What Enchantment Is This?

As I gazed upon the mysterious portal, a lone figure resolved itself before my astonished eyes. It was I, playing with… string! Lustrous, silken string, like none I had ever seen before (as least not that I can remember)! It was my own future I saw, conjured by some dark magic to bewitch and ensnare me.

    I think she wants to play with the other kitten!

    Further proof that the Internet is made entirely out of cats. The only way this could be more perfect is if the computer in the background of the video was also playing a cat video.

    Also, I wonder which of the geniuses at Kittywood Studios came up with this one?

    I have the pleasure of living with TWO kitties of this coloring. It’s called classic tabby and it is indeed beautiful! My Jack is a 2 year old Maine Conn with a wonderful floofy tail. Alex is a 2 month old foster kitten who looks nearly identical to the wee kitty in this video. They are WONDERFUL!
