Time to let me know if you want a holiday card, with this year’s featured Crooked Acre permanent resident! Go here to Postable, enter your name and address, and your card will be on the way soon. I am happy to send cards to other countries, this is NOT limited to U.S. residents. If you have any problems, drop me an email and I’ll do my best to fix it. I’ll take names and addresses until December 20th.
If you’d like to send me a card as well (never ever required, but always appreciated – I don’t keep track of who does or doesn’t send a card, I promise!), send it to:
Robyn Anderson
1260 US HWY 72E, STE B #130
Athens, AL 35611 USA
(PS: If that link doesn’t work for you, or you prefer not to enter your info (I delete your name and address once I’ve downloaded it), you can email me instead.)

ATTENTION PLEASE: Someone sent us a couple of sets of very cute Christmas cat toys, and some of the blankets the kittens like so much. Amazon didn’t include a note, so I have no idea who sent them! Was it you? If so, please email me ( mizrobyn (at) gmail.com ) so that I can properly thank you.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ATTENTION PLEASE: If you adopted any of the Fakers kittens from 2016 – specifically Chanandler Bong, Princess Consuela, Susie, Ken Adams, or their mother Regina Phalange – would you drop me an email at mizrobyn (at) gmail.com? I’d love an update!

Ouiser checks out M’Lynn’s thlurrrping form.
Shelby’s all “Oooh. Who’s that cutie?”
“Is that what I look like? It’s not what I expected,” says Clairee.
Every single time I think I can safely put the crate away, Shelby says “Nooo, that’s my childhood home!” and starts hanging out in there again. Drum and Clairee decided to see what the fuss was about and discovered there’s a heated bed in there, so I guess the crate stays where it is!
Shelby started this tussle with Drum and Clairee, and it looks like they’re gonna end it.

Newt can’t remember whether I gave him his Second Breakfast when I came downstairs, so he’s about to start howling at me ’til I feed him. (When the old man wants some extra wet food, the old man gets it.)

Posted on social media (Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/Tumblr) yesterday.
We’ve got some leftover M’Lynn pie (my favorite!) – dig in!
Lunch is served! From left: Shelby, Clairee, Ouiser & Drum… and (lower right) M’Lynn. We are currently on a multi-plate feeding system because the chip & dip (divided) plate I like to use for litters is still a little confusing for them – they’ll get the hang of it in another week or two.

Shelby’s getting to be more and more playful. Our tiny girl is growing up!
(And of COURSE if you provide a soft landing NEXT to the scratcher, the kitten is going to opt to jump to the bare floor instead.)
Drum knows if you wanna warm your furs, you gotta go where the sunshine is.
Shelby and Clairee from above. 😻

That is one happy M’Lynn pie. (You can’t actually hear her purring until about 25 seconds in – when I get right in her face – but believe me, she was purring the entire time.)
Good night innernets. (Drum & Clairee)
You can’t really see Drum in this picture (or at least not his face), but all 4 kittens AND M’Lynn are present in this picture, and so I felt like it was a noteworthy picture. (Drum in the “tunnel”, Ouiser on the window sill, Clairee hanging out of the “tunnel”, Shelby down low on the smaller cat tree, and M’Lynn wondering what’s going on.)
Triple kitten pie!!! (My favorite!) (Shelby, Drum and Clairee)

Clairee and Ouiser have a tussle… and then Drum comes along to see what’s what. (Shelby was eating, and thus is not in this video. You can see a bit of M’Lynn in her pie plate at the very beginning.)
Good night innernets. (Shelby)

Newt’s age qualifies him for all the wet feed he wants, that’s how it always works at my house.
Awwww. Newt looks like an angel. I’ve had several kitties to reach a ripe old age. Their faces reflect such wonder and experience. I really appreciate you posting his pics.
I sure would love to adopt Miss Shelby! Unfortunately too far away and I have a kitty who would not welcome another kitty.I have tried.
Lolololol!!! Ouiser’s scowly little, disapproving face in the 2nd picture looking at M’Lynn…it’s cracking me up, I can’t quit laughing!!
Are Drum and Clairee bonded?
I don’t think so – all the kittens appear to play with each other pretty equally.
Thank you!
That is a fabulous and fabulously happy pie. Purring M’Lynn, the morning brightener. <3 She is such a sweetheart!
Eeeee teeny tiny Shelby is growing up! Something leads me to believe you might just be a Beulah i.e. a small but perfectly healthy kitty cat, Shelbyness. 🙂
Speaking of purry creatures, hi Newt! *pets*
