Oscar and Stanley tend to wrestle so much that sometimes I forget they’re bonded. Then I walk and and see stuff like this. Such love, such snuggles. They make my heart happy.

CPotD #070: Milk Top Madness
Today’s photo shows the milk top that brought about yesterday’s tiny doom. He has multiple milk tops stashed around the house and often deposits then in our chairs or the bed when he’s on a rampage. This one lives in the bedroom right now. Every time I throw one away I find two more, so […]
CPotD #069: Tiny Doom
Oscar was rampaging with his milk top this morning, so I flopped down for an impromptu photo shoot. He noticed this and launched a counter attack. This was my view seconds before I had a face full of small cat. Although he was in attack mode, all I received was a super energetic head bump, […]
CPotD #067: Feeties
I got surprise bonus Oscar snugs this evening! He’s been in Strong Independent Kitten mode these days, so I’m thrilled to get some extra foot snugs. Oscar isn’t quite as big a fan of the feeties as Stanley is (he prefers the lap), but he’s just as cute when he snugs them. He was watching […]
CPotD #066: Warmth
It’s been unseasonably cool this week, so the cats have been finding warmth where they can. For example, Oscar wedged his rear under a pillow to stay warmer while being my gym bro. It’s hard to focus sometimes while surrounded by so much cute, but I persevere.
CPotD #065: The Model
Oscar has created a ritual around accosting me when I walk into the bedroom. He winds around my feet, squeaks at me with a puffed tail, and leaps onto the bed to bathe. This morning I caught him just sitting like this. To be fair, he was mid-bath and had stopped to glare at the […]
CPotD #060: Busy
Oscar has always been a busy cat. If he’s awake, he’s focused on something, especially during prime birding season like now. I often get the “Do you mind, I’m trying to bird” face when I interrupt him. He seems exasperated by interruptions for photos, but he’s never retaliated with more than a stink eye. Photos […]
CPotD #058: Small Might
Now that he’s over a year old, Oscar takes up more of the window sill than he first did. He’s still pretty small for a young adult cat, but he makes up for it with fierceness and heart. He brings me joy every day and I’m glad we have him, even when he’s being a […]
CPotD #057: Bird Watcher
Oscar has pretty much lived in the bedroom window since we opened up for the pre-summer breeze season, and he has become a proficient bird watcher. His prey this morning was a pair of robins. He was stalking them with all his might while they gathered nesting materials and ignored his existence. Luckily for them, […]
CPotD #051: Storm Kitten
We had a stormy morning complete with Walmart adventures and lightning-induced power outages, and Oscar was on hand to monitor the situation on the home front. He’s not a fan of lightning or thunder, but that doesn’t stop him from keeping an eye on things. He’s a diligent protector like his big brothers.
