Nikki’s so busy keeping an eye on Sammy that she doesn’t know Ruthy’s about to pounce.
Sammy’s all “What?”
“Gimme a HUG, Carli!”
It’s a triple-kitten pie! My favorite! Some of the filling is leaking out, though, that’s gonna make a mess.(Sammy, Barry (left) and Ruthy)
Carli’s all “What? Just bunny-kicking my baguette toy. You gots a problem with that?”
Sammy’s keeping an eye on me. (I took this picture to show the changing leaves in the window. If I remember, I’ll take a picture in the winter when the tree is bare. And in the spring when it starts to green out again! Oh, who am I kidding? I won’t remember.)
Ruthy’s all “Oh ceiling fan, I love you so.”

Ozzie the lapkitten. That boy is such a snuggler, I’m telling you.

An old picture of Dewey (from when we lived in the last house), so y’all don’t forget what a good-looking boy he is.

Posted on social media (Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/Tumblr) yesterday.
In case you missed it in the blog this morning, the kittens met Uncle Charlie and put on their very best floof suits.
Sammy always looks at me like he’s trying to figure me out.

I don’t know what made Ruthy Ruthenium (pink collar) and Nikki Nickel (lavender collar) so floofy and skitterbuggy, but they were really putting on a show. I love that orange tabby Ozzy Osmium came over to see what was going on and decided – NOPE, not gonna get involved, thanks!
All 6 kittens in one casual shot. Left to right: Sammy, Carli, Ruthy (in the pink pie plate, flirting with the ceiling fan), Nikki, Barry, and as usual Ozzy is in my lap. ❤️

3 minutes of kittens playing (GO, Ruthy!)

Good night innernets. (Nikki)

When I was a kid, we had a whole bunch of semi-feral outside cats. Most were buff, although about every other “generation,” there would be a white one with blue eyes (usually also deaf). Although most just came to the house to eat, there were always a few that were tamer, and one or two who would come in the house. One of those was a buff boy we called Sammy, although I had completely forgotten about him until this Sammy appeared! Our Sammy was a little guy, with a number of health issues, but he was probably the tamest cat ever from that semi-feral family. I guess he knew it was smart to be nice to the humans!
