Kitty cat: *gushing* “No, you shouldn’t have!”

3 zoid 03.22.07 at 3:24 pm

Looks like he/she is trying to stifle a snicker

4 Rachel 03.22.07 at 3:31 pm

Munch munch munch… I bet she’s making that snorgling sound cats do when they have a face-full of paw pads. :)

5 Jorden 03.22.07 at 3:35 pm

I will be laughing ALL DAY! The best!

6 Theo 03.22.07 at 3:36 pm

Oh this is TOTALLY a “LOLcat”. Captions! We need CAPTIONS!!!

I don’t know – it looks like the kitty is stifling a yawn. Cute!

8 Kelley 03.22.07 at 3:42 pm

Mmm…cute,kissable, pink paw pads!

9 emily 03.22.07 at 3:46 pm

i’ve never commented before but this is wonderful. it made me make a gutteral “gawg” sort of noise that i have never made before… fantastic!

10 Mello 03.22.07 at 3:50 pm

eeeeyayyyy!! so soft and fluffy and tasty looking!!!

11 Tessa 03.22.07 at 3:50 pm

Yes, stifling a yawn…or a giggle.

12 Cheryl Bailey 03.22.07 at 3:53 pm

“OOPS!, Did I say that?”

13 Suzanne 03.22.07 at 3:53 pm

Theo your caption is too funny.

An alternate:

“I can’t believe she wore THAT on the red carpet!”

14 Andrea|Nash 03.22.07 at 3:53 pm

teho – I had one but yours is so much better I didn’t try.

But, then, evryone knows you’re the Big Cat on this site.

15 Andrea|Nash 03.22.07 at 3:55 pm

um – caption, thatis

16 Chris B. 03.22.07 at 3:56 pm

This kitty looks more like she is trying not to laugh at something. Or embarrassed about something???? Way too cute!!!!!!

17 MaggieBelle 03.22.07 at 4:01 pm

This cat thinks you look funny.

I do too.

18 Rachel 03.22.07 at 4:15 pm

Check out the teeny-tiny tufts o’fur between the kittytoes!

19 Persephone 03.22.07 at 4:18 pm

Those are perhaps the largest muzzlepuffs I have ever seen!

And Theo, you rock as always.

20 Theo 03.22.07 at 4:18 pm

Andrea N — duplication fixed, and thanks. But go ahead & throw in your own ideas.

21 ShelleyTambo 03.22.07 at 4:19 pm

Ha! As soon as my cat finishes cleaning her paw pads, I just can’t resist snorgling them all (nawming, I suppose). She just gives me a very irritated (very feline) looks and starts the whole process over again. It’s a good way to keep her occupied for hours if I need some kitty-free time.

22 Theo 03.22.07 at 4:21 pm

“URP”
“scuse me”

23 popkitten 03.22.07 at 4:22 pm

Awww, awesome “caught in the act” shot!! lol! I love it when my cat does the whole paw in the face thing like that :)

24 jaypo 03.22.07 at 4:25 pm

JOURNAL ENTRY: MARCH 22

Three more men were eaten today, along with half the native guides. With provisions and ammunition almost gone, I fear we may never return from The Valley of the Enormous Kitties…

27 nermalkitty 03.22.07 at 4:38 pm

i think she was teaching her children manners. they were eating supper when mama suddenly belched. outloud. she was horrified; threw her paw over her mouth and said, properly chagrined: “excuse me please!” (remember the pretty mother cat from the aristocats?)

28 One Eyed Daruma 03.22.07 at 4:38 pm

Quick, outta my way, musta had some tainted catnip…which way to the porcelain pot? (or, more than likely, the most visible and most-likely-to-step-on-in-stocking-feet spot on the carpet…)

29 Zorbs 03.22.07 at 4:40 pm

31 kellyfaerie 03.22.07 at 4:45 pm

Heh yeah the I has a flavor. I vote for that one. lolcats is the best.

32 NebraskaErin 03.22.07 at 4:45 pm

Why is kitty laughing at me?? Do I have something in my teeth? Or hanging out of my nose?

33 The Honourable Gladys Anstruther 03.22.07 at 4:46 pm

Kitteh,
Blench, If they give me sprout and spam flavour agin, I’m outtah hear.

34 anner 03.22.07 at 4:49 pm

in cat language, this is probably some obscene gesture about yo’ mama.

35 Pheas 03.22.07 at 4:54 pm

Excuse me. I had fish for lunch.

36 marsheeeee 03.22.07 at 4:57 pm

This is a warning to all of you out there: Don’t read Teho’s caption to this picture while drinking anything. It’s painful when it snorts out your nose. Good one!

37 carmen 03.22.07 at 4:57 pm

this paw is nummies..

MY LORD! WHO PUT HOT SPICEES IN MY FOOD??

40 ThreeCatNight 03.22.07 at 5:12 pm

Kitteh looks like she’s saying, “Oh, beg pardon! But these little jellypads are quite the treat!”

41 Andrea|Nash 03.22.07 at 5:12 pm

Well…scuffles toe in dust…OK…

“Oh, Mr DrNo-san, you ah sooor lomantic. hehehe!”

42 Theo 03.22.07 at 5:21 pm

OK, this is a first crack at a six-caption compo…

43 SilvorMoon 03.22.07 at 5:22 pm

I love this cat! He looks so soft and smooshy, like a big marshmallow.

44 Zombie 03.22.07 at 5:35 pm

KITTEH!

45 Michelle 03.22.07 at 5:39 pm

“URP”
“scuse me”

I was thinking more like:

“Oops.
I farted”

Close though.

46 Michelle 03.22.07 at 5:41 pm

Ha! Teho is the awsum. Good jorb!

47 suntio 03.22.07 at 5:56 pm

EMILY, THE CAT MAY HAVE AN INFECTION IN ITS PAW!!!!!! Take it to a vet, please.

“I have juicy gossip, the BEST gossip, and I was pinky-paw sworn to not tell anyone. I promised not to tell. Oh, this is a GOOD one! But, I can’t tell you. I won’t tell you no matter what. LOL LOL LOL Oh, lordee.”

49 Julee 03.22.07 at 6:01 pm

What a CUTE leettle pink nosie!! I love the almost-closed eye. Serious cuteness here.

50 A thinker 03.22.07 at 6:02 pm

Oh CUTE!

Rarely has a CO pic evoked such a visceral reaction in me (pardon me for going all vocabulary there). Magnificent!

51 anahi 03.22.07 at 6:14 pm

this sooooooooooooo adorable !!!!!!!

52 Maggie 03.22.07 at 6:15 pm

I love how the kitteh looks like hes laughing

53 Juniper Jupiter 03.22.07 at 6:16 pm

Wow, you just need to photoshop a few yellow feathers and we’ll have a Sylvester kitty cat moment! Too cute!

54 OED 03.22.07 at 6:23 pm

Hey suntio…cats do this all the time – no need to go all scary-caps on Emily – I’m sure she’s up on the general health of her precious kitty.

55 Angela P. 03.22.07 at 6:24 pm

It kind of looks like another kitty is pinching her little kitty cheeks and saying, “Oh aren’t you just so cute?!? You’ve grown up so much! The last time I saw you, you were just *this* big.”

(“He’s gonna pinch my cheek. I hate it when he does that!”)

56 Amanda 03.22.07 at 6:24 pm

hahahah when I saw this, all I could think of was “Ew, I threw up in my mouth a little.”

57 Lacey's Garden 03.22.07 at 6:42 pm

I love this cat. Kinda reminds me of my beloved Jazz except my cat had two black dots on her nose… I want to snuggle with this baby.. -sigh- Kitty snuggle goodness…

this kitteh is flossing.

64 Holly 03.22.07 at 7:05 pm

Want some toast with that toe jam, kitteh?

I love lil cat feetsies..

I do the same thing, Shelley Tambo. Disgruntled kitty faces are so cute!

65 Teri 03.22.07 at 7:15 pm

Sunito…that’s how a cat cleans it’s back paws. Often accompanied by the delightful sounds of plucking their claws with their teeth and some slurping as they nibble/lick it clean.

At 3 am.

On the bed.

On the pillow.

By your head.

(and I sooooo want to kiss that wee pink nose!)

66 Daisycat 03.22.07 at 7:27 pm

anyone else notice the multicolored ears goin on back there?? Is one dipped in chocolate??? Perfect.

67 DKN 03.22.07 at 7:30 pm

Suntio, please tell me you are imitating a ’nuff.

68 lurkertype 03.22.07 at 7:30 pm

slurp slurp slurp slurp.

Also, Teho’s captions rawk. They need to be spread amongst users of LOLcats everywhere.

69 DKN 03.22.07 at 7:33 pm

“Mmmm….yaise….most deeleeshious mousie EVAR.”

70 Theresa 03.22.07 at 7:47 pm

See her leetle feet!
See her leetle rosy-nosy,
Isn’t the keety sweet?”

72 Robbie 03.22.07 at 7:59 pm

Forget those feet, I want to ‘naw on that pink nose!

73 oberon 03.22.07 at 8:10 pm

The Cute! *__*

I think it looks much more like the kitteh is squelching a giggle than being embarrassed…

I think it’s the way the light catches the muzzlepuff. o_O

74 Alice Shortcake 03.22.07 at 8:18 pm

I suspect this is the feline equivalent of tittering behind one’s fan.

75 misscrisp 03.22.07 at 8:20 pm

So little time…so much cute!
Can only share my own private paw-splosion (Teho liked this one):

78 Golden 03.22.07 at 8:35 pm

Once again, CO has done it. Just when I think things can’t possibly get any CUTER.. it happens.. This is by far one of my mostest favoritestest posts EVAR. The paw, the nose, the squishy eyes, the moist noisicle, and my fav caption.. “I has a flavor”… Finally, something so damn cute we can taste it.
Thank you CO.. Thank you.

79 DKN 03.22.07 at 8:44 pm

Misscrisp your kitteh rocks! What great pics! I heart Russian Blues! She(?) has such puurrrrfect beans on her feets.

80 kellyfaerie 03.22.07 at 8:56 pm

Teho, I luff teh cat-ptions! had to repost in my LJ.

In addition to I has a flavor, I also like “oops! teehee!”

84 skippy 03.22.07 at 9:52 pm

that is the kleenest white kitty i have ever seen! she must spend a lot of time washing. i should invite her over to give my kitties some lessons.

85 Redzilla 03.22.07 at 9:57 pm

Cheryl was close, but it’s more of a:

“GASP! Did I say that out loud?” Another kitten victim of Tourette’s.

86 SeaBreeze 03.22.07 at 10:00 pm

misscrisp, your photos are gorgeous – excellent resolution and contrast! Beautiful cat too!
Teri – I’m glad I’m not the only one awakened in the wee hours by a cat picking her toes beside my head.
Meg/Theo – I want a C.O.X.C.U. of that little circle ’round the paw & squinty eyes, encompassing that crinkled-up muzzlepuff. Please and thank you.

94 Brak_Silverbone 03.23.07 at 12:12 am

*beeps the oh-so-pink nose*

95 Cathryn Bauer 03.23.07 at 12:35 am

I LOVE to see cats that are obviously so well-fed, well-cared for, and so deeply into being cats.

96 Layla42 03.23.07 at 12:53 am

Teri–Us too. We have 3 Kittens of Doom, who will periodically gnaw on their tosies…on a pillow, right by a head, verrry verrry early in the morning.

I love that sound kitties make as they nyawm on their paws..the purr purr, and then that slight *snerk*. Great stuff.

And here I thought I was the only one with a cat bizzare enough to clean his toesies on the pillow in the wee sma’s! I’m not alone! YAY!

100 musicchick2 03.23.07 at 1:44 am

Can’t you just hear the little sucky noises?? Adorable pic!

101 Christy 03.23.07 at 1:47 am

Hmm. Should this photo also be in “I shall leeck you”, or does it not count when the critter is licking itself?

102 Emily C. 03.23.07 at 1:49 am

Aww… I’m glad you guys like so much! I know… so precious and a great picker-upper – actually went ‘eeee’ when I saw it… although it wasn’t mentioned that I found this (and several other great ones) on an anon. photo journal. But I wish he were mine…. I -do- has a flavor!

103 Azaria 03.23.07 at 1:50 am

Am I the only one who sees how the muzzlepuff gets squished by the nyahming?

107 pyrit 03.23.07 at 3:16 am

Waaaiiit a second.
Why is the little extra-thumb-toe-dewclaw on that side? It should be on the other side.
Is this another cat’s paw???
“MMM! I prms I wnt tll! I cnt brth!”

108 Theo 03.23.07 at 3:23 am

Nah Pyrit, it’s her right front paw. It’s just bent around goofy for better access.

109 pyrit 03.23.07 at 3:26 am

“Are ya sure?” j/k

110 Stephanie S. 03.23.07 at 3:28 am

111 Raegan 03.23.07 at 3:47 am

Its all about the squishiness of the muzzlepuff.

I have sensitve nerves in my front paws, you humans and I must keep all my toese clean so that I don’t do any three legged dancing if don’t mind. I do not like being laughed at. Now go away and I’ll fininsh the other toes and pads.

117 pny 03.23.07 at 11:36 am

Has anyone noticed that white fur is much softer than fur with color? It is the softest, silkiest fur on any cat!

118 Mike 03.23.07 at 1:07 pm

Very cute… when I was growing up, I had two Siamese cats. One would suck on the paw pad of the other cat while they were curled up together.

128 blair 03.23.07 at 2:11 pm

not to be indelicate, but i think she looks like she needs to push away from the li’l friskies a bit more often

p.s. one o’t flame rods has gone ’skew at treadle

129 The Honourable Gladys Anstruther 03.23.07 at 2:27 pm

NOBODY expects the lambish Inquisition! Our cheif weapon is surprise…surprise and fear…fear and suprise….Our two weapons are fear and surprise…and ruthless efficiency….our three weapons are fear, surprise and ruthles efficiency…and an almost fanatical devotion to the meat marketing board.

130 ShelleyTambo 03.23.07 at 2:31 pm

oaklandcat, yes, sometimes I NEED kitty-free time (not kitty free-time, aka free time for kitty). If I don’t find a way to occupy her, she will, on occasion, decide to be fungus. This has resulted in my being trapped on the toilet for 20 minutes, falling out of bed, watching hours of soap operas I didn’t want to see, not finishing projects on time, etc.

131 Tony James 03.23.07 at 2:35 pm

The Meat Marketing Board?! Good lord, there’s a blast from the past – does it still exist? I thought they did away with it along with the Min of Ag and toothpaste tubes made from lead (yes, kids, once upon a time that’s what they were made from, back in the good old days when you could drink liquor from an open container while driving your Corvair at any speed you damn’ well chose, with no seatbelt on, a tank full of leaded gasoline that cost a nickel a boatload, and when no-one would have dared suggest that a diet high in red meat, martinis, and Malboros might possibly not be entirely healthy…sighs wistfully).

Tj.
That’s if you was rich. We was so poor we lived int shoe box int gutter and ate gravel…if we was lucky.

134 ShelleyTambo 03.23.07 at 3:03 pm

All right, Honourable GA, lets nip this in the bud right now. I had to get up in the morning at ten o’clock at night, half an hour before I went to bed, eat a lump of cold poison, work twenty-nine hours a day down mill, and pay mill owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our Dad would kill us, and dance about on our graves singing “Hallelujah.”

135 Tony James 03.23.07 at 3:05 pm

…and if you tell that to the youth of today they won’t believe you.

136 ShelleyTambo 03.23.07 at 3:07 pm

They won’t!

137 The Honourable Gladys Anstruther 03.23.07 at 3:15 pm

Shelley&TJ.
If the above is from a far distant memory. Would I be given to understand, that you are both not in the first bloom of youth?

138 pyrit 03.23.07 at 3:20 pm

Ahh, yes, who would ha’ thought thirty years ago we’d all be sitting here drinking Chateau de Chassilier wine?

139 ShelleyTambo 03.23.07 at 3:21 pm

Oh aye, GA, who’d have thought thirty year ago we’d all be sittin’ here drinking Château de Chasselas, eh?

140 ShelleyTambo 03.23.07 at 3:23 pm

But really, factoring in thirty years ago would make it better: Right. Before I was born, I had to get up in the morning at ten o’clock at night, half an hour before I went to bed, eat a lump of cold poison, work twenty-nine hours a day down mill, and pay mill owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our Dad would kill us, and dance about on our graves singing “Hallelujah.”

… one fine day in the middle of the night ….
*grins* And, going to school, it was uphill in both directions for ten miles, through snow ten feet deep – with no skies?
That sounds familiar…. Ooh! Kitty!

143 pyrit 03.23.07 at 3:41 pm

And when we spoke we had to be sayin’ everything twice’t.
And eyup, there’s the fine Dr. ‘erriot now. And the reet foin Mrs. Pumphreys and Tricki Woo.

144 Theo 03.23.07 at 3:43 pm

Oh dear. Tricki Woo has gone from cracker-dog straight to flop-bot in ten seconds flat.

(To be honest, I’m not actually a fan. But I know my roots.)

MMMMM….. Tastes like Chicken!

146 Tony James 03.23.07 at 4:04 pm

Thorne – “no skies”?
Ee bah goom, la’, tha’ wu lucky to be allowed to go to school. I were out harvestin’ an’ reapin’ before I were out of short trousis, and on the rare occasions when I were allowed to go to schoolin’ it were 10 miles oop’ill in both directions, through snow 10 feet deep, no shoes (we were poor, you see), a hair shirt, and a sack of coal on me back fer t’classroom stove.
No skies…bloody ‘ell, we’d ‘ave been lucky to know what the sky was when I were a la’.

147 Theresa 03.23.07 at 4:16 pm

Well. I trow down with a Blackadder reference, and nobody picks it up. But someone just nudges the MPFC button, and we’re off to the races. Well I can play that game too.

Good! good? What do you know about it? What do you know about getting up at five o’clock in t’morning to fly to Paris… back at the Old Vic for drinks at twelve, sweating the day through press interviews, television interviews and getting back here at ten to wrestle with the problem of a homosexual nymphomaniac drug-addict involved in the ritual murder of a well known Scottish footballer. That’s a full working day, lad, and don’t you forget it!

148 jess e. 03.23.07 at 4:29 pm

What in the bleep are you all talking about? Some British in-joke?
Just a wild stab in the dark, which is incidentally what you’ll be getting if you don’t start talking QTE!!!
heehee, I wanna play too…

149 Tony James 03.23.07 at 4:29 pm

Sorry, Theresa – I hadn’t expected to find the Goblin Song on t’Overload…

150 pyrit 03.23.07 at 4:30 pm

Ah Blackadder. I admit, I do think Rowan Atkinson is so good-looking as Balckadder. Thickie, Mr. Thickie thickie.

151 pyrit 03.23.07 at 4:31 pm

TJ – NOBODY expects the Goblin Songish Inquisition!
(heh, gotcha back.)

152 Theresa 03.23.07 at 4:32 pm

Just for the record, I’m from Brooklyn. ;)

153 ShelleyTambo 03.23.07 at 4:53 pm

Sorry, Theresa, my Black Adder education has been sadly spotty. My brother tried to get me into it when I was 10, but I thought it was some boring history thing. I’ve tried to get into it since, but the channels around here (Philly) have been remarkably uncooperative in airing it (and I’m too cheap/lazy to buy/rent it).

154 pyrit 03.23.07 at 5:13 pm

But ShelleyT – When you were a lass o’ ten year you were workin’ 29 hour a day. Yer Da’ was so poor his tv only had 2 channels, on & off.

155 Mary 03.23.07 at 5:45 pm

How many times did I look at this kitteh before just now realizing that’s his/her BACK foot she’s nawming on ??

156 Noelle 03.23.07 at 5:47 pm

I always wondered what would happen to the comments if no new QTE was posted for about 12 hours…

157 Angela P. 03.23.07 at 5:50 pm

Bob (= Kate): What think you, my lord, of… love?
Edmund: You mean rumpy pumpy?

158 Theo 03.23.07 at 5:55 pm

Happens all the time, Noelle.
Global jitters.

159 Teri 03.23.07 at 5:57 pm

Jesse…they’re taking a few different skits from Monty Python’s Flying Circus (The Spanish Inquisition and the one that I can’t remember the name but where 4 guys sat around and tried to outdo each other in how rough their young life was) and running with the themes.

160 Subhangi 03.23.07 at 6:14 pm

Noelle – If no Qte is posted every 12 hours, I usually get into my oversized fake fur pink raccoon shoes, play Rammstein and Serge Lopez simultaneously, and end it all by dumping a mixture of talcum powder and green chilli sauce on my head.

161 pyrit 03.23.07 at 6:17 pm

Eyup, why I myself were so poor I put free samples on lay away.

162 ShelleyTambo 03.23.07 at 7:04 pm

pyrit, twenty-nine hour workdays were the EASY ones, when I was just a twinkle in my dad’s eye. By the time I was a lass o’ ten year, we were truly deprived and suffering: the 13-inch telly with knobs (dials), rabbit ears, and no remote!

Teri, it’s called the Four Yorkshiremen (http://www.phespirit.info/montypython/four_yorkshiremen.htm ).

163 iwubkitties 03.23.07 at 7:06 pm

haha!
so cute! it looks like he’s looking at a painting and judging it…

or paint blobs

“hey! i see my mommy in that one!!”

164 Aubrey 03.23.07 at 7:11 pm

Yay for Black Adder! Yay for M. Python!

I wish I could have come in on this sooner, but it’s hard work at mill, cleaning the lake and all that with only a handful of hot gravel for breakfast…

165 ShelleyTambo 03.23.07 at 7:13 pm

Stupid parenthesis and period attaching to end of link. Here it is: http://www.phespirit.info/montypython/four_yorkshiremen.htm

That mentions sulphuric acid instead of poison cuz it’s from a live performance, not the show.

166 Theo 03.23.07 at 7:16 pm

Hey, I already fixt’it, ShellyT… just gotta leave a little whitespace at the end…

167 ShelleyTambo 03.23.07 at 7:22 pm

Thanks, T-O. Didn’t realize I left the space out cuz I was so thrown off by being asked to prove that I was a “human down below.”

168 Theo 03.23.07 at 7:24 pm

Huh.
So, how’d you do it?

169 ShelleyTambo 03.23.07 at 7:30 pm

Apparently all you have to do is type some letters and numbers in a box. I don’t know how that proves anything about being human down below.

170 Theo 03.23.07 at 7:33 pm

Depends on how you type ‘em, I guess.

171 ShelleyTambo 03.23.07 at 7:40 pm

That sounds…ticklish.

172 Auntie Alex 03.23.07 at 8:42 pm

MmmmmmmmmmmWAH!

173 Claire 03.23.07 at 8:50 pm

BACK paw? Even Qte-er! As if that were possible. SO WHITE. The whitest cute ever.

174 Thorne 03.23.07 at 11:44 pm

*is rolling around DED*
*recovers*
I realised – after I posted of course – that I hadn’t spelled skis right. Which didn’t matter, ’cause at the time, I couldn’t remember how to spell them!
… Kitty! Kittytoes! …. with unfortunate pointy-bits on the ends. Anyone have any luck with those Softpaws things?

175 Aunty-G 03.24.07 at 1:08 am

when I’m a havin’ withdrawal from teh QTE, sometimes I lurve the tangents even more:
“The Dreaded Batter-Pudding Hurler of Bexhill-on-Sea”…anyone?

176 Noel 03.24.07 at 1:25 am

Hi! This having a Noel and a Noelle in the same place at the same time is really getting me confused. Help?

177 The First Noel (the one and original Noel) 03.24.07 at 1:27 am

I guess for clarification and to quit this confusion I am getting, I shall call myself here, from now on, The First Noel.

LOL

178 oaklandcat 03.24.07 at 2:11 am

shelley tambo, I was just teasing ya ;)
I, too, have experienced the kitty-as-fungus phemonenon…

179 oaklandcat 03.24.07 at 2:14 am

that’s gotta be a front paw. it has the ‘thumb.’

180 R. Moore 03.24.07 at 2:15 am

Theo, you don’t love James Herriot? Are you without a heart?

:P

Actually, I do love his first book, but the one interspersed with war stories seems a little lackluster. And I’m an Anglophile that grew up in a very British region, so I’m biased.

181 Suntio 03.24.07 at 2:34 am

People, the caption says something about CHEWING on its paw for hours, not licking it or cleaning it. Emily can be all over her cat but if the cat’s got a splinter between its toes, how’s she gonna know? And yes, I think it is IMPORTANT that she knows. Excuse me for caring about the cat.

182 boss2080 03.24.07 at 3:36 am

It looks like she is having the same reaction my cat had when we were watching the news about the pet food recall!

Cat: I think I am going to BARF!!!!

183 Alexa 03.24.07 at 3:50 am

Hmmmm, looks to me like a case of Sylvester an Tweety-bird going on here.
Kitty trying to hide de evidence from little old lady with big umbrella. See those fat little cheeks?
Your cuteness kitty will not save you.
Spit out Tweety-bird this instance or you’ll be making little ole lady very
angry.

184 Alexa 03.24.07 at 4:37 am

shelley tambo
trapped on the toilet for 20 minutes- You mean I’m not the only one!!
And how about having the cats just about duke it out there in the bathroom over who gets dibs on moms lap. And how about when I pull a ’supid, selfish, human stunt’ and shut the bathroom door thus leaving them to beat on the door with their tiny tiny paws. Which if I had a heart ( according to them ) would leave me guilt stricken. Now that the truth is out, that I have fellow suffers I shall no longer hang my head in shame over my selfishness
I have given up on baths. One wants to join me and the other yowls in fear for my very life!!
I had thought that with my sons getting older it meant no more toddlers in the house.
Silly feeble minded me. lol
What’s really funny is how well they have trained our dog Lily. Snoozing by herself-ya right, she makes a good fluffy warm place.
Naturally her food must first be taste tested by the cats.
Lily does fights for lap time by backing up and plopping down into my lap.The cats have learned to scoot fast or be plopped on lol.

185 hue 03.24.07 at 5:16 am

ssooooo cuteeee!!!!

186 Ninjin 03.24.07 at 2:24 pm

Aaaaaww, I love his/her pink little nose. Pink noses rule, don’t they?

187 Teri 03.24.07 at 4:27 pm

Sunito: Ummm….the caption on the picture came from Meg’s (the blog owner)imagination. It’s not meant to be taken literally, as you seem to have done.

It’s meant as nothing more than a silly, humourous caption that has nothing to do with reality. Just like every other caption she’s placed on every other picture in this blog. Something that came to her mind when she looked at the picture.

That it has to be explained is kinda, well, sad. (just as sad as the explination of message board basics I just had to give someone who claims to be a website designer)

188 Theresa 03.24.07 at 4:54 pm

Thread-creep is a mark of a group of first-rate minds. :P

189 lauowolf 03.24.07 at 5:58 pm

Sunito-

You seem to be truly worried, and perhaps aren’t familiar with cats (since you are worried).
Cats do this all the time.
It is part of their regular grooming.
A fastidious cat will clean out the fur between each of its toes, licking and chewing to get to the skin as part of their regular grooming cycle.
And some cats are way fastidious, and will do this for a long time.
I know I have seen my cat chewing like this on her foot for a good ten minutes.
True, ten minutes is not “hours.”
But “hours” is Meg making a “joke”.
Humor, a difficult concept.

190 The First Noel 03.24.07 at 9:40 pm

I want to gently pinch those big, fluffy, cute widdle cheekees!

I want more kitty photos, please!

191 Alida McDaniel 03.25.07 at 5:50 am

My cat, Mr. BoJangles, sucks on his paw pad like a kid sucks its thumb. He loves it and purrrs away, even switches between his two front paws to change things up a bit. When he was a kitten he would suck on my fingers but then i tryed to stop him from this habit and then he found his paw pads and has done this ever since. I love it and its the cutest thing!!

192 Theo 03.25.07 at 6:03 am

Alida — now, to me, that sounds like a cat who may have been weaned too early. Any possibility of that?

193 Alida McDaniel 03.25.07 at 6:10 am

Theo- yea, he was a stray some friends found meowing out in the rain all alone and we took him in as part of the family. i have pics of him on my page
http://tinkerbellenchanted.bebo.com he is a 1 yr 1/2 old now. Totally my baby! hehe

194 lurkertype 03.25.07 at 6:10 am

Nah, Teho, my TK does that (back foot) and I KNOW his momma was done feeding him before I dragged him’s fuzzy widdle butt to live indoors wif us. Nothing like a momcat paw swipe to tell the kittens they’re all done nursing!

195 lurkertype 03.25.07 at 6:14 am

Or rather, not necessarily.

Mr. Bo is way handsome.

196 Alida McDaniel 03.25.07 at 6:18 am

lurkertype-Thankyou, i think he is too, hehe :-D

197 core 03.25.07 at 7:50 am

This kittums looks almost exactly like my boy, including the cheekypoofs. I currently get an extreme closeup of them every night when he demands his nighttime schnurgles.

My boy is also a polydactyl but it’s the front paws which have the thumbs (with two claws on each). He sometimes makes the paw-sucking noise/snort, and somehow he keeps the white part of his fur just glowing. Polydactyl tux boys rule!

198 VitaminJ 03.26.07 at 4:12 am

That kitty’s gonna need braces – just like Bucky Katt.

199 ShelleyTambo 03.26.07 at 12:38 pm

alexa, no you’re not the only one. My last foster cat was worse as lap fungus (esp when I was on the pot), but a lot of kits I know are like this. My problem is that I live in an old Victorian house that is starting to settle, so the floors are uneven and thus many of the doors, including the one to the potty, don’t usually close all the way. Kitty can almost always stick a paw in and yank the door open.
