KPotD #316: The Return of Long Kitten

We’re into our holiday rewatch of the Lord of the Rings movies and Oscar is helping by providing post-dinner snugs of a stretchy variety. We also discovered last night that he now weighs 10.5 pounds because he sat on the scale as I was getting ready for bed. I’m not sure if I’m more proud […]

KPotD #313: Power Snugs

Oscar has been practicing his long-cat poses, which he’s improved by stretching his front paws out while he’s draped over my legs. This was after he’d been watching TV with us while we ate lunch. Fellowship of the Ring was on and he was super interested in the moth that Gandalf grabs on top of […]

KPotD #312: Christmas Tree Outtake

Oscar rarely cooperates when I’m going for a kitten pic, but sometimes the outtakes are better than the shot I was chasing. In this case, I was sprawled in the floor next to the Christmas tree and he lost all interest in the tree. He had to see what I was doing instead, which involved […]

KPotD #311: Kitten vs. Christmas Tree, Episode 4

Today’s episode is more like Kitten vs. Tiny Christmas Tree. We always put up our little dollar store tree somewhere in the house, and the last couple of years it’s been on the dining room table. Oscar found it immediately, pulled it over once, and ignored it… until today. He chomped it and pulled it […]

KPotD #310: Kitten vs. Christmas Tree, Episode 3

The butthorn gene is definitely strong with this one. I decorated the tree last night, and while he was slow to take interest, Oscar has definitely noticed the new temptations. In addition to investigating the ornaments within his reach (the mostly indestructible ones), he’s realized there are lights. Heaven help me if he starts to […]

KPotD #309: Kitten vs. Christmas Tree, Episode 2

So far, so good. The tree is still standing with its lone ornament, probably helped by the liberal dosing of orange spray Brian treated it with yesterday afternoon. Oscar still sits under the tree and snorfles the branches, but hasn’t shown any interest in chewing on it. We’ll see how he does with more ornaments!

KPotD #308: Kitten vs. Christmas Tree, Episode 1

I suspect this is going to be a series. We put up the tree yesterday and hung a few sacrificial ornaments to see how big a butthorn Oscar is going to be. So far, he’s at Medium Butthorn levels, but he’s gaining confidence. Stan was a holy terror his first two Christmases, knocking off ornaments […]
