Random feline cuteness

[yakalskovich]

How can anything that big and potentially fierce have such cute toes??

I love it when they spread their toes to clean in between.

It would be so useful if they did that when I was endeavoring to trim their nails....

[yakalskovich]

I still have holes that Lucifer made in me the last time I caught him to trim his nails! Once I have him in the sink and on the towel, he lets me do it like a bored diva, though.-

I want that video!

Oooooh, cute orange Siamese kitten. I actually picked it up when it got trapped on the wall (but it spit and nearly had a heart attack so I let it go again).

[yakalskovich]

I might ask the Nazgul to film when I clip the cats' nails the next time...

[paceisthetrick]

I just got some pics of the feral kittens. There are three -- orange, black, and normal Siamese, all with blue eyes. <3

Now I just have to figure out how to upload them...

[yakalskovich]

I'm sure you'll work it out -- get the camera's memory connected to the computer somehow, then copy it to the computer's hard drive, then upload it somewhere, then link?

[paceisthetrick]

My phone broke so my client gave me his old one. I have the recharger but I don't think that connects to the computer. I will ask him tonight how to do it.

They are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO cute! I already have two of them spoken for (one to a family who has adopted three others from me. :))) )

[yakalskovich]

Amazing! I hope you get the pics off your new phone so I get to see them.

For once, I'm almost sorry I'm not in Texas. If I just dashed over to get a kitten and get out again on a return flight, I might escape confrontation with rednecks and not end up lynched and/or executed for something I didn't do?

[paceisthetrick]

LOL Austin is a safe harbor. You have nothing to fear here. The small towns are where the trouble is!

K so the mamma left and the little Siamese one rolled over and wound up rolling off the step, the orange one tried (unsuccessfully) to clean his leg and also rolled off the step, and the black one's ears are out to the side and he is yawning. :D

[yakalskovich]

I hope your brain won't get fried by all that cuteness!!

[paceisthetrick]

They are at that adorable stage where they are constantly gnawing on one another (or standing upright on their hind legs like King Kong).

Too cute!

[yakalskovich]

Awwww! Yes, that makes me worry -- how much cuteness can one brain take?

[paceisthetrick]

It just means I shall be in a good mood when it is time to teach my class.

Oh, dear, they are trying to climb. brb

[yakalskovich]

Climb what?

[paceisthetrick]

The fence! This is bad because they can get up but they cannot get down.

And it is concrete underneath. :(

[yakalskovich]

Ouch! Poor things. Did they let you pick them up and save them?

Apparently, their mum thinks they're in good hands with you if she just drops them off at yours and goes about her business.

[paceisthetrick]

My back patio borders the JCC woods where the feral colony lives. I provide free food. :) And this week it has been chicken which makes me #1 in Popular Eating Locales.

They get stuck on top and I pick them up to put them back on the ground.

Right now they are passed out on the rug. The Siamese one is in hiding.

[yakalskovich]

Kittens! You are so lucky to have so many of them passing through your life and then going to be family pets somewhere. Well, not all of them make it, but that's natural selection in action. **sigh**

[paceisthetrick]

I think most of them die. We see them one day and then never again.

I have a dog so they are safe if they camp out in my garage (the dog is bigger than the coyotes). But if they stay on the campus they get eaten.

And then there are the owls. :(((

[yakalskovich]

So the clever ones go to your garage and survive?

[paceisthetrick]

Those on the dole reproduce in my garage. :P

[yakalskovich]

ALL the reproduction? Including caterwauling?

[paceisthetrick]

Yep. Even the ones I have neutered and spayed. They actually fight more than the others! Jakob looks like he has been through a bar room brawl every time he comes home (he just walked through the cat door after a two-week absence, bleeding and limping).

[yakalskovich]

I'm sure you're happy to see him again, barroom brawl and all!

[paceisthetrick]

He's Mr. Tough outside and as soon as he gets home he wants to live in my arms and be bottle fed like the kittens. *rolls eyes*

[yakalskovich]

Cats!! Mephi still tries to nurse on Lucifer from time to time, but Lucifer doesn't like to have his nipples nibbled by needle-sharp teeth...

[paceisthetrick]

CATS!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh! My little ones ate their first bite of real food today.


And are subsequently completely constipated and yowling like I am declawing them without anaesthesia.

[yakalskovich]

Awwwwwwww!! Cats indeed!!

[ceitfianna]

Because he's a kitty and adorable is just part of how they work.

The look on his face makes me think, why are you looking at me? I want to be asleep, here have a paw.

[yakalskovich]

Oh yes, he definitely wanted to be asleep and went right on sleeping after I posted this. But he is too much of a cat to not lift his head and look when the human is doing something with her electronic machinery.
