Over the weekend, this happened:
Mr. Stripey was one of the ‘Maters, who was adopted out in early 2012 with his brother, Sungold. They were returned almost a year later and took up residence in the cat room at the shelter. Last October, Sungold passed away unexpectedly. I half expected that Mr. Stripey was going to end up staying at the shelter for good, but earlier this year Kathy – who adopted Reacher back in early 2011 – lost Beau, who was a great friend to Reacher. She was interested in adopting another cat, decided on Mr. Stripey, and this past weekend picked him up.
Kathy said: I brought Mr. Stripey home yesterday & he’s doing great! Very loving, very chill. We did a brief intro period & hes got the run of the house. Reacher has been a bit of a drama queen, but he’s always last on board with changes. So far, so good!
And she posted a few pictures on Facebook!
They’re planning to change his name, and he’s such a lovebug that they’re considering renaming him “Romeo,” which I think is awesome.
It took him a while to get there, but I do believe that boy has found his happy ending!

Skelton (left) and Shecky, snuggle up for some Buff Bro nappin’ time.
“What, lady, what? What you want? Am just laying here minding my own bidness!”
“Is you stalkin’ me?” (Louis)
Rickles gives us his best “IIIIIII am just a poor wee baby kitteh!”
Roseanne wonders if anyone’s sittin’ in my lap, and if so could I please remove them? She’d like to sit there, thanks.
“Gonna come over there and slap that camera outta your hands, lady.” Belushi, the tough guy.
Shecky and the Look of Innocence. Which means he’s totally up to something!
Gilda examines Louis’ “Paws up, y’all!” form (and his delightfully spotted belly).
Belushi gets a belly rub… and he’s not sure if he likes it.
Roseanne, keeping an eye on me.
Rickles and Louis do the official Ornj Bros High Five.
Louis keeps biting Rickles’ foot, which naturally leads to the Open Mouth of Outrage. AND Roseanne keeps biting Belushi’s ear, which leads to a SECOND Open Mouth of Outrage!
Skelton has a sleepy.
Ahhh, yes. A bed of kittens is the MOST comfortable bed of all. That Shecky sure is a smarty pants.

Videos! The theme for today’s videos is “wrasslin’.” In the first, Roseanne, Shecky, Belushi and Louis get their wrassle on.
And in the second, Shecky and Roseanne are wrasslin’. She doesn’t seem to be all that into it, but she’s a good sister and is humoring him.

You know she was sitting up there giving that Look o’ Love to her main (only) man Tommy!
