Rum decides that the cub wouldn’t make a very good danglebase.

Sunshiney boys. (You can just barely see Reverb on the level below Rum.)

Reverb’s all “Do you mind, lady?”

This is what it looks from outside when Rocco’s sitting in Fred’s bedroom window.

Reverb in the cube, Rum trying to decide what kind of trouble he’s gonna make, and Natalie checking in.

“You talkin’ to me, lady?” Reverb wonders.

Rum and Reverb, tussling and playing. I love it when Rum arches his back and poofs his tail to make himself look bigger. (And Reverb looks very impressed, no? No!)

Your daily Rumdangle – now in a new location! (The cat tree in my office.)

🎉 Former foster Pippin (formerly Carmy), looking very adorable and dignified. (Thanks, Sharon!)

Rum’s all “Whatchoo want, lady?”
To answer the question so many have asked: No, I do not believe Rum and Reverb are a bonded pair. You see so many pictures of them together because they’ve only got each other to play with now, and so they play (and snuggle) with each other. They’re friends who get along well, but are not a bonded pair. Their play styles are pretty different: Reverb likes to play chase and occasionally have some very short-lived low-contact tussling. Rum considers playing to be a contact sport and likes to wrestle. They get along well, and it would be lovely to see them adopted together, but it won’t be a requirement.
