FYI, on yesterday’s date in 2007, I introduced our new fosters. One of them was Maryann, who later came to be named Stinkerbelle.
Also, on yesterday’s date in 2012, I introduced Cicero, who became Stompers!
And in 2013, I gave y’all the 411 on Stefan, and referred to him as “half-feral.” Uh huh. Yeah, SUCH a feral cat.

All 8 Fools – and Lucy’s back end. From left to right: Carlin (in the bowl), Skelton (looking up at the ceiling fan), Belushi, Roseanne (behind Belushi), Louis, Rickles, Shecky, and Gilda.
Guess what time it is!
Lucy and her Fools.
Rickles, Louis and Carlin, bonding in the basket.
Kittens on the cat tree in Fred’s room (with a huge picture of Tubby looking on).
Belushi, Gilda and Shecky. These kittens LOVE that cat tree, and can often be found piled up on it, sound asleep.
Roseanne has found a toy.
Carlin, showing Shecky who the boss is.
Rickles reflects upon how badly that window needs to be cleaned.
I feel very judged by you right now, Louis.

Video! Yesterday afternoon, I was settled down on Fred’s bed with my favorite pink and brown cat blanket over me. Louis was perched on my chest, purring and purring as I petted him. Suddenly, Lucy climbed into my lap.
“Awww!” I thought. “She wants to snuggle!”
Then she started calling and calling to her kittens. The next thing I knew, I was pinned under Lucy and all 8 kittens. They nursed for a few minutes, and then Lucy decided her location was not to her liking, so she struggled out from underneath her brood, walked about a foot away, and flopped down again. The kittens followed. Turn the volume up to get the maximum purring-kitten effect.
