Oh good lord, you guys. Are you ready for this kind of cute? You might want to sit down before you go any further…

That’s Pearl (formerly Dandelion) and her brother Duke, all snuggled up for a nap. Can you stand it? Are you feeling faint from the cute? So so so so SO SWEET!

Barbara mentioned in yesterday’s comments that I’m costing her money (she fosters during the Summer) between the Sherpa blanket I recommended, and the sparkle balls. I have to admit, it is WAY more fun to spend other people’s money than my own, so I feel compelled to mention that these scratchers at Fab.com are a really good price and if I weren’t completely stocked up on both kinds of scratchers, I’d be stocking up right now! They’re a hit with cats big and small.

Just sayin’! (You’re welcome!)

Also, Charlene posted and said:

BUT, gotta share this other deal that I can’t justify spending the money on but oh-so-want someone to benefit from: custom photo mugs (11 oz) for just $2! at Yorkphoto.com  Use the “PETMUG” coupon code. Site says expires Jan. 31. I didn’t try it out, so can’t guarantee that it works, but worth a look for someone who doesn’t have a cupboard overflowing with mugs like we do.

Oh, and BTW, the Boinks mesh straw-thingys that you gave the link to last week? I had to check those out as well. Then I found them a lot cheaper on Amazon if you buy a pack of 10 — its only $9.99 and it ships free

Gotta love a bargain. 🙂

Yesterday I finished cleaning the foster room so it’s all ready to go when the time comes. All I’ll have to do is set up litter boxes and food and water bowls, no rushing around frantically scrubbing every surface clean the way I usually do.

And then I cleaned out the closet in the guest bedroom. When I was done, I felt all unsettled like I’d forgotten to do something. I finally realized that I didn’t have to pull kittens out of the closet before I could close the door, and who knows when the last time was that THAT happened!

While I’m kittenless, I think I’m going to get some more closets and bookcases and POSSIBLY even my desk drawers cleaned out. Who says I don’t know how to par-tay?

The last of the ‘Maters (& Kohle!) pictures from before they went off to Petsmart last week!

Dingwallace, playing fetch.

Mr. Stripey, juggling the sparkleball.

“O sparkleball, I love you so.”

Dingwallace, requesting some love.

More juggling.

He’s pretty good at that, huh?

Perhaps I have mentioned that his silly face cracks me up?

“This is a nice view, but the view from my FOREVER HOME is going to be way better, I just know it.” (I bet he’s right!)

Sungold in da box.

Dingle Bells with the sparkleball, his heart-shaped bikini bottoms on view.

Sadly, after this photo session, the sparkleball didn’t have long to live. Ten minutes later, they had somehow ripped it to shreds. I had to throw it away so they wouldn’t eat it. I’ve never seen that happen with a sparkleball before!

“Long-legged Cheetah, I keel you.”

“Cheetah is tasty.”

::CHOMP::

Sungold showing off the green collar that once was his. But he got so good at taking it off that I replaced it. And they immediately turned the old collar into a toy, of course.

Alice Mo and Loony Jake, showing off just how much they love that sherpa blanket.
