ATTENTION PLEASE:
Ashton S, please report to me ( mizrobyn (at) gmail.com ) so that I can thank you properly!
In like manner, if you have sent something off the wish list and have NOT heard from me, please email me – Amazon has gotten terrible about letting me know who’s sent something, and I don’t anyone to think we don’t appreciate it SO VERY MUCH! Y’all are just awesome.

Chanterelle was adopted and went home yesterday!
Chanterelle was our blink-and-you-missed-it foster for a few days two weeks ago. She was NOT pregnant, and I ended up swapping her for the Dumpling Gang. She stayed with another foster while she was spayed, and then yesterday she came back to us for a few hours. Her adopter came here to get her in the early afternoon, and off she went! (She went locally, about half an hour from me.)
She joins a 7 year old kitty named Jasper who needs a friend, and her name will likely become Charlotte.
I had her for six hours or so and took a zillion pictures, but hardly any of them came out. She’s GORGEOUS and photogenic, but she is SUCH a lap cat and wanted to constantly be on me, which makes it hard to take a decent picture. Maybe her new mom will have better luck!

Wonton knows it’s not Thlurrrpsday, but does he care? He does not. He’s a REBEL.
What a charming smile you have, Pierogi.
Sleepy little monkeys. (Wonton, Pierogi and Momos)
Pierogi’s flirting.
Peeping Momos.
Bao loves the cord to my hoodie.
Tasty!
Tortellini, keeping an eye on me. (Someone’s gotta!)
Momos has a sleepy.

This back corner of the back yard is Charlie’s favorite spot. We put that paving stone there and I am pleased that he actually uses it. (Now I’m wondering if I should put another one there for Magoo…)

Posted on social media (Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/Tumblr/ Bluesky/Threads) yesterday.
Khinkali, trying to figure me out. (I’m not that complicated, kid.)
Throw Back Thursday: when I posted the lined-up picture of the Dumpling Gang earlier this week, someone asked if 6 kittens is the most I’ve ever had lined up. Nope! I am almost positive that the most kittens I’ve had lined up were these 10 Vittles kittens (top), from 2020 – From left: Tater Tot (in the back), Hush Puppy, Onion Ring, Candy Apple, Fritter, Eclair, Pretzel, Funnel Cake (orange tabby in the back), Snowcone, and French Fry.
And on the bottom is what I’m pretty sure was my first really good lined-up shot – Les Chatons, in 2019. From left: Jacques, Madeline, Esmee, Amelie, Francois, Antoine. (Perhaps one week I’ll get ALL my lined-up foster pics in one place to share, but this is not that week.)

The kittens are running, racing and playing. As usual!
Tortellini says “Did you get a good picture of me in the Adirondack? Can I go play now?” Yes, and yes!
Little posers. Over there on the shelf (upper right) is Wonton. On the top level of the tree, from left are: Khinkali, Bao, Tortellini & Momos. And on the lower level is Pierogi.
Hooray, hooray! Chanterelle, who was with us for 5 days two weeks ago before she went to another foster (I traded her for the Dumpling Gang), has been adopted! She came back to me for a few hours yesterday before she headed home. I took a ton of pictures but I don’t think any of them came out because she is SUCH a lovebug and just wanted to be in my lap being petted. She’ll have a kitty companion – Jasper – who needs a friend, and she was instantly ALL OVER her new mom. Happy life, sweet girl!
Good night innernets. (Momos (left) and Pierogi)
