Sweet faces.
With all due respect to Comet and Talisker, Houdini’s my favorite of your kitties. Adorably asymmetrical!
One of my kitties is a calico and she is symmetrical too; maybe that’s how the genetics works. She has one black eyebrow and one orange; one black buttcheek and one orange, one black elbow and one orange, etc.
It’s like the cover of Meet The Beatles.
Beautiful kitties. I bet the pur real good too.
Wonderful Walt Whitman allusion. Plus, all hail the kittehs!
I love your kittehs! I have a bird right now…wish I could have a kitty too!
You are projecting your human perspective onto the cats. In the first photo the cats are behaving like cats. In the second photo the cats are behaving like cats. In both cases, they don’t care what you think.
Sure they’re acting like cats.
Who says cats aren’t naturally noble and dramatic and undignified and snuggly?
Cats not only can do all of those things (and more), they often are better at some of them than humans are.
