The gorgeous kitten you see above is the same one as this little fluffball.
He’s grown quite a bit, his fur has become sleek and dense black, and he just has the sweetest personality (but he’s a little devil too).
He’s been through several names. The first name he had was BlackasHell, but that didn’t stick, so I renamed him Shadow. But he wasn’t having that name either, and since I’ve been calling him House Panther for the past few weeks, that’s going to be his new, permanent name.
Here are two more pictures of Shadow (renamed from Blackashell, which just doesn’t roll off the tongue as easily). It’s Shadow not only due to his color, but also because he’s very attached to me and follows me around like a…you guessed it…shadow!
Judging by the size of his feet, he’s going to grow into a big boy!
Can you resist that face?
No, not my state of mind!
Blackashell is the name of my new kitten!
He is an adorable almost 7 week old black kitten, and I think he is going to have long hair. His fur is very fluffy, and though shy with other people, he took to me immediately. My other three cats seem to not mind him either.
I didn’t really want a 4th kitten (usually it’s a firm “no!” whenever anyone asks if I want a new kitten), but my son in law was telling me about him and something told me this kitten was special so I asked if I could see him.
He was named by my son in law’s nephew (my grand nephew?) who is just three. I thought the name was hilarious and seemed to fit him so well I decided to keep the name.
And when I saw Blackashell, I decided to keep him as well.
He’s sleeping at my feet as I write this.
This is an old video from 2007 showing two cats (they are both female, and both about ten years old at the time this video was made) having a “conversation.”
The cats are not just adorable, but their trilling, purring, and cooing noises and soft little vocalizations are so relaxing I could listen to them on endless loop.
Besides the relaxing effect, I also noticed my mood always improves dramatically after viewing this video (or other ones like it). It’s incredible how something so simple can improve your entire outlook.
I wonder what the cats were talking about. Whatever it was, it’s clear these kitties love each other.
If you want something a little longer that has the same relaxing and soothing effect, I recommend this beautiful video of a mom cat and her adorable, playful kittens.
I never posted about this, but last week our eleven month old kitten/almost cat Marley got hit by a car.
I wasn’t going to replace him, but my daughter was heartbroken, so we talked about it and decided to get a new kitten. The new kitty, who she named Pocket, is only about six weeks old (we wouldn’t have taken it so young, but the mother was ill and couldn’t take care of her kittens). He’s extremely playful and friendly and already gets along great with BabyCat (pictured with Pocket) and Sheldon, my tuxedo cat.
We are not sure if Pocket is a boy or girl yet, but I’m thinking it’s a boy (it’s hard to tell when they’re this young). I think this is the cutest picture ever.
