I got a few more holiday cards over the weekend! You can see them at Flickr here, or scroll through them below.
I swear, y’all send the BEST cards – thank you so much for them!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Francesca’s just chillin’ in her pile o’ beds.
‘Til Nacho kicked her out!
Kim has a Churu moment.
A couple of outtakes from when I was trying to get Kim’s “Happy New Year” pic (see the final pic in the media section below.)
She approved of the Churu addition to the ‘niptini.
She was just in the middle of laying down, but she looks like she celebrated too hard.
(We had a very quiet New Year’s Eve; most of the neighbors behaved themselves, and I was asleep by just after midnight!)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Cinnaspin the little poser. Those EYES.
Linzer was a little less sure about posing for a picture, but this works!
Linny hanging out under the scratcher.
And giving me the teenage attitude. “ANOTHER picture, lady?”
Cinna finds that fish taco toy tasty. A potential future taco truck employee, maybe?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Archie’s enjoying the sun and warm weather. No complaints!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Posted on social media (Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/Tumblr) this weekend.
Linny goes for a post-breakfast stretch; Cinna just wants me to pet her and tell her how pretty she is (of course I did, as soon as I took that picture. I’m not a MONSTER.)
Nacho’s all “I’m here to guard your fine artwork, lady. Anyone else tries to touch this picture, I’ll give ’em the ol’ smackeroo.”

I’m tossing toys for the girls (who aren’t really all that interested), and Kim the catnip fiend is getting hiiiigh.
Cinna (left) and Linny are all “Excuse you, lady, you weren’t invited to this meeting.”

Cinna (the torbie) and Linny (the snowshoe) have a purrrr. The first couple of clips in this video are from when they first joined us nearly 2 weeks ago, so they look a little bit rough. They’re fine now, and doing great!
Good night innernets. (Kim Wexler, who doesn’t look particularly sleepy.)
Well, well, well. I guess we have another generation of green bean fans! (Saul took his green bean PLUS some replacements with him, but we had a few in reserve.) You better believe Linny’s sitting back there scheming how to steal that green bean away from Cinna.
I mean, is it ever NOT Churu time? (Francesca’s got the crazy eyes, Nacho’s got the grabby paws. They’re a good team!)
Please ‘nip responsibly, Nacho.
I really don’t think these two are going to make it to midnight to see the new year in. Good night, innernets. (Cinna and Linny)
Happy New Year!
Things are quiet at the fish taco truck this morning; Kim isn’t complaining, though.

We had 28 fosters this year, and here’s each and every one of them. (This is the first year I’ve done video clips of each foster; I already have ideas how to improve it for next year. Top of the list: let’s not wait until December 31st to come up with this brilliant idea and start digging frantically for video clips to use, ROBYN.)
Linny is turning into such a snuggly girl!

Hanging out with the Cookie Girls – torbie Cinna and snowshoe Linny – pointing out their tail lights, petting them, and just basically admiring just how cute they are.
Cinna has such pretty markings, doesn’t she? (Linny was across the room playing.)
Good night innernets. (Kim and Nacho)

What makes Cinna torbie and not tabby?
Simplified, she has both orange and black stripes. Tabbies have either one or the other.
Wishing you , Fred and all the four-legged animals a very happy, HEALTHY 2023. I do believe the posting from today is my favorite since I discovered love-and-hisses! The photos and your captions are wonderful and so funny! I absolutely love the video of the 2022 fosters! Seeing and hearing the babies (and mamas) talk just melted my heart. Thanks Robyn for sharing the pictures and your clever comments with us. You definitely could have a second career as a stand up comic!
Awww, thanks!
I like how the last picture of Cinna looks like she has a red bow (yes, I know it’s a ball) on her neck.
Happy New Year to all!
I would gladly pet both Cinna and Linny and tell them how pretty they are, because even without being able to see the pics, I know it’s true. 🙂
Awwww, these girls both have a purrrrr! Someone’s got a clickety little kitteny purr, and someone else (?) has a motor going. Who’s who? I’m going to hazard a guess that Linny’s the quieter purrer.
Linny IS the quieter purrer – she’s got a quieter, deeper purr, and Cinna’s purr is more high-pitched. Together, they make delightful music. 🙂
Thank you for taking the time to post the most amazing and adorable pictures and videos and msgs, it make my day everyday and fulfill my hart with hope about this world, I hope every four legs friends (cats and dogs) find their forever home and do not have to suffer outside.
P.s: is Kim a permanent resident until you find a good home for her? if yes, you can let her play with your permanent residents? jus curiosity (like a cat hahah)
Kim is adoption pending and going home next week!
