This sweet boy is Parker.

Parker was rescued by Forgotten Felines of Huntsville volunteer Lauren; he’d been discarded in a parking lot in Tennessee like so much garbage, due likely to the fact that he had a hernia that required surgery. He was just 10 weeks old. With lots of love and care, he recovered and became a sweet, friendly, playful kitten.

And then he developed FIP. (You may remember that our sweet foster Ian passed away from FIP earlier this year.) The only treatment for FIP is an expensive antiviral, and this is where help is needed. If you can possibly donate to help fund Parker’s FIP treatment, please either click on his picture up there or on this link right here to see his GoFundMe. Every little bit helps, of course, and if you can please share the GoFundMe, I’d appreciate it so much.

Your good thoughts for Parker are also always, always appreciated. ❤❤❤

I love Linzer’s serious little face.


Linzer gets her thlurrrp on.


Cinnaspin is always judging me.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Francesca feelin’ thlurrrpy in the sunshine.


Francesca has the MOST beautiful eyes.


Francesca and Nacho are all “What?” (Please note Kim in the background on the recliner, thinking “Yeah, YOU keep ’em occupied for a while.”)


A girl and her green bean.


Churu? What Churu?

Of all our permanent residents, Jake is the only one who actively seeks out the company of his siblings and will snuggle up to them. They always tolerate him pretty well (until they don’t, in which case a smack gets Jake moving along to another permanent resident.) Charlie’s face in this picture makes me think there’s a smack with Jake’s name on it in the near future.

Posted on social media (Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/Tumblr) over the weekend.


NO ONE EATS ALONE. (Cinnaspin, left, and Linzer)


Nacho the little rebel doesn’t even CARE that it’s not Thlurrrpsday, she’s gonna thlurrrp when she wants to.


YouTube link
Everyone else is napping, but Nacho’s just not all that tired. (Also, she needed a BOOP or two.)


I love this picture so very much (that you can’t see all of Nacho makes it even better, I think.)


YouTube link
It’s play time for the Cookie girls. (That track toy is VERY interesting to them. Imagine how excited they’ll be when they get to the foster room and see the other track toy!)


Cinnaspin the poser. (The toilet in the background really adds to the classy ambiance, don’t you think?)


Good night innernets. (Kim Wexler)⁠


Linzer would like breakfast in bed, please and thank you.


Still available for adoption are sisters Francesca (left) and Nacho (right.) They are just over 5 months old, and once their mother goes home in a few days, they will be heading to Petsmart to see if that’s where their people are hanging out since apparently they’re not hanging out on social media.⁠


YouTube link
I can’t get the kittens to jump for toys any more (I guess they find it boring?), and Francesca keeps mama clean.


I tossed a couple of toys in that box, and it has Linzer and Cinnaspin COMPLETELY befuddled.


Good night innernets. (Kim Wexler)


YouTube link
The Cookie Girls purr, purr, purrrr. These sweet snuggly girls are just the SWEETEST.


Sittin’ in the cat tree, watchin’ the birds. (Francesca, left, and Nacho.)


YouTube link
Kim still loves to play, in case you wondered!


Linzer and Cinnaspin are all “Watchin’ you, lady.”


YouTube link
Poor Nacho – the slow sneak to the milk bar gets her NOWHERE, but that doesn’t stop her from giving it the ol’ college try.


YouTube link
A little jumping, a little running, all in slow motion. (I love seeing Frannie run in slow motion.)


Good night innernets. (Cinnaspin & Linzer)

    While looking at a pic of Francesca, Nacho, and Kim, it occurred to me that “Mama Was a Meezer” would be a good name for a tell-all book.

    1. Robyn says:

      I’d read that!

    I love Jake. That is all.

    What did you DO to Cinna????

    1. Robyn says:
      January 12, 2023 at 1:31 pm

      I don’t remember, but I’m sure kissing was involved!

    Poor Parker! πŸ™ I hope the GS441524 works for him!!

    Happy birthday, Robyn! πŸ™‚

    Re. the 2012 post and “because who on EARTH doesn’t know how old they are”; it might be a South Korean person. Per an NPR article in December of last year, “South Korea currently uses three age-counting systems, but most citizens abide by the “Korean age,” where a person is 1 year old as soon as they are born, and gain one year on every New Year’s Day. And a baby born on Dec. 31 would be considered 2 years old the next day.”

    BUT… that’s about to change, apparently, in June of this year, to where age will be based on birth date. Whew.

      January 12, 2023 at 1:32 pm

      Thank you!

      And thanks for the interesting S. Korean info – I only have the one date to keep track of, and half the time I have to stop and think REAL HARD to figure out how old I am!

    Is mamma Kim still adoption pending?

    1. Robyn says:
      January 9, 2023 at 2:36 pm

      She is on the way home (with her adopter) right this minute, actually. πŸ™‚

    Happy Birthday, Robyn!

      Thanks! πŸ™‚

    I just saw a little of your bio. We were born same month and year! We both love cats!

    I’m wondering if you can say which part of Massachusetts – not the specific town, just north, south, east, west kind of thing – is Kim’s new home? I see I’m not the Massachusetts resident welcoming her to the Bay State!

    1. Robyn says:
      January 9, 2023 at 7:42 pm

      They’re in Eastern Massachusetts – about 40 minutes from Logan airport, as I understand it. πŸ™‚

      1. Paula Mahoney says:
        January 10, 2023 at 6:26 am

        Thanks. I’m on the opposite side of the state, but I do have family out that way.

        I don’t know the exact date, so I will say Happy Birthday today!

        1. Robyn says:
          January 12, 2023 at 1:33 pm

          Monday was actually my birthday – and there’s no other way I wanted to spend it than sending Mama Kim on her journey home. (Happy birthday to you, too!)

    Maybe tuxies and house panthers are easily bored? My own tuxedo cat gave me the prolonged Look Of Disdain yesterday as I tried to interest him in playing with several of his favorite toys.
