Line ’em up!

There’s Rum! When I tell you that boy has “annoying little brother” energy, I am not kidding.

Rum giving Ollie the ol’ chomperoo.

Rum’s all “You say there’s Churu somewhere?” (There was not. This was a feather teaser occasion.)

“Hmph. I’ll just wait here ’til there’s Churu, then.”

Posted on social media (Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/Tumblr/ Bluesky) yesterday.

Ollie’s been keeping a watch on the neighborhood and would like the birds who keep flitting around in the tree to come closer.

Throwback Thursday: in 2015, when I was fostering Peter, Paul (pictured) and Mary, I proclaimed that we’d never had a Diamond-Bellied Tuxie before and that they were extremely rare. And several people (including Fred) believed that was a thing.

Throw Back Thursday: from 2015, Mary spitting at me. She was so PLEASED with herself!

Your daily Rumdangle, co-starring me as today’s danglebase.

Throw Back Thursday: in 2021, we were waiting impatiently for Canasta to give birth to her kittens. She got impossibly huge – and then she got bigger. This picture was taken about 3 days before she finally gave birth to SIX kittens.

Welcome 😀
Oh i remember that kitten spitting, and then falling over backwards! The cheek. lol

…just because we never want to be without him!!!
I have to agree! He has a most unique talent that the world needs to know about and what better place than Love and Hisses?!
Great job getting 4 to pose together.
I agree that Rum should be a permanent resident
I am so sorry for the loss of Ms. Alice the Calico. I have been reading this blog since 2011 and has been my bright spot on many a crappy day. I will miss Ms. Alice and her lovely cattitude.
May the Rainbow Bridge have extra colors in solidarity for her highness.
Oh, NO! I just saw your tumbler post (I can’t get to your FB page, for some reason). I can’t believe this is happening!
I’m so sorry for the loss of your precious girl! Fred must be crushed. I’m interested to know what happened; I didn’t realize she was that ill. Much love and hugs to you at this difficult time.
Dear Robyn and Fred,
My heart goes out to you on the loss of your precious Alice (Mo, the Calico). She was a special cat among special cats, and I am sure I’m not the only follower of Love and Hisses who will miss her.
Wishing you comfort and strength.
Oh, Rum, it’s a good thing the others love you, you are just too much.
