  1. The kittens are close enough to adult size to begin harness training them in earnest.

    The dramatic flopping and posturing (O, the horror, a Thing Is Touching My Fur! Halp, I am paralyzed!) is the second-most entertaining part, as always.

    The most entertaining part is how fast the paralysis & indignation disappear as soon as a favored toy and/or some treats arrive on the scene.

  3. Me: *washes all the bedding down to the mattress pad*
    Hugo the cat: *immediately lays on and rolls around every layer as I reassemble the clean linens on bed, shedding as much as possible in the process*

  5. Charlie, from the other end of the apartment: "Meow."
    Me: "Come over here and say that to my face."
    Charlie: (walks into the living room and stands directly facing me) "MEOW."

    I think I now know the Cat word for "I said what I said."

  7. I woke up curled like a prawn, my freshly healed neck scrunched up wrongly and hurting again.

    Then Willow launched herself at my shoulders, banging into MY SORE NECK like a cannon ball..

    Tiny Shoulder Kitten is now a Lethal Weapon 😹

    (Ow. Owowoow.. )

  9. Protip:
    If you have a black cat, do NOT wear a white shirt in the middle of shedding season. Especially when you have choir rehearsal later in the day.

    Especially especially when you can't find your lint roller.

    At this point I've just given up on wearing this shirt tonight, and I'll change before I head out.

  11. Lulu the #cat is lying on my mattress. I lie next to her. I gesticulate to her to climb on my chest, so I would get more space. She looks at me like I was some moron. In the meantime, Ruh notices the gesture and jumps on my chest.

    Situation: I'm lying on half of the mattress. On one side, Lulu is stretching next to me and pushing me down. On the other, Ruh is lying on my chest, counterweighing me to the floor. I push my elbow against the bedside table not to fall.

    But miraculously, they don't fight, so I ensure. Lulu started washing Ruh, and Ruh doesn't mind. I'm flabbergasted.

    To the moment when Ruh suddenly starts sliding down, so she pushes all her claws into my chest. I shriek painfully, and both cats run away.

  13. The problem with cute tiny Shoulder Kittens, is that.. they get bigger.

    (But no less boisterous 😅)

  15. Aww yes, the legs / arm / chest Triple Cat Blanket.

    - Miralka enjoys Laptop-watching.

    - Bluebell is a Leg Cat, but Darcy had claimed that spot.

    She Armed for a bit.

    Miralka's arrival normally drives her back to Legs, but in the meantime, Bluebell developed an interest in the movie..

    She then moved to perch on my CHEST (she's tiny, I'll allow it)

  17. The cats have only removed about 3 ornaments from the Christmas tree. We've had worse years! We only have plastic because of this 😉

  19. Der Kater deutet vorsichtig an, dass er jetzt gerne auf mir schlafen würde.

    Not pictured:
    Der Kater, wie er trotz Gegenwehr auf mir Platz nimmt.
    Ich, wie ich sage "Bitte sabber' mir nicht schon wieder in den Ausschnitt".

  21. Darcy just marched up to Cappuccino to say hi, and she hissed and slapped him 😩

    Cap is still Upset About Everything.

    (Everything being Jasper)

    Yay feline diplomacy!

    (Diplo-mousey?)

  23. Autumn means Selena is extra cuddly and growing even fluffier than she is in summer.

  24. 1. Get back from shop

    2. Discover you didn't *quite* close the Drawer properly

    3. 😵‼️CHAOS: your WRETCHED SIAMESE(*) is digging in there, happily flinging things to the ground.

    Scarves are dangling out.

    Hats, Gloves etc lie scattered on the floor (the work of the other Wretched Siamese)

    (*Miralka, who else..)

  26. Journals and pens
    Pillows and blankets
    The cat curled up next to me
    His tail around my wrist
    It’s always the simple things
    That have such perfection

  27. It’s very late. I really should be asleep.
    Pippin is lying next to me purring loudly in my face.
    For some reason, I am having trouble dozing off.
