In case you missed it…
Tango and Sashay were adopted!
They went home to Sevierville, Tennessee, and are joining a family that includes other kitties to play with. They’re now Maverick and Carmelita (which I LOVE!)
Mambo and Flamenco are going for their spay/neuter on Thursday, and will be headed home on the 20th. I’m not sure exactly when ChaCha is going home, but it’ll be around the 20th as well, I believe.
Today’s post has the rest of the pictures that include Tango and Sashay before they went home.
I adore this picture so much – I just wish I’d been just a bit further out, so I could have caught Tango’s full expression.
Tango jumping while Mambo, ChaCha and Sashay keep watch. His spread toes crack me UP.
Sweet Sashay.
Tango jumps again – and ChaCha’s ready to SLAP that feather teaser out of the air if it gets anywhere near her.
Such a restful nap time.
Lap full o’ monkeys.
Mr. Innocent (Tango).
Sashay keeping an eye on me.
Tango with a complaint, and the girls just enjoying that heated blanket.
Sashay and Tango – I love the way his tail is curled at the end.
Those are some ridiculous whiskers, Tango.
The kittens checking out the Christmas stocking tunnel someone sent us.
And one last lined-up kitten picture. From left: Flamenco, Mambo, Tango and Sashay.
I got several comments about how Tango looked so much bigger than Sashay in their adoption picture. That’s because he is! The last time I weighed them – last Monday – he was just over 4 1/2 pounds (2.05 KG) pounds and she was just over 3 pounds (1.37 KG), so yeah – there’s quite a difference. It never stops her from jumping on him and kicking his butt, though.

Alice, up close and tired of my nonsense.

Posted on social media (Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/Tumblr/ Bluesky) this weekend.
When a kitten (in this case Mambo) walks around with a toy in his mouth, growling softly at all his siblings, it is THE CUTEST THING EVER.
I said “It’s not Thlurrrpsday, Sashay,” and she said “I do what I want, when I want, lady.” Ain’t THAT the truth.

Random silliness in the kitten room.
Tango says “Now that I’ve caught my tail, what do I do with it?” (I think it was more fun when it was juuust out of reach!)
YouTube link
What a RESTFUL nap time we are having!
Those screened walls have been in place for just over a year now, and Flamenco’s the first foster kitten who’s been interested in seeing how high she can climb. (She never gets much higher than this, because there’s a cross bar that she can’t quite reach around to go higher.) (That screen is pet proof screen, and it holds up very well to this nonsense.)

Slow motion kittens! The most interesting thing about slowing these videos down is the way, at regular speed, it looks like two kittens are colliding. But then you slow it down, and find out they barely even made contact. So cool!
Good night innernets. (From left: Tango, Sashay, Mambo and Flamenco)
Good morning, ya little slackers.
Hooray, hooray, Tango & Sashay were adopted today! They’re on their way home to Sevierville, TN where they’re joining a family that includes other kitty friends to play with. (They will not be keeping their names, but the adopters hadn’t settled on names for them yet.) Happy life, sweet babies! ❤
The birds are active today and ChaCha is pretty sure she’s responsible for keeping an eye on ALL of them.

Tango and Sashay were adopted and went home today, and the first thing I did after they left was to take Mambo’s collar off (since I no longer have two identical orange kittens that I need to tell apart!) He immediately claimed it as his new favorite toy, and spent the next two hours playing with it.
“Lady, give us the Churu and don’t be stingy.” Flamenco and Mambo aren’t sad about the fact that they get more Churu now that Tango and Sashay have been adopted.
Good night innernets. (Flamenco (left) and Mambo)
ChaCha pie! (My favorite!)
Flamenco’s here to assist me.

Tango (now Maverick) and Sashay (now Carmelita) were adopted yesterday (together) and went home to Sevierville, Tennessee. Here’s their “from “hello” to adoption” video!
Just a little note: I know that some of y’all don’t like it when adopters change a kitten’s name. All I can say is that it’s not going to be in any way confusing for these kittens because I NEVER called them by their names – they probably think their names are “turkey” or “muffin” or “WHOOOO WANTS A CHURUUUUU.”
It’s laundry day, and now that the laundry is put away, Mambo’s going to relax by kicking the heck out of that dryer ball.
YouTube link
Just a short clip of Mambo in slow motion, playing with his collar. That boy’s got the moves!
I have a lap full of Flamenco & Mambo, who require 1 million kisses each. (A foster mom’s job is never done.)
Look, look! It’s former fosters Maverick (formerly Tango) and Carmelita (Sashay), who went home yesterday. Mike reports: “As I guessed, Ezra missed having a playmate, and he and Maverick have been chasing each other. Carmelita hangs back a little at first but then eventually makes herself part of it too. I’d say it’s been a success here today. And these babies are good eaters!” That is WONDERFUL! (Thanks, Mike!)
Good night innernets. (Mambo & Flamenco)
