Getting some attitude from Clover and Bramble.
Hollyhock, up close.
So many toys, so little time.
Bramble’s innocent little face. “I wasn’t gonna kick him in the nose, lady. I really wasn’t!”
Everyone but Clover playing in the sun. Left to right: Bramble (behind Mondo), Mondo, Kudzu, Hollyhock.
It’s a warm Clover-Kudzu pie. My favorite!
Hollyhock’s sweet little whiskers in the sun. I could just kiss that girl a million times.
Kudzu would like you to know that it’s exhausting to be this cute.
Mondo’s gorgeous stripes in the sun.
Check out Mondo’s sharp little toofies.

This picture of Archie in the back yard is from last November. Only 5 months later, it looks totally different in that spot – the tree behind Archie is gone, and the fence has been replaced with black chain-link. I should take a picture of Archie in that spot for comparison purposes.

Posted on social media (Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/Tumblr) yesterday.
Bramble and Clover play pat-a-cake.
(Pat-a-cake: a children’s game in which participants gently clap each other’s hands and their own in time to the words of a rhyme.)
Mondo has a complaint.

Yes, that seems like a safe and not at all precarious place to fall asleep, Bramble. (I gently lifted him down into a bed after I made the video.)
I startled Bramble and he went slightly Halloween-kitty on me.

Mimosa gets the kittens all worked up. Why? Well, why NOT, is the better question.
Hollyhock the tiny princess keeps an eye on her tiny domain.
Annnnd Mondo… is… out! (Good night innernets.)

I can’t believe you had to explain pat-a-cake. Anyone with kids should know that…and all those kids of those parents that know what it is.
Love the pics and vids of these pole beans. Just like their namesakes, growing fast and getting around.
Love-and-Hisses has several international fans and although the concept is probably universal, the phrase itself might not auto-translate to the local idioms.
Yeah, I wasn’t sure if everyone would know what it was – I’m sure it’s not common in other countries. 🙂
The picture of Hollyhock up close is giving me some Glamour Shots vibes!
So sorry some of your readers thought that I was selling kittens. I am NOT!! I am just a cat lover following mimosa and her kittens. Please do not block me love-and-hisses. Thank you.
The only person I’ve blocked recently on Facebook was this morning, and the name is different from your name here – and I don’t see any recent comments from you on the page. If you’re blocked from the FB page, let me know what your user name is. If you’re not, I haven’t blocked you.
Never mind, I see what happened – someone replied to your comment, and in their reply they linked to a site that is selling cats and kittens. I banned them, but since they’ve been banned, you can’t see their comments. They’re the person we were talking about – you’re fine!
Oh my LORD. Bramble, you little goof, you did NOT just fall asleep hanging off the edge of a couch and kill me with your cute.
They’re all soooooo adorable! And growing up so fast!!! Slowwwww dowwwwnnn babies!!!
On another note, can you possibly post the “Kitten-Nado” video (Elements litter) on Throw Back Thursday? I’ve tried to find it with no success. That video cracks me up every time!!!
I think you might be thinking of the video I made of the Cardsharks – that came from the Nest camera footage, three different angles? I’ll post the video I’m thinking of tomorrow, and if I’ve posted the wrong one, let me know!
