It’s so weird that these cats are ours, but we don’t have them in our home yet. We only spent about an hour and a half with them on our adoption visit — but we miss them already. Last night I was hearing creaking noises (old building), and I kept thinking it was a cat pattering down the hall.
So until we can take them home, I’m consoling myself with posting pictures to my blog. Here is Houdini in super-closeup. She really is a beauty, isn’t she? And she looks like she has such hidden depths. A very philosophical cat, this one. I’m sure she’ll solve the problem of consciousness in our lifetime.
KITTEH!
Hey, Greta, you haven’t mentioned your latest AlterNet column yet.
Just be careful lest what you hear are the rats in the walls…
Damn, now you made me miss my kitty, who died a few years ago 🙁
What is it about cats? They’re so clearly self-absorbed, yet you can’t help but loving them.
There is an area above Houdini’s left eye that looks like a cat sitting with its back to us (with a black curved stripe) but looking to the right, with a white face but black head (and white “bib”). Meta-cat!
Kitteh!
Yay for adopting kittens! And congrats!
I love tortoise shell coloured cats. They are all gorgeous.
Philosophy Kitteh says I Think Therefore I Mrow.
She’s such an adorable representation of x-linked color genetics, Jen could so totally use her as an example in her introductory genetics lecture.
Just below Clemmie’s image of a cat spurning us is a kitteh fractal of Houdini’s face, in exactly the same pose as the overall Houdini picture– i.e., looking down and to the left.
Pareidolia!
Good luck with your new kittehs!
Could you and Ingrid clone yourself so we can adopt out more kittehs to you? YOu’re the dream parents for us foster parents…
Yay for adopting cats!!
And, does your pretty girl have that “tortitude?” 😉
[…] In summation, my cat out-geeks your cats. What now, Pixel? What now, Houdini? […]
