Thank you all so much for your kind words about Riker’s passing. There’s no doubt that this has been a terrible kitten season with all the losses, but also a wonderful kitten season with the wins (specifically the Nestlings.) I am hoping from here on out it’s only wins. A girl can dream, right?
(We buried Riker in the back yard near where the other kittens we’ve lost this year are buried. I worried that Uhura would look for him, but she was right there as I was trying to save him, grooming him and talking to him, and she was there when he passed, so she knows.)

Kes has a tiny complaint, but she’s smiling while she complains, so I don’t know how serious she is about it.
Uhura says “Take my paw and save me from this seething mass of hungry kittens!”
Spock’s all “Whatcha doing out there, lady?”
“Is it just me or is there always a kitten in my face?” asks Uhura.
Troi’s all “Lady, I got knives coming out of my toeses!”
The milk bar is the happenin’ place to be.
I did get Uhura and the kittens moved into the foster room late yesterday. Uhura wasn’t quite sure what to make of the new room, but she’s done some exploring and she knows where the litter boxes and the food bowls are, so it’s all good. (The kittens, of course, are still in the crate.)

Posted on social media (Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/Tumblr) yesterday.
Janeway (left) and Kes are having a cuddle (and also Spock’s behind is moving through the picture ’cause he’s got places to GO.)
Spock is all “Paws UP, y’all,” and Kirk is inspecting his form and isn’t exactly impressed.
Now that Wren has gone home, you might have thought to yourself “Wow, I am really going to miss having a talker in the Love & Hisses feed,” but worry NOT. Troi has a lot to say, and she doesn’t mind repeating herself.

Fightin’ at the milk bar: On the left side we’ve got Janeway (tortie) and Kirk (black and white) fighting for the GOOD seat, on the right side we’ve got Troi (tortie) and Kes (calico) fighting for the GOOD seat, and in the middle we’ve got chill dude Spock just minding his own business.
Kirk has not hissed at me in several days (the hissing stage always goes by too fast), but he doesn’t mind giving me orders. Yes, sir!
Good night innernets. (Kes and Kirk)

“I worried that Uhura would look for him, but she was right there as I was trying to save him, grooming him and talking to him, and she was there when he passed, so she knows.” Picturing this scene made my heart hurt for all of you 🙁
2018 – MOOP!
I was wondering if the trekkers are really big or is it that the nestlings were so small
