There’s just something about a tuxie, isn’t there? The crisp white against the shiny black fur is just so gorgeous.

Smitty, so dignified. (I haven’t been able to catch it on video, but Smitty’s an air kneader. He was rolling around purring and kneading the air.)

“You talkin’ to ME?” inquires Khal.

Magoo’s lying in wait for his little brothers.

Charlie’s all “JUST LOOKIN’ FOR A GOOD PLACE TO TAKE A NAP, LADY. YOU CAN STOP TAKING MY PICTURE NOW.”

Rocco menacing the neighborhood from my front walkway. Looks menacing, doesn’t he?

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

Magoo’s all “Mom. Seriously. That’s MY box!” and Smitty’s all “No, I think you’re wrong. Pretty sure it’s mine!” (There is another box of paper five feet away, but clearly it’s not the GOOD box.)

Charlie keeps an eye on his new brothers from the landing. He hasn’t formed an opinion about them yet, but I’m sure he’ll love them….Eventually!

While we are foster-free for the next few weeks, how about a new daily feature I’ll call ⏪ THE DAILY REWIND wherein I share an old picture or video or whatever strikes my fancy? Sound good? Good! (And if you have a request, feel free to leave it in the comments.)
This blog post is from 2006, written from the perspective of (permanent resident) Mister Boogers to the readers who kept insisting we keep our first bottle baby kitten, Maddy.
Dear Peoples of the internet Readers:
I hates you, this is true. I hates you because you does never send me the tasty treats or the fuzzy toys or the warm and snuggly beds (except for The Nance and The Rick, who are excused from the hatin’.).
I hates the rest of yous because you is always all “Oooh, look at the cute kitten! Look at how cute, the kitten! Look how sweet and cute the kitten! You should keep the kitten!” NO WE SHOULD NOT KEEPS THE KITTEN! The stinkin’ kitten is not so cute! Especially when the stinkin’ kitten jabs you in the nostrils with her sharp little claws and you spends an hour sneezing while The Momma and The Daddy laugh at your sneezin’ face!
I hates you because you is all “Oh, the kitten! The kitten! Blah the kitten!” and you is never “The Booger! What a fine and magnificent, powerful creature is The Booger! The Booger is the most beautiful animal in the world!” Maybe you thinks The Booger knows this, which The Booger DOES, but despite his resemblance to a God, The Booger is only feline. The Booger needs to hear it sometimes!
So stop asking why, you stinkin’ peoples. I hates you and you and YOU.
xoxo,
Monsieur Boogair

Smitty has some FABULOUS ear floof, doesn’t he?

Good night innernets. (Pete & Smitty)
