Oscar is all about good form while sleeping. Here he is displaying the Loosened Pillbug Pose while recharging from his morning rampage. The curved back and perpendicular feet positioning are on point. He’s such a talent!
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 #357: Brotherly Scraps
Oscar and Stan scrap a lot, usually at Oscar’s insistence. Stan could probably do with a bit less wrestling in his life, but Oscar loves him too much to leave him alone. Today’s action shot is a prime example. Their expressions say it all. Oscar: “Yaaaaaaah!!” Stan: “Ugh.”
KPotD #356: Small Patrol
Oscar spent the afternoon on patrol and this time managed to avoid canine turf invasion. I made the mistake of bumping into the blinds while coming in to take the picture and he thought we were under attack.
KPotD #355: Turf Scuffle
The sun is out today, so Oscar is all about his window time. Unfortunately, he’s not fond of sharing the windows, so a brief scuffle ensued when Udo came to see what was going on out front.
KPotD #354: Grumpy Loaf
Oscar isn’t a fan of the cold, rainy weather, so he’s protesting by carving out a little fort on the bed and loafing in it. You can tell he’s grumpy by the set of his ears.
KPotD #353: Toe Stripe
Oscar’s been spending more snug time the past couple of days since it’s gotten colder. I thought I could catch him being cute with Stan this morning, but nope. Snug shot denied. Instead, we get to admire his toe stripe.
KPotD #352: Box Chomp
Oscar has always been into boxes (literally), but his real passion is chewing on the flap corners. I set an Amazon box on the table to put with the recycle stuff later, and he immediately went to town on it.
KPotD #351: Ambush Predator
Oscar likes to hide behind whatever’s available (often me) to ambush his prey of the moment. I have no idea what he was after here, but he jumped on it from behind the table leg. Whatever it was, I’m sure it’s now thoroughly dead. He’s a conscientious killer.
KPotD #350: Grumpy Monday
Oscar is not a fan of Mondays. We get up early, we leave the house, we do stuff other than dote on him when he’s awake. It’s a drag.
KPotD #349: The Slither
Oscar has a penchant for hiding things (usually bug carcasses or milk tops) under our rugs. When he does this, he performs a patented slither maneuver along the side of the rug before shoving the toy into position, like so.
