Purrin’ Persian

Today’s customer is a sassy handful of dryer lint named Fig, a Persian kitten who emerges from his bath even fluffier than going in. (via Dana D.)

Miri is Serious

Birds are serious business, and normally playful Kitten Miri gets focused when they’re nearby. Even more serious: Getting her paws washed.

Weekend Open Thread

We’re having open thread on the patio today, because reader N. Fritz is introducing us to a new friend who leads a life of danger.

This is Ramses. His human is my bf’s sister. Ramses shows up in our garden sometimes, and now that Mutz (rhymes with “puts”) is no longer a rival, we try to make him feel welcome. Shortly after this photo was taken, a neighbor reported that Ramses darted across the busy street in front of our house and “may” have been hit by a car. We’ve all spent a couple of nervous days until this afternoon, when my bf’s sister reported that Ramses was alive and well. Phew!

What! I’m fine, chill.
