Oscar has a lot of little qualities that make him unique. One of them is the way he likes to sit, especially when he’s working on his tail. He sits like this all the time, and it’s starting to remind me of Al Bundy. I’m just waiting for him to tell me the captain has […]

KPotD #288: The Judge
Like all cats, Oscar excels at judging things: his food, his toys, his brothers, us. I walked into the bathroom this morning to find him sitting like a tiny, straight-faced judge on top of the wall separating the toilet from the sink area. He hopped onto my shoulder and gave me kisses after that, so […]
KPotD #287: The Tail
Oscar has had a vendetta against his tail since we brought him home. He’s constantly attacking it with aggro chomps and power cleaning, like so. When I mentioned it to his vet, she said he’s probably just a bit compulsive and that’s how he stays busy when he’s not rampaging. I think she’s right, and […]
KPotD #286: The Hunter
Oscar loves to hunt and sees pretty much everything as prey: bugs, leaves, Udo, and most importantly, Stan. I caught him pre-pounce as Stan was lurking on the window sill. His singular focus is impressive, as is the complete carnage he can wreak upon the household. He’s our tiny, mighty hunter.
KPotD #285: Warm Caturday
Oscar has deemed it too warm to flop in his afternoon sun patch today, so he’s chosen a random bit of dining room floor instead. I also tried to get a good shot of his belly floof, but Udo walked over to help and I ended up with failed blurry action shots. The cute is […]
KPotD #284: Squirrel Surveillance
Oscar took a break from rampaging today to observe the local squirrel activity and make sure they weren’t doing anything dodgy. He then jumped into one of my houseplants and we had to have another firm discussion about why he shouldn’t do that. It’s been quite a week.
KPotD #283: Weather Snugs
The current weather could best be described as “gross,” so we’re all extra snuggy. As Oscar shows in today’s pic, it feels nice to be warm and dry. He appreciates laps and recliners more than any cat I’ve ever known, and he is not afraid to show it.
KPotD #282: New Friend
Here’s another shot of Oscar hanging out with his new friend, the sewing machine. Note his tail on the foot paddle. He never did this stuff when the machine was in the guest bedroom, so maybe it’s a location thing, or maybe I just didn’t see it because we aren’t in there much. Either way, […]
KPotD #282: Sewing
Oscar likes to rampage across the entire house when he really gets going, and nothing is safe. Not even our antique sewing machine, which caught his attention today for some mystifying reason. Nothing was moving, so I have no idea what possessed him to prairie-dog up and paw at the machine. He’s never done that […]
KPotD #281: Untitled
Yes, untitled, because how do you describe this pose? Seriously? He had been rolling cutely for me, so I went to snap a picture. Then Stan walked in and distracted him, and I got this. This kitten has zero chill and zero shame. I adore him.
