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 […]

KPotD #307: Sunday Snugday
My legs have become prime real estate now that the weather has gotten colder. Stan usually hogs them when I’m in the recliner, but Oscar managed to snag a snug this afternoon while we were enjoying lunch. He was doing his best bunny impression and I had to document the extra cuteness. His winter coat […]
KPotD #306: Singer Kitten
Oscar had a rousing play session around the sewing machine and dining room table this morning, so I flopped in the floor to try for some action shots. I’m pretty happy with this one. Note the milk top just in front of his toes. He stopped his rampage to inspect the sewing machine and then […]
KPotD #305: Bath Blep
I caught Oscar in mid-bath with Stan, which I think counts as an action shot because look at this quality blep. Occasionally, he’ll forget what he was doing and blep like that for a couple of minutes. Tiny Oscar bleps always make my day.
KPotD #304: Thankful Kitten
People often say that rescue animals know they’ve been rescued and are thankful for their adopted families. Having had rescues for years, I agree and can tell Oscar is no exception. I’ve never seen a happier, snuggier kitten in my life. He takes every opportunity to show us he loves us and he makes my […]
KPotD #303: Busy Day
The last few weeks have been frantically busy and yesterday was no exception. Chores, work deadlines, and a sick dog were in the mix. By the time we finished dinner, Oscar and I were both worn out. I’m pretty sure I fell asleep exactly like this a couple of hours later. Fortunately, there is no […]
KPotD #302: Bathing Brothers
Oscar loves his brothers, especially Stan, and he shows it by washing them as often as possible whether they like it or not. As you can see by Stan’s expression, it’s usually “not.” Stan’s a good big brother and puts up with it more than the other two. Nutter usually responds with a whap and […]
KPotD #301: Work Week
Oscar was back on duty this morning after a relaxing Sunday. Those squirrels need to be watched, after all. They are prone to shenanigans. We clearly felt the same way about being awake this morning. He did get to nap in the sun beams, but I suspect we’ll all go to bed earlier tonight.
KPotD #300: Sunday Coffee Sits
After a productive Saturday of housework and laundry, we’re enjoying a loaf-filled Sunday. Really, we’re baking a loaf of banana bread and loafing around the nice clean house. Not that it stays clean for long these days. Udo is blowing his coat and we live in a maelstrom of dog hair, but it’s a happy […]
