Cats

I turned on my heated blanket this morning before changing out of my workout clothes so my work spot would be nice and warm. In the two minutes I was gone, Oscar noticed the warmth and stole my chair. Fortunately for me he got distracted by a sound in the kitchen and hopped up to…

Oscar has been adjusting well to the weather fluctuations we’ve been getting lately. He quite likes the cold mornings for snugging dad. He’s also discovered the heated bed that we got for Tai and Nutter a few years ago. Nutter spends a lot of time in it, and Stan has been using it as well,…

Oscar has been helping me on my return to the gym this week after two months off to fix a bursitis issue. Bench Press Kitten always offers excellent moral support, and I’m glad to say the workouts went well. He’s one of the best parts of having a home gym, no doubt about it. Between…

This is what I’m presented with any time I try to go out the front door. He especially loves to lay there in the afternoon sun, but he does this in the morning too. I call it departure prevention because, well, it’s super effective. Seriously, how am I supposed to just step over that bundle…

I interrupted Oscar in a bath-snug session with Stan this morning and he was not pleased about it. Note the expression. Stan was his usual long-suffering self, but I’m glad to say it didn’t turn into a slap fight. The cuddle puddles are getting more frequent by the day!

Oscar likes to redistribute Udo’s toys as Kitten Entertainment Devices and temporary forts from which he can ambush us all. His choice today was Udo’s favorite pull toy, affectionately known as The Innard because it looks like a rope of intestine. Udo takes this in stride and just waits for Oscar to get bored and…

Oscar was happy to share his sun beam with me this afternoon when I took a break to get some kitten pics for today. His eyes look especially golden when he lounges in afternoon beams and I think they’re gorgeous. He seems to have started growing into his bone structure, so he looks more like…

Stan has taken up residence on Brian’s backpack because the table is an excellent place to observe our fish tank. Oscar likes to hop up there to hassle Stan, but tonight he noticed the fish. Stan is obviously less than thrilled about this arrangement, but he hasn’t tossed Oscar off the table. Yet. Give it…

The weather was gorgeous today, but still cool enough to necessitate post-dinner lap snugs. Oscar was so worn out from the day’s rampaging that he hopped in my lap and just crashed where he was. He melts my heart when he crashes like this. And he’s started sleeping between us at night again for maximum…

Oscar decided to enjoy some pre-dinner sunbeams today after chores were done. The little tuft of orange in the upper right corner is Nutter’s rear end on the window sill. That spot is becoming pretty popular this fall. Those two also shared my lap this morning while I had my coffee, so I think cuddle…
