Around the Kitteh Haus

It has been quite a season for kittens!  Little Jasmine and Oliver Twist (Ollie) are the last two left who need to find forever homes. Until then, they are having a swell time with the resident redheads.

Aunt Mari made this playhouse for the kittens,
 but apparently it has ageless appeal!

"Geezoontite! You wanna tissue?"

Jasmine's out like a light.

Dreaming of a home together . . .

Rosie and Her Bug

Bugsy has really brought out Rosie's maternal instinct.  And all this time we thought she was a grouchy girl!

Kitteh Yoga

The cats practice yoga on a daily basis.  They are able to hold the poses (asanas) for an amazingly long time, breaking their concentration only for tuna. I have heard them chanting - purrrrrr-ommmmm, purrrrrrr-ommmmm. I think Charley and Ollie are natural-born yogis. I look to them for guidance and inspiration.

Sabu and Chai are Adopted - and Transformed!

Sabu and Chai went home with their forever family a few days ago and ascended Mount Olympus to become "Perseus" (Percy) and Annabeth, names chosen by Olivia and Vanessa from the the wonderful book "The Lightning Thief", by Rick Riordan. Percy and Annabeth will join a fabulous menagerie that includes two dogs, three chickens, Opal the cat, Popcorn the guinea pig, and a young corn snake! I'll keep everyone posted on the various introductions.

Handsome, marshmallow-pawed Percy.

Large and lovely Opal.  She's in charge.

Both Olivia and the kittens are tickled to be together.

Sister and brother, snug together.

Kitty Mixer

The new kittens got a clean bill of health last week and were allowed to meet the resident cats.  Bugsy was over the moon to have so many playmates.  Charley got right down to mentoring in the proper way to play and Rosie is trying to teach those little wild things some manners. Now if someone could just teach them to scoop the litter boxes . . . 

Charley has his paws full with Jasmine and Chai.

Cuddle Bugsy and Ollie.

"OK, kid - that's really not necessary."

All Chai needs to complete the look is a rhinestone collar.

"So what's for dessert?"

"These kids wear me out!"

Tails of Fun and Adventure

Bugsy and Sabu share a basket snoozle.

"Love ya, bro."

  

In good company.

More kittens????

YES! These four were rescued when their feral mom was trapped so she could be spayed and vaccinated.  How could we say no? (Brain damage, probably.) They are about 8 weeks old and have decided they LOVE people and the great indoors!

JASMINE  needs unlimited minutes on her phone plan, because
she LOVES to talk!  

This little boy has four white socks and is ready for adventure.
(We still need a good name for him, though!)

This is CHAI, our pretty, exotic girl.  Look at those blue eyes!

Chai's brother, SABU, digs into dinner with both paws. They
are almost twins, but Sabu has white socks.

Good kitties cleaning their plate!

Bugsy Settles In

Bugsy (aka Bug-Z) has settled in just fine and has a clean bill of health from the vet.  He loves his Uncle Charley and Aunt Rosie, and lives up to his name "BUG" on a daily basis!

What's for dinner?

Snoozle with Aunt Rosie

Awww . . . 

"I is BOY CAT!"

Still just a baby . . .

. . . who needs lots of sleep.
