Even bigger, even weirder. Sometimes he just sits in the sink, confused by the water running off to the side while it deflects off his ear. He's so glossy it just slides off him. He's about 5 months old, I think. He's an rear end in a top hat but I deserve it for naming him Snowflake.

This is from a couple months ago. He's a lot bigger now, with 100% less ringworm, but his tail is still rather long compared to the rest of him. He's also an idiot and I had to take him back to the vet after he got the handle end of a toy all the way down his oesophagus. So that brings the count to: respiratory virus, conjunctivitis, ringworm, poisoning and kidney failure, and irritated oesophagus--and bouncing back every time. I'm still struggling with his aggression, though. The ringworm kept him separate from my senior cat long enough for him to catch up to her in size, and he flying tackles her to the ground every chance he gets. He's about five months old now. May need an exorcist more than a vet.

No longer the size of a Clif Bar. This was his last hurrah before getting neutered the next day. I put a sticky on his carrier that said, "I'm a jerk who bites really hard!" to warn the vet staff, since he's broken the skin on a vet in the past. He was one of five neuters that day, and the staff said he was the most cuddly, lovely, gentle sweetheart of the lot, and the only one that didn't bite. Of course, as soon as I let him out the carrier, he was high as a kite and tried to murder my foot. Sorry 'bout the portrait view. I forgot to turn the phone.

Please help me name my glorious black kitty.



I named her Valenki for the vet registration, but I just call her Kitty all the time. Three syllables is too long a name for a small cat. Maybe something short like Nip or Perk. She loves looking at water and enjoys whipped cream and toast. She taught herself how to play fetch and is very talkative. BEST CAT

Valenki is such a pretty name, though. I'd probably end up calling her Ki.

I have no regrets over Snowflake's name but I did feel pretty stupid yelling for snow in the pouring rain on my porch when he got out and burrowed into my rose bushes like the rear end in a top hat cat he is.

Sammo digs way too much in the litter and comes out like this every time, ideas to change that? It's a 3x1.5ft closed top box, using World's Best multi-cat lavender litter. When they were at the rescuer's home they were using the pine pellet stuff.


Snowflake does this too. (He also spins around in the litter box like a chinchilla taking a sand-bath which is super gross.) I think it might be a World's Best thing. I'm using roughly 50/50 blend of World's Best and Feline Fresh Pine Litter. I have three litter boxes going right now and none of them are more than an inch deep. They get scooped a couple times a day.

Snowflake asserting that he's still a tiny adorable kitten.

He tries to take down my older cat like she's a gazelle on the Serengeti, he's chewed through two USB cables, shredded four art projects, and eaten through the bottom inch of my flipchart paper. I can't brush my teeth without first removing him from the sink, and he bites pretty hard when he's wound up. My feet are covered in scratches from ambushes. On the other hand, he jumped in the bathtub last night without realizing it was full, and got a quarter of a bagel stuck on his claws while trying to lick the butter off this morning. He also loves hugs.

Snowflake eats books, art projects, and wet food but only if it is for Sari and only if she wants it. He also hugs with his teeth. He steals post-its off my desk and shreds them into confetti under my bed when I'm trying to sleep.

The new door-attached tower has put an end to the era of anything else on that wall. He also does a great lawn-dart impression from there to the bed at 3am.

This was the picture I took before dropping the phone so I could catch the ornament.

Heck yeah, tuxedo cats rule too! When my parent’s last cat died, I was reading this thread for the first time. When mom got over the grieving, I insisted that we got a black cat from a shelter. Lo and behold, they were doing a clear the shelter on Memorial Day weekend, adoptions were half off, black cats were half of that. So now she’s got Sylvester, the discount monster.


Almost a match for my Ethics.
