Oh yeah, and Pandora’s in heat. Bigwig has mounted her a couple times with the look on his face of, “Why am I doing this?”

Nimbus is a year old now. We wonder if he has stopped growing yet.

Behold, the Sea of Floof! He enjoys brushing in spring. Definitely blowing the winter coat he didn’t actually need in any way

He’s warming up to us.

Side note, the reason we’re babysitting is because our daughter and her husband are in Chicago, she always wanted to see the Chicago River turned green.

I regret to inform you that Nimbus is very unlikely to be done growing at only 1 year of age. :disappointed:

Probably not! Enormous cats appear to be my fate.

Okay, here’s the final photo shoot.

It’s weird, his fur is on the gray side but it photographs brown, even with white balance adjustment. Maybe it’s that whole blue dress thing.

four cats vie to be my shop apprentice.
BuddyCat is still the shop foreman (we run a union shop here).
ChiliDog tries, but gets underfoot and has had her tail run over by my chair. much yowling and a lot of hair. ouchie!
BabyCat could give a shit, but only wants to come in and look for treats.
and now Rufous, who wants to be a shop kitteh,


(who? me?!)
but she is just too lazy to bother:

she’d rather just sit on the porch.

I think those were all taken with the flash. That could be the problem.

Kitteh Kiki gets a daily visit from one of the (many) eastern water skinks that live in our garden, who then taunts her through the screen door. We have way too many parrots, other birds and reptiles in the garden to let the cats out, and I think the wildlife is beginning to cotton on.

Okay, one more, maybe.

We went to work really early, came home and checked on him, couldn’t find him right away.

Oh, there he is.

My wife loves taking pictures of the faces of the cats as they sleep.

Young Topaz often presses his whole face against the arm of his jungle gym/loveseat, frontwise as he sleeps. No face pics then!

He’s even doing it Right Now!

The red one unfortunately had a severe case of gingivitis and after a visit to the vet and dentist, he had to have some teeth pulled. Since then, we have been working hard to treat the kittens’ mouths.

My wife Said cats covering the faces are also cute. She asked for some pictures of your cat.

I’ll ask D to try getting some pics of him squishing his face, too.

We’ve also got a million of these.

If you stand it on end and push down you can launch them pretty good.

There are a bunch in Mrs. Feral’s room. During the night she pushes them under her door and the other cats push them back.

You can find them on Amazon or online as Kitty Boinks.
