Oscar hit up his favorite after-dinner sunning spot this evening, which inspired me to get a few shots because he’s extra cute when he vegetates on the window sill. He looks so much like Stan from this angle that I’d have to do a double-take if he didn’t have white toes. His brother definitely taught […]
Category: Kitten Pic of the Day
A subset of Critter Pics of the Day, focusing on a year of daily shots when we got a new kitten. Any future new kitties will be added to this category.
KPotD #248: Floor Wars
After 248 days, I’ve finally managed an action shot. Oscar had begun his nightly pre-bed rampage and tried to engage Stan in his depredations. I caught this picture just as Stan reared up to smite him in the head. The Two-Foot Block move will go down in history as super cute and utterly ineffective. Stan […]
KPotD #247: Fuzzy Toes
Oscar was being regal on the bed this afternoon, so I decided to snap some pictures. He immediately began to bathe, because how dare I try to document his regal self, and presented me with an outstanding view of his very fuzzy toes. That is a murder mitten laying in wait for a hapless victim, […]
KPotD #246: Fall Incoming
We have cooler weather in the forecast, so I broke out my coffee pajama pants tonight. Oscar approves. He stretched out along my leg after this and we discovered that he is now long enough to reach from my hip to my ankle. He’s come a long way from the tiny ball of fuzz that […]
KPotD #245: Sharing is Caring
Oscar loves to join Stan when he’s lounging, especially in the Cray Station. Stan is never particularly enthused about this arrangement, but he continues to get better at tolerating it. They stayed like this for nearly half an hour. That’s a record for Cray Station sharing and it didn’t even devolve into a slap fight. […]
KPotD #244: Sunbeam Outtakes
Some of yesterday’s outtakes were so good we had to share them. I was laying in the floor half under the table to get these and I think they were worth the effort. As always, floor photo sessions are best photo sessions.
KPotD #243: Sun Kitten
Oscar has combined two of his favorite activities this weekend: lounging in a sunbeam and attempting to murder my ivy plant. Seeing as how he was multitasking, I consider this an action shot. This was the first shot in the series and actually turned out the best. We’ll publish some outtakes tomorrow.
KPotD #242: Gaming Helper
Oscar often helps me when we’re gaming since I take the laptop and flop comfortably on the love seat, which means he gets one of his favorite spots: the footrest. He was happy to join me today while we played World of Warcraft. He was protecting me from Udo, who had left two of his […]
KPotD #241: He Missed Us
We were out of the house for most of the day today, so Oscar wasted no time initiating the dinner snug. He’s been keeping a very close eye on us since we walked in the door. I’m pretty sure he missed us.
KPotD #240: The Platform
Oscar decided to join us for a lunchtime snug today and stuck around for a quick bath session before launching into his next round of mayhem. He’s especially fastidious about his toes. As it was with his predecessors, he’s decided I’m the ultimate bathing platform. And, as it also was with his predecessors, I’m okay […]
