He's thinking about... treats!  

Confused? Stubborn? Genuis?

Cyrrie just can't accept that the Hall's lozenges are not treats; so - for now - the human has a bag of [tooth] treats in bed with her to keep him happy...

Update On Cats (And Kittens)

Their idea of "nursing" is to sit heavily on and purr loudly at the patient, all except for tiny Cloud, who can only sit lightly...

Update On Human

We are nursing her through a relapse - we are getting good at this...

Budster... (AKA, The Budster....) 

TASW Applies To Cats As Well As Kittens

When the human throws her damp bathrobe on the bed while she dresses, likely as not Banshee will move in, kneading it thoroughly, then curling up for a snooze... What is so attractive about sleeping on a damp robe??

Taking Care of Human

When the human fell ill over the weekend, and spent all day Sunday in bed, cats and kittens stepped up: multiple occupancy of bed, no bad language or turf issues, lots of negative ions... Human says, You guys are better than vitamin C and zinc!

Dodged A Bullet

We are happy to report that, after 6 weeks, the little no-name foster kitten is safely out of the grandhuman's house, and re-united with his biological sister (much bad language but no acting out as of noonish today).

"Kitten In A Piesafe By A Window" 

Each To Her Own

While everyone else is having tooth treats, Petunnia nibbles the Norfolk pine...

Lucy! (She Comes With The Exclamation Point)

How to describe - let alone explain - Lucy! The least little thing will set her off... Just say, Hi Lucy, and she's likely to keel over, wriggling this way and that, purring in ecstacy, kneading any and every surface that comes within range of her big white paws, including thin air. And when she jumps on her human's lap, it gets even worse, with the head butts and the nibblings of fingers and face. This morning the human tried to wait her out, thinking that sooner or later Lucy would get it out of her system and jump off to other cat venues/topics. Ha! After 15-20 min, Lucy was still going strong - but the human had to put her down and go to work...!

Always enthusiastic Lucy... 

Sunday Afternoon

Human goes shopping, brings home: 40 lbs of kitty litter, 4 kinds of crunchies, a case of (Flaked Fish and Shrimp) Fancy Feast, many kinds of treats, and 7 new cat toys... The human asks, What's wrong with this picture? Cats - and kittens - also ask, What?

B&W cat back - HELP!!!!!

Woohooooo....!

For the second day in a row, Banshee took her asthma med w/ out a fight! We got Prednisone (sp?) infused, seafood-flavored treats shipped from Houston, and, amazingly, she seems to like them...!

Timing IS Everything, And We Know Just When To Turn Our Heads

Being shy... 

Hiding his smacked nose... 

Stalked!

B&W cat back. Help!

Why Is It That...?

Early this morning, the human is semi-snoozing with Buddy apurr beside her - very sweet and comfy, all the way around. Then in comes a little trouble-maker kitten, who starts messing with the lace curtains. After whispering Stop that! and Be good!!, the human finally says, sort of loudly, well, maybe not loudly but sort of firmly, No! (The "n" word...) Then, of course, it's the "good" cat, innocent Buddy, who jumps off the bed and runs out. The "bad" kitten, oblivious, continues to mess with the curtains....

Pretty - that is to say not crazed - Cloud... 

The Stair Game

When the kittens knock a basket down the stairs, and the human has to bring it back up, is it role-reversal?

Being (Unexpectedly) Sweet

When Petunnia and Buddy come face to face in a small place this morning, Petunnia is unexpectedly polite: she pretends to scratch her chin, while Buddy - who had been dithering about whether or not to jump up on the bed - quickly makes up his mind, and jumps!

Handsome Cyrrie! 

How The Human Spends Her Day Off

When the kittens are stuffed - cliche coming: kicking and screaming - into carriers to be taken to the vetz, it's every senior cat for her(or him)self. An hour and a half later, when we're home again, home again, FF for all, Buddy still hasn't reappeared... (Little does he know, he's next!)

Tickled!

When the human incautiously leaves a toe outside the covers, it is gently nibbled and tapped by tiny sharp claws...

Buddy: Saint Or Wimp?

In spite of his human's endless attempts to secure his Fancy Feast, Buddy inevitably surrenders to one poacher kitten or another, and tonight it was Cyrrie, Cloud and Banshee...

Twinkerbelle... 

Crazed Cyrrie... 

Crazed again... 

B&W Cat Sighting

When the human came home tonight, there was the little b&w, sitting on her porch. As she pulled into her driveway, he stepped down - off the porch, onto the drive way - and then just sat there, right in the headlight beams... And just sat there. And sat there. When the human inched forward, he slipped off into the neighbor's bushes. Was this his idea of a peaceful protest? (And what was he protesting?)

Twinkle And Shine

Putting on makeup in front of an avid kitten audience, the human offers to put twinkles on Cloud. Truly perplexed, Cloud declines. How redundant! she says, when I myself am a twinkle...
