Weekly Instagram/Facebook/Tumblr Roundup.
(These are pictures and videos that I uploaded to Instagram (and which auto-posted to Facebook and Tumblr) throughout the week. I know not everyone has access to that social media, so I’ll be posting them here once a week so everyone gets to see the cuteness.)
The foster room is empty no longer! Meet #ReginaPhalange, a gorgeous, friendly girl who looks a lot like our #JoeBob. Doesn’t she have pretty eyes? (Stay tuned, more pictures later!).
Did I mention that #ReginaPhalange is very friendly? She’s got some impressive whiskers, too! #FosterCat
For those who asked, #ReginaPhalange is, indeed, the name Phoebe used on Friends. #ReginaPhalange has the normal number of toes, see? They are long and elegant. Regina Phalange just happens to be a name that I love (I am a huge Friends fan) and I decided it was time to use it. Our #ReginaPhalange is definitely, no doubt, 100% NOT pregnant. I had hoped to get a pregnant mama in my foster room this year (and to get to see kittenbirth in action), but I guess it’s not in the cards. That’s okay, because this skinny girl needs fattening up and lots of love and attention, and she’ll get it here!
Okay, I’ve teased you long enough – #ReginaPhalange is definitely not pregnant for the simple reason that she just had kittens last Tuesday evening! But as I head off to bed, here’s your last tease for today – you have to wait til tomorrow’s post to find out how many kittens there are. Visit love-and-hisses.com bright and early tomorrow for the details. 🙂 Warning: they are utterly adorable!
We already have eyeballs peeking through! They’re right on schedule, but it seems too soon. Slow down, little man, I’m not ready! #TheFakers #6DaysOld #FosterCat #FosterKittens #plink
Such smug little faces. #TheFakers #FosterKittens #6DaysOld
“Hello innernets, hi hi! It is I, #PrincessConsuela, just hanging out and planning how to take over the world. Shouldn’t be hard.” #TheFakers #1WeekOld
Look closer and check out that #TinyTongue. How I do not squish these kittens, I do not know! #KenAdams #TheFakers #1WeekOld #WeeBabyKittens
You guys, SERIOUSLY. #BertMacklin #KenAdams #ChanandlerBong #PrincessConsuela #Susie #ArtVandelay #TheFakers #kittens #1WeekOld
“Hallo, innernets, I see you!” #ChanandlerBong #CowKitten #TheFakers #FosterKitten #8DaysOld #plink
Babies’ first field trip. #ReginaPhalange’s goopy eye wasn’t getting better and she needed her combo test, so I packed them all up and took them to the vet. Combo test was negative (yay!) and no visible damage to the eye, so we’re sticking to ointment and starting her on an antibiotic, hopefully it’ll help. The kittens were determined to be the cutest babies ever, of course. Mom was watchful but calm and kittens slept the entire time.
#ChanandlerBong and #KenAdams have a snuggle. #TheFakers #moo #9DaysOld
Flirty #ReginaPhalange. #FosterMama #wink #TheFakers #tuxielove
I was trying very hard (with Fred’s help) to get a picture of #PrincessConsuela’s tiny white bikini markings, and she was all “What we doin’ here, Mister?” #TheFakers #9DaysOld #WeeBabyKittens
Kitten Jenga. #BertMacklin #PrincessConsuela #ChanandlerBong #KenAdams #TheFakers #10DaysOld
#Susie is just a little DOLL. #TheFakers #zzzzz #NapTime #WeeBabyKittens
Ladies and gentlemen, we have ourselves a little #hisser. #KenAdams #TheFakers #hissypants

Oh, that little FACE and those TOES. #BertMacklin #TheFakers #FullBelly
Instead of including each video separately, I put them all together in one video, ’cause it was easier for me. It’s kind of neat to see them age from 5 to 12 days old.

These are my favorite kittens ever!! (Never said before.) (As if.)
OMG!!! The video just killed me ded. DED. The kitten at 2:23 fighting to stay awake and then gives in and almost does the head drop to the blanket, so, so good. I am going back to watch again. Thank you for making my weekend.
Ah, there is nothing like a Sunday morning mug of coffee while watching the CUTEST KITTENS IN THE WORLD! Keep ’em coming. <3
Thanks, Robyn. It’s difficult to know whom you spoil more, your very lucky; deserving fosters or your perpetually lucky readers!
