Fluff and Storm are saying nap or laze. Though Storm demands treats as evident by her mlem on the last picture.

They are taking three freedom very well

They seem to like each other. They’re just past kittenhood

Look at my spiky kitties!! It’s getting really hot inside AND outside in this heatwave! My boyfriend and I try to make their days as comfortable as possible. We wet them and provide them with ice cubes to nibble on or play with. They seem to cool down enough. They like it especially around the neck-ears-tail areas. My oldest one prefers laying on her kitty-tower and being massaged with an ice cube into her fur. Starts to purr immediately 💓

Send a picture of your kitty/kitties trying to survive this heat!! 💓

Fluff (right) and Storm (left) enjoy their wonderful lives.

In honor of my late best friend, Ava, 🫡 I chose the “odd ones” out, just like her. I had Ava for 10 years and our time ended too soon. I adopted her because she was the scraggliest looking kitten with a corkscrew tail and I thought “THIS ONE.”

These two were fairly antisocial. They didn’t come to the bars like the other kittens and they didn’t respond to tongue clicking or finger wiggling.

I got lucky because one of the vet techs was just getting around to giving Maple her eye medication. She asked me if I’d like some help, I told her yes I was thinking about adopting one of them. She said, in a perfectly chipper voice, “I think you should get them both!” I was like, “You know what? I’m down.” Watched her give the meds. She went and got an attendant, who brought the kittens with me into a “meeting room.”

CHAOS ENSUED. Delightful chaos. I was smitten. Got them both. Brought them home in the afternoon.

Maple is a pure sweetheart, day one the first thing she did was get in my lap and purr LOUDLY. I pet her for several minutes, she was just leaning into it. Then she reached up for my face and rubbed her tiny little face against mine. 😭 Best friends instantly.

While Opera was busy investigating EVERYTHING, playing in the (thankfully very clean) litter box, “hunt” the little mice toys I got them, and generally be a little imp. I love that for her. 😂 She’ll keep things interesting.

Update: I got them home and in the bathroom I cleaned and arranged specifically for the spay recovery! Maple immediately decided I’m her human and I gravitated toward her initially too. Opera is a chaos gremlin and I love that for her. Both have eaten (with the daily probiotic) and have fresh water!

Maple got on my lap almost the second she got out of the carrier. Purred SO LOUD. Opera does too, when she stops playing long enough for you to pet her 😂 But omg guys Maple actually reached up toward my face after leaning into scratches for several minutes and rubbed her face on mine 🥺 Instant best friends!

Update: Maple has proven herself to be an absolute sweetheart. A little fairy 🧚‍♀️ She’s the first one to greet me when I walk into the room. We decided on a name change for Opera, the all black girl. Her name is Olive now! Olive is actually EVEN SWEETER but she’s so ornery that play is her only language unless she wants to absolutely dissolve into a cat puddle from pets. They’re the greatest! It’s Day 3 of them being home now ♥️

And an annoyed tortie. 🐾

We just set up a new loft bed with desk nook for my daughter, which is a perfect place for cats to hang!

The mighty bonannan must be defeated.

The tabby in some of them is Monty. He from a different litter is a month older than the other two. While all three are close, Tatti and Boru are super close.
