A peek into the crate from above. From left: Zephyr, Daphne, Cassandra, Pandora and Zeus.

Daphne and Zephyr keep an eye on me from the back of the crate.

Cassandra’s a wee bit sleepy, I think.

Pandora and Zeus are all “You need something, lady?”

Calliope takes a break. (This shot makes her look a little chubby, but I assure you – that girl is skinny. I feed her multiple times a day – if I walk into the room and there’s no canned food on her plate, I open a new can for her, basically – but y’know. They always get skinny at this point.)

Zeus is all “Mama Mama Mama! I was wondering where you was!”
These guys will be three weeks old tomorrow, so I’m going to predict that at some point in the next week, they’ll start leaving the crate. They’re certainly starting to get the hang of walking, so they’re right on track!

Pierogi and Wonton are exhausted from running around like crazy things this morning.

A Tortellini and her spiral tunnel.

The cat tree is loaded and ready for harvesting!

Zephyr says “Hey, hey, hey. I said NO PICTURES!”

Throw Back Thursday: From 2007: Sugarbutt (the cat) and Fricassee (aka “Frick”) in the back yard. This is one of my all-time favorite pics, and the caption (below) still makes me laugh.
Is it just me, or do these look like weirdly posed scenes, like something you’d see in the JC Penney catalog? I imagine a photographer yelling “Frick! You WANT him, you want him with every feather on your body, but Sugarbutt! You don’t even notice Frick, you’re just standing there being beautiful. Be beautiful, Sugarbutt! Be beautiful and feisty and unattainable, and Frick! Want him! Want him badly, but sadly, knowing that you can never have someone that beautiful. He’s out of your league! PERFECT!”

Mama Calliope’s handing out baths, and the kittens are working on their walking skills. They’re getting the hang of it!

Pierogi and the ol’ razzle dazzle.

Tossing ping pong balls for the kittens (or should I say – tossing ping ping balls for Tortellini. That girl can JUMP!)

I am utterly AMAZED that the feathers are still on that spiral tunnel, I’d have thought they’d be long gone by now!
Reminder: these three (from left: Pierogi, Tortellini & Wonton) are still available for adoption. 4 months old, spayed/neutered vaccinated, and ready to go! Email Forgotten Felines of Huntsville at INFO (at) FFHSV.ORG to inquire, or fill out an application here.

Zeus and Pandora (and Daphne’s foot) are all snuggled up for a nap.

Good night innernets. (Zephyr (bottom), Pandora (top) and Daphne (right.))
