He's a CAT!


Imrlgoddess

1,415 views

This little muffin isn't a jelly bean anymore!  He's a kibble crunching, toy killing, toe attacking, fluff machine!  Little Hooman bathed him yesterday, she said he did great, basically purred the  whole time and didn't try to evacuate when she grabbed the stinky Princess and put her in the bathtub afterward.  He eats, he plays, he crashes.  He eats, he plays, he crashes.  Heeatsheplayshecrashes.  No ankle is safe anymore.  

Pictures are hard to come by due to excessive running, jumping, and biting....so one serene pic and the latest Thor video!

Awww look at him, he is getting so big and catlike.

 

Im glad he was good when you bathed him. When I bathed my kittens, Amber ran straight up my arm the second her paw touched the water, and then clung onto my head with her claws.

What a little cutie!  And I love how the big kitty is just too dignified to participate.

I know I've said this before - but he is just adorable!

You should be so proud of yourself. :)

@ILoveJellybeans the last two small kitties we had tried to demolish anyone who dared plunge them into the wet stuff. One house Little Hooman & I lived in had the sliding door on the bathtub. She'd put the bathing suit on, grab the cat and shut she & the kitty in there. There was a bath one way or the other! :my_biggrin:

@catlady Big TeX rules these here parts. He'll lay down & spat with the baby, but don't make him get up! He's the grouchy old man/ peace keeper.

@Palimpsest I'm so grateful he is healthy. Every time I walk out to feed the dogs I give the babies a pause or a hello. It's been a rough year & he's been a wonderful little bright black spot. :my_smile:

I can't believe he's the same little kitty! He's such a big boy already!! All that fluffy kitten energy! Happy sigh. What a good feeling before bed.

He's so soft!  His fur has thickened up and he's got this soft plush fuzz all over his little body, not too long, not too short.

his little tail is starting to look better. He looks so soft and cuddly...but I can also see he's a little terror. Do your hands look like hamburger yet?

@feministxtian He's definitely got the rawr kitty thing down pat!  He chases the older cats when they don't want to play with him and climbs us when we aren't paying attention.  We all have some battle scars :my_biggrin:  The truly funny thing is when you see a 12 lb mouser run full throttle from the room because hissing at him didn't deter the "swat swat swat".  They run, he kitten gallops behind them.  He's maybe 2 lbs now?  I need to get a picture of Texi holding his head down.  The baby bows up to him, so the response is either bat the crap out of him or simply put a giant paw on his head and smoosh him into the carpet.  It's utterly hilarious.  But man when he's sweet....he's sweet.  He's all purrs and kitten pats.

My dynamic duo were/are the same way They are still attention hogs. They will studiously ignore us until we find something else to do besides watching TV. I'm about to go study...there will be at least one cat on the table next to me, occasionally swatting my hand as I use the mouse. 

When they were babies, my hands and arms looked like hamburger. They spent most of their time laying on me, playing with me, etc. They'd climb up on me when I came home from work. Now they don't climb up but they will tell me about their day when I get home. Luke bitches that Leia hid from him (behind the TV) and Leia will bitch that Luke wouldn't leave her alone.

I love all these Thor updates! I've never had a kitten, but I'm on my second hard-sell adopted cat. The first was old and sick, and not expected to live a year (she lived 6 wonderful years and I still miss her - she died in my arms).

The second was a rage-filled monster of a cat, who didn't have much fur, was severely underweight, completely red and raw from flea bite allergy, and just didn't understand that biting is not a good way to get yourself a Forever Home. Unless, of course, Mr and Mrs Jellybean are in town. Cocoa bit both of us, and we looked at each other and agreed that this was the one for us. 

Three years on, she is now plump and long-haired (who knew?!) and I probably over feed her because I know where she's been and a little of her history, and because I'm a bit of a sucker for the 'There's no food in my bowl' song! She did a lot of biting and scratching and mauling initially, and Mr J and I both looked like we were seriously self-harming for quite a long time (about a year!), but is now calm-ish and snuggly, though still a sucker for twitching knitting yarn - must defend the humans from the dangerous yarn-weevils!

 

ETA Thor's little white tummy *squee* and your smallhooman (sorry, I know that isn't the right name) is so right that they're training us, and not the other way round!

I was just updating Mr. P on your wonderful job with Thor, @Imrlgoddess.  I played your "Thorsday" video where tiny Thor meows.

Miss W., who celebrates her 2 week anniversary of being home today, rushed over to the laptop - ears at happy and playful position.  She then went under the table searching for the kitty noise.  Still happy and no aggressive ears or tail.  Playful.

I already know that Little Guy is very cat friendly.  He thinks cats are cool but need to be treated with respect.  Miss W. may be cat workable too - but more testing is required.  I've always loved kitties.  I still never ask for "cat workable" dogs when I go to adopt because they are in very high demand.

I've had greys who ask for the ketchup at the very thought of a cat.

Pondering testing Miss W. with cats more because maybe ... but where would I put the litter box?

Why, in the dog's food dish, of course!

 

Sorry.  Ew.  Ew.  Sorry.

You should apologize.  That is gross. Disgusting. Vile.

And VERY realistic!  :laughing-jumpingpurple:

I think EVERYONE should have kittehs. Mr. Xtian, who wasn't much of a cat person now watches and chuckles at every Mighty Thor video. I posted another pic of uptight Luke elsewhere...he needs to learn to relax.

      I think she unenthusiastically said yes to the first man Scotty Brown (not/never father of the year) convinced/ coerced to take her and the 6 step kids.

      Hope she is happy, but intuition tells me no, and that she believes the unhappiness is normal married life.

      Really really really hope she wasn't "convicted" to have more children.

      Childless semi-old catlady here. I don't hate kids. I hate parents who don't bother to teach their kids (age apropriate, of course) about boundaries. I'm quite happy to let kids be kids. But if they start to actively pester me and intrude on me (like trying to drink from MY lemonade in a Café, or wiping their chocolate covered fingers on my backpack during train rides...) then I will speak up and tell them to stop, and I'm fully aware that to the innocent bystander I might come across as 'hating' kids, especially since I might be a bit worked up at that point. I'm not blaming the kids, they don't know better. I'm blaming those parents who shy away from putting a brake on their kids' (sometimes) too exuberant behaviour. 

      What’s funny is I often say this about dogs! 🤣🤣🤣 Every time I find myself hating a dog, I realize I just hate how horrible the owner is. It’s always someone who lets their dog get away with the most horrific behavior at the expense of other people.

      I have a bunch of kids and as much as I love them they also drive me nuts.  They can be loud and messy.  The younger ones are still figuring out where their personal space ends and other people's (mostly mine!) begins.  But I can't ever imagine them doing something like drinking someone else's lemonade.  And if they ever took leave of their senses long enough to try, I would deal with it ASAP and also buy you another lemonade.

      My kids are my responsibility and if they act up in public it's my job to correct them or take them somewhere else so they aren't disturbing others.  

      But I have also occasionally come across people who do seem to resent children being present in public at all.  Don't think they should be brought to restaurants, etc.  I couldn't say what percentage of the childfree population feels that way, but people like that do exist.  And I think it's a shame because (a) how do you teach kids to behave in places like restaurants if you don't take them to practice, and (b) if I've put in the work to teach my kids how to behave in various places and they are not being disruptive, they really do have just as much right to be there as any other segment of the population.

      It makes me wonder: would these modesty-fundies be okay with swimwear on girls-only trips?

      In this case it is filmed and published so the same standards as public places would apply but what if it was a private moment between friends and family?

      For instance, Muslim women do not dress with the same modesty standards in the private of their household.

      There is also a toy rabbit with a pink ribbon in the picture.

      Either they use it to honor Isla or it’s an announcement for a girl. 

      My guess is to honor Isla, since she'd be a few months old now if she made it, but could be both.
