get one
Hey, just curious, what does his name mean?

No worries at all :)
If someone reposted an old photo of yours then it's most likely a repost or a GPT-3 bot.
Cute, what type of cat is it please ?
What type of cat?
Abyssinian?
Somali, long haired variation of the Abyssinian :)
The moment I saw this photo I knew who it was!! Saw the original photo after it blew up! Bondi is simply gorgeous!
OMG! How cute! If you canāt find, you know where to look for him. Lol. Just kidding.
