Andrea said: Oh my gosh, Art Vandelay’s right side is a gray cat with a tiny head!
Colehaus Cats said: Maybe it’s just us or maybe it’s because we love Art Vandelay the most but… the dark fur on Art’s right side shot looks like the outline of a kitten about to leap (the tail of the leaping kitten is his tail).

Kerry said: [Ken Adams has] a six-legged headless beastie on his left.
Kerry: Susie has a six-legged T-Rex down her left side
Andrea: Susie’s left side looks like someone tried picking her up with paint on their hand! Edit: Just saw the comment from Kerry, and Susie DOES have a T-rex!
Kerry: [Susie has] a beaver on her right.
Andrea: Chanandler Bong has matching spots on each side! And the cutest toes ever!
Did you notice that not only does Chanandler have matching spots on her sides, she’s also got matching spots on her toes – the outside of her paws, at least? I had never noticed that until I was going through my pictures for Wednesday’s post. I hadn’t noticed the T-rex or any of the other stuff either, to be honest. I think seeing them up close every day, I tend not to notice that sort of thing – thanks for pointing it out!

Has it been three years since we said goodbye to Spanky? I just wanted to cuddle that old man and hear him purr. Love that pic with Spot in the wingback chair.
What a spectacularly crappy time we’ve had these past three years as far as losing cats. I mean, Spanky was getting to be an old man and Miz Poo was getting up in years, but that didn’t make losing them any easier. Then to lose all the others we’ve lost, from Elwood on (though we lost Elwood before Spanky), I’ve told Fred more than once that I feel like Crooked Acres is under a dark cloud. I am hoping so very much that we’ve seen our last loss for at least a couple of years.

I knew it. Yoda’s real name is Ken Adams and he’s got a peeenk nosie.
I ADORE that picture.

What is the cord that is hanging from the curved scratchy thingy that Ken Adams is on?
warriorinside said: I have a curvy scratcher like it. The cord holds a toy that hangs underneath the part of the S that forms a tunnel with the floor. (Guess how long mine lasted.)
Yep, that’s what it is. They removed that toy in no time flat, and I have no idea where the toy has gone, or I’d reattach it. What I need to do is remove the cord, because the kittens REALLY like to chew on it, and I’d hate for one of them to swallow it.

Chanandler Bong and Art Vandelay have a snuggle.
Pretty Susie.
Don’t be fooled, he will mess you UP if you touch that belly.

What are the chances of you getting a pic of Stefan AND Archie on the railing at the same time?
I would have said that the chances were pretty close to zero, but a few weeks ago this happened:
That right there is Archie and Stefan, sleeping on Fred’s bed. And they did it all afternoon long. I have no idea what’s going on – but I can report that I have about 5 Feli-Way plug-ins scattered through the house at the moment, so perhaps that has something to do with it. It could also be that they’re spending more time outside now that the weather has turned milder, or maybe they’re just mellowing as they get older and more accustomed to each other. Who knows?!
