One year ago, these two were adopted…
That is (left) Joanie and Marsali. We fostered Marsali as a kitten – she was one of the Outlander Clan. She was adopted and went to join another kitten who’d been adopted from somewhere else. Unfortunately, their adopter’s life circumstances changed and he needed to return Marsali. Though Joanie wasn’t one of our former fosters, of course we took her as well.
They were only with us for two weeks before they were adopted here locally to a friend. Marsali became Marcy, and Joanie became Joni, and here they are now, with an update!
It’s been a year since Joni and Marcy joined our family so I wanted to send an update. They are both the sweetest, silliest cats. Marcy is incredibly curious and we find her all over the house sleeping in the most unusual ways. Joni loves playing chase and will trill at you to chase her, fly down the hallway, then stop dead still for you to “catch” her and give her some petting. They both still love tussling together, then watching birds and squirrels. At night they each pick a lap and settle in for TV time. They warm our hearts daily and we are so lucky to have them.
(That shot of the girls with the squirrel on the other side of the window is just ::chef’s kiss:: perfection!)

Crouton in the sun.
And Crumpet in the sun.
It’s cracking me up how, due to the angle, it looks like Babka is twice the size of Pumpernickel. (For the record, she is not twice his size. He’s bigger than she is.)
Babka giving Mama the look o’ love.
Babka goes in for the ol’ chomperoo, and Pita is all “NO THANK YOU.”
She avoided that chomp; Babka was going to go for another try, but ended up getting distracted and went elsewhere.
To Pumpernickel! Who DID get the ol’ chomperoo, and is giving me this look like “What did *I* do?!”
Ciabatta is like “This bed IS comfy!” as he stays out of the fray (and away from Babka’s chompin’ teeth.)

Posted on social media (Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/Tumblr) this weekend.
Pita’s having a hard time getting going this morning. (Same, girl.)
Babka is a cutie pie, and she knows it.

Crouton and Pita are learning about the track toy, and they’re finding it a lot of fun!

Another day, another round of crazy little skitterbugging kittens!
Crumpet in the sun, havin’ a smug.
(If you are interested in adopting Crumpet – and if you don’t mind waiting about a month to actually adopt her – email Forgotten Felines of Huntsville at info (at) ffhsv.org to inquire. She is about 2 years old, loves catnip, is ready to be the baby, and is going for her spay the second week of April.)
Good night innernets. (Ciabatta, Babka, Pumpernickel, Pita & Crouton, who are all stuffed in that tiny little cat tree because of course they are.)
Crouton is turning out to be QUITE the little poser.

Ciabatta caught sight of himself in the mirror, and felt compelled to put on his floof suit. Strange kittens are scary! (Please note that as soon as he turned around and walked away, he was perfectly fine and unfloofed.)

Pita is a busy, busy girl. 😻
I’m feeling a little judged by Babka in this moment.
Good night innernets. (Ciabatta)
Crouton looooves her mama.
Ooh, look! It’s a Babka pie! (My favorite!)

Pita at the milk bar, and Crumpet with her green bean toy… and eventually Babka came to see what was going on.
Good night innernets. (Pumpernickel)
