Russian blue! Soooo purdy.

2 Erin 04.02.07 at 3:04 pm

There is nothing cuter than a dainty grey kitty paw. Unless it’s long, cheek-sweeping Muppet eyelashes on kitty-snorgling boys.

3 Cathryn Bauer 04.02.07 at 3:08 pm

What a little plushie-puss!

I bet that kitty’s paws hardly ever hit the ground.

4 nutmeg 04.02.07 at 3:11 pm

How sweet. This looks like a daily ritual, which makes me INSANE with jealousy. That kitty looks as soft as velvet.

5 layla42 04.02.07 at 3:17 pm

Aw! Kitters looks totally like my Speak!
And Speak is a total Cassanova who loves to get as well as give snugglin’s.

6 jen 04.02.07 at 3:20 pm

awwwwww, kissy kissy zee kitteh! mmmtwchwaaa!

7 Robbie 04.02.07 at 3:21 pm

Yep, I’ve snorgled my kitten today. Couldn’t deal with Monday if I hadn’t!

Lovely pic. That certainly is a snorglicious kitty!

8 Spryte808 04.02.07 at 3:27 pm

I hate mondays but the cute totally makes everything better!

9 Suzanne 04.02.07 at 3:27 pm

He looks so soft I can pratcically touch him through my computer screen. *bonk* Okay, no I can’t, but I wish I could!

10 Meals 04.02.07 at 3:29 pm

i’ve had my morning snorgle =]

11 ThreeCatNight 04.02.07 at 3:30 pm

So delicious and snorgly. One happy kitteh. I would love to cuddle him, too.

12 Claire 04.02.07 at 3:31 pm

velvet-y kitty! so soft.

13 kellyfaerie 04.02.07 at 3:32 pm

I’ve snorgled 2 kittehs today, and had some coffee. Still feel blah, but I will eventually get to go home and snorgle some more. :)

14 beenclawed 04.02.07 at 3:34 pm

Oh yes, my kitty has been snorgled today, and she snorgled me right back! it’s the daily morning ritual. Today I turned off my alarm clock instead of hitting snooze. Thank goodness my kitty kept pawing at me to get her morning snorgle or else I would have been way later than 10 minutes late to work! Good girl Sunny!

16 Holly 04.02.07 at 3:38 pm

Oh what a snorgle puss! I love a good snorgle with my Tonks. It makes my day.

17 Hazel 04.02.07 at 3:42 pm

plush velvet kitty…..

Unable to snorgle kitties cuz I’m allergic to catz….. but happy to be a distance surrogate snorgler through the screen here…..

But, I did snorgle my husky instead…. just as satisfying really…

18 Elizabeth B. 04.02.07 at 3:42 pm

Cute happy boy + Cute happy kitty = happy smiley reader.

19 zeldapie 04.02.07 at 3:42 pm

Ooooh, such a soft, velveteen kitteh.
Yup, I snorgled my baby this morning!

20 weasel_tea_party 04.02.07 at 3:44 pm

Snorgling complete! Or as close to it as Nicky will allow–petting and lap-time while I read the comics. There’s some staring out the window that has to be taken care of now, though.

21 lindr 04.02.07 at 3:52 pm

Yes, yes I have snorgled my velvety soft grey kitters this morning. He doesn’t let me out of the house without it!

22 misscrisp 04.02.07 at 3:52 pm

AHN! That kitteh looks mah Ruble. What a loverly peekture.
by the by…I be kitten-sitting for me mum for two weeks. Ruble and the babykit have never lived with another of their kind since their respective rescues (Ruble is nearly 2, baby is 12 weeks). This morning we have a reached a Big Moment peeps! A gentle nose-bump with no hissing or fur ruffles. Here’s to new friends!

23 misscrisp 04.02.07 at 3:53 pm

um…looks LIKE mah Ruble. Man, silly talk looks a lot sillier when it has typos in it.

24 Karebear 04.02.07 at 3:56 pm

So Plush! Like soft carpeting!
(except, I don’t snorgle my carpeting)

25 Deckard Canine 04.02.07 at 4:00 pm

So, where does the line form?

26 joodster 04.02.07 at 4:01 pm

Oh yesh, I thoroughly snorgled my furbaby, Lola this morning. As for the Blue and the boy, not sure who’s enjoying themselves more. They both look so haaaapeeee!

27 Martha 04.02.07 at 4:02 pm

I would say this is sweet overload as opposed to that of the cute ilk.

28 Amanda 04.02.07 at 4:02 pm

That cat is totally smiling. Le sigh…

29 Ca 04.02.07 at 4:03 pm

That looks just like my Galena (aka Fuzzy Butt). Russian Blues are so incredible soft!

30 Ca 04.02.07 at 4:04 pm

32 Cat-astrophe 04.02.07 at 4:05 pm

Many many apologies – not sure how that happened!

33 beezie687 04.02.07 at 4:05 pm

Grey nose on grey fur… QTE!

34 Sneezy 04.02.07 at 4:10 pm

purr purr purr purrrrrrrrrrr

35 Beth W. 04.02.07 at 4:11 pm

As it happens, I have — with a kitty who looks a lot like that — but I’m going for seconds before I head to work!

36 Sharon 04.02.07 at 4:12 pm

I think the cat has acheived “zen”. Anyone else notice the little fur tuft at the top of the ear?

37 kelly 04.02.07 at 4:21 pm

Lovely velvet-pawed kitteh friend! *snorgles* I can just imagine how soft that fur would be snuggled up against my cheek… :)

38 GypsyLynx 04.02.07 at 4:23 pm

That lovely looks just like my adorable Chartreux, Natasha. She doesn’t just have a m*rning snuggle ritual, she ever-so-sweetly demands said ritual every day. Double-snuggles for her today, after seeing this pic!

39 BenPanced 04.02.07 at 4:23 pm

I can hear the purring all the way over here…

40 Subhangi 04.02.07 at 4:24 pm

Awww.

Well, a cat snorgled me today – does that count?

41 Christina 04.02.07 at 4:34 pm

I have not yet had my morning snorgle – any volunteers? (or anyone volunteering their pets?)

Such a cutie.

42 Lauren 04.02.07 at 4:37 pm

I hate being in college and not being able to have a pet. that is so precious.

43 Teughcats 04.02.07 at 4:38 pm

Looks like my Ally except she’s all black. She’s nicknamed Squishy because she goes all limp and relaxed when you pick her up! And fires up her purr motor.

44 liz 04.02.07 at 5:01 pm

Veeeery cute interspecies snorgling! Nice.

45 Redsrevenge 04.02.07 at 5:04 pm

Why is my kitty dead? D:

We used to snorgle. I can’t snuggle my new kitty much, because she’s afraid unless you corner her; THEN she’ll be all happy you’re petting her. And I don’t get to see her often to earn her trust D:

I could try snorgling my lizard, but I think that would just confuse him.

46 DKN 04.02.07 at 5:07 pm

Mmmmm…I suspect he’s whispering sweet nothings in that kitteh’s ear :)

47 Arvay 04.02.07 at 5:09 pm

How sweet! My sister has a kitty that looks just like that, but my sister’s kitty is pure evil. :)

48 TFMS 04.02.07 at 5:19 pm

This is what love looks like.

49 wendy 04.02.07 at 5:19 pm

I snorgled my foster-bunny! He nuzzled my neck and tooth-purred.

Sadly he is going back to the rescue tomorrow. My girl-bun bit him rather badly despite my best efforts at working with them. He’s a sunny little bunny and I hope he finds a forever home with no nasty bitch-bunnies.

50 A thinker 04.02.07 at 5:37 pm

AGH IT’S A GRAY KITTY.

*swoon of pure bliss*

*and envy*

51 Kate 04.02.07 at 5:49 pm

THAT is a happy kitty. There’s a little smirk on his face. :D

52 Bob 04.02.07 at 5:51 pm

I think Jen should win the Nobel Prize in the little-known category of Kiss Spelling.

53 Maggie of the Pearl Rose 04.02.07 at 5:59 pm

It makes me wish I could have a kitty sometimes. One day, I shall be able to snorgle teh cuteness instead of just awwww-ing at the pictures!

54 Jorden 04.02.07 at 6:19 pm

I agree with TFMS-this IS what love looks like!
Holy Moly that is a darling picture!!!

55 leah 04.02.07 at 6:26 pm

I had a cat as wonderful as that one, his name was george. He was a great cat, looks like that one is too.

56 cutebabyfix.com 04.02.07 at 6:28 pm

This reminds me of sumthin we do on cutebabyfix- Hot daddy friday! The babies are cute, but their daddies are cuter.
Come on over when your done here and check us out!

57 Martha in Washington 04.02.07 at 6:28 pm

I love a man who openly snorgles kitties!

58 Orora 04.02.07 at 6:41 pm

Awww…this kitteh looks like my Zoe, who gets her snorgling and kitteh milk every morning. I ask her to “Tell me you love me” and she headbutts me, then I give her kitty milk. I loves me a good snorgle.

59 Lucy 04.02.07 at 6:45 pm

Aww, I really had to look closely (and check who the submitter was- no one I know) to make sure that wasn’t my parent’s cat Milo. Even though he’s about 5 yrs. old (in human years) he acts like he’s about 2 (in human years) but occasionally you can get a good snorgle out of him. Yes, they are as plush and soft as they look!

60 lurkertype 04.02.07 at 7:02 pm

Yes, a tortie has been snorgled here. Big purr from HRT.

No one’s snorgled TK as he’s still a kitten and (since it’s not nap time) he’s moving through the house at Mach 2.

This is a bootiful floofy gray boy and his person must be a good guy. Do both of them live with the sender-inner? If so, go Nancy T!

61 ali 04.02.07 at 7:23 pm

i get angry meows if the snorgling doesn’t happen instantly as the alarm goes off. sometimes the snorgle demands start BEFORE the alarm goes off! i have two very demanding boys…

62 Colleen 04.02.07 at 7:41 pm

Spitting image of my kitteh, Russian Blue mix named Vincenzo Esteban Crepuscular
(pronounced “Veen-chen-zo Esss-te-bahn Kreh-poos-kue-lar”. Vinny for short.

63 Yitzysmommie 04.02.07 at 7:46 pm

Wunnerful pic. I had my snorgles from Yitzy who has stayed close to me all this weekend & this morning while I am under the weather with the flu.

64 Nancy 04.02.07 at 7:55 pm

Only the kitty lives with me, but the boy is a dear friend! The kitty, Smokeybearcat also snorgles my sweet hubby. ‘Mokey seems to like the whisker friction!

65 musicchick2 04.02.07 at 8:38 pm

Lurvoleee!

66 chacha 04.02.07 at 8:55 pm

Colleen, great name for your cat! Ours are Benito Pussolini McBadger and Esmeralda Lucrezia McWeasel. And they are beautiful, but this gorgeous blue might have ‘em beat.

67 Jorden 04.02.07 at 9:28 pm

McBadger and McWeasel!
That’s hilarious!

68 sas 04.02.07 at 9:38 pm

ooh, sweetie kitty looks just like my british shorthair, Boadicea. http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a127/sastevens/santamouse.jpg

So much so that I had to rush home to commence snorgling!

69 fluidstatic 04.02.07 at 10:30 pm

I require a prosh Russian Blue for daily snorgling… They’re my favorite breed and I’ve secretly wanted one for an eternity.

70 The Chipnotizer 04.02.07 at 11:49 pm

NO!!! NO!!! This kitteh looks exactly like mine—Mr. Fatboy!!! Er–I mean Pippin James. (uh-I didn’t name him–I rescued him) Same fuzzy, frosty grey fur, same w-i-d-e nose-everything the same. Is your kitteh about four??? Is he from Ohio??? Does he have orange eyes??? Have you had fur up your nose ever since you got your kitteh??? If all the above are YES please email!!! Mr. Fatboy has lost track of all his relatives!!! TY >^..^<

71 Nicolletta 04.03.07 at 12:22 am

Velvet kitteh…so soft…so snorgable…..

72 Nancy 04.03.07 at 12:50 am

I got the green-eyed kitteh at the humane society in faribault, MN (http://www.ricecountyhumanesociety.org/)! If you can believe it, someone gave that beautiful cat up. I walked into the cat room, opened up his cage and I knew he was the snorgler for me.

73 Beck 04.03.07 at 1:18 am

Prettiest colored cat I’ve ever seen!

74 Lacey's Garden 04.03.07 at 1:49 am

sob sob. Looks like my beloved Seoul who was catnapped a few years ago. -sigh- Such beauty. I love the white skin up over the eyes. My girl was the same.

75 Brak_Silverbone 04.03.07 at 2:07 am

Looks like these two are the best of friends!

My Sheba loves to snorgle and be snorgled too, but she takes it to an extreme. When I’m in bed on a lazy day, she’ll climb in with me and, after much maneuvering, try to shove her muzzle into my eye socket (purring madly the whole time). Or sit on my head. I love her, but she’s weird sometimes.

76 Jorden 04.03.07 at 2:24 am

Smokeybearcat is TOO adorable.

77 Kim H. 04.03.07 at 2:42 am

I think that the blue kitties must really breed true, even the non-pedigreed. I have one (referred to around here as a Barnyard Blue, since I found him at a feed store) and I am always seeing kitties that look enough like him to be his littermate. Including the one in the pic… and judging from the comments, I am not the first one to say, “Hey! That looks just like MY kitty-boy!”

They are very soft and plush. Mine isn’t really a snorgler, though… he has (ahem) a mammary fixation. No well-endowed female is safe from his kneading pawsies. I have to warn my guests.

78 acelightning 04.03.07 at 4:35 am

What a *beautiful* cat! And what a lovely moment of affection, with a man who isn’t afraid to show his own “softer” side. (Incidentally, this goes a long way to even things up with regard to Cats’n'Racks – this is Cat’n'Dude, at any rate.)

79 oaklandcat 04.03.07 at 4:38 am

That is one happy cat *warm fuzzies all over*

80 Nikkal 04.03.07 at 6:19 am

sooo….soooft…must…pet…

looks like my Grayson…*sniff*…who had to find a new home ‘cuz my dad and my brothers were allergic to him…

I suggested we find a new home for my dad and my brothers, but that wasn’t even considered! hmph!

81 robin 04.03.07 at 9:22 am

I’m so lucky because I have a half Russian Blue half British shorthair that looks just like the picture…only he’s 30 pounds, and his name is Spencer and he purrs louder than anyone EVEH. He’s a real cuddly snorgler too…

82 Jen 04.03.07 at 1:12 pm

Ok, somebody must have been a SAINT in a past life in order to come back as that cat.

83 Mitsu 04.03.07 at 2:09 pm

Colleen – I love the use of the word “Crepuscular” in your kitty’s name! Hooray for the crepusculars! Most people don’t seem to know about that. ..I just recently learned myself, have been going around telling people, “My cats are crepuscular” and watching them get all perplexed-looking. Then I explain, of course. :p

84 Subhangi 04.03.07 at 2:19 pm

Gawd I had to look at this again. Awww.

85 Kim H. 04.03.07 at 3:32 pm

(tries to imagine 30 pound blue kitty and fails…)

86 book_monstercats 04.03.07 at 10:11 pm

Nikkai – sensible solution.

Great post – boy, eyelashes, pretty kitty.

Le Sigh.

87 hannah 04.04.07 at 6:44 am

ooooh this is probably the cutest thing i’ve ever seen! adorable.

88 The Chipnotizer 04.04.07 at 12:50 pm

Thanks for the reply, Nancy!!! Mr. Fatboy has seen the pic of your kitteh and is positive they are related way back somewhere—and we are right next door in N. Wisconsin—so he is comforted!!! And he knows all those other grey kittehs are also his cousins!!! Everyone snorgle your grey kitteh right NOW!!! Mr. Fatboy is mad because he has been put on a diet, but sends ^..^< :)

89 Kim H. 04.04.07 at 9:10 pm

My blue kitty just had ear surgery. He’s not really up to snorgling at the moment, poor boy. But he agrees that these other kitties MUST be his distant cousins.

90 Marina 04.09.07 at 12:46 am

Oh! My man and my lady cat look just like this pair! Silky gray fur and long eyelashes included… He even has a dark green coat. They say everybody has a double, But this is too much of a coincidence!
