    Early morning fail.

    Looks like a koala!

  4. Jan says:

    ‘Sleppy’ is good … I often feel ‘sleppy’. I also like the teeny tiny scratch on the human holding hand – more of the same to come I suspect.

  5. Madame X says:

    Tho’ velvet soft I am
    I am kitteh, hear me roar
    Your hands shall bear my mark!

  6. Chihgirl says:

  7. PJ says:

    Soft kitty, warm kitty, little ball of fur…

    (“Big Bang Theory” reruns have eaten my brain. Sorry.)

  8. Oh WHY do you do this to me?! I just lost my Russian Blue last week and now you confront me with this little morsel of Russian Blue cuteness. *tries to consider that maybe Legolas enjoyed his Russian Blue-ness so much that he chose to be reincarnated as one again*

  9. clara says:

    Oh my. So teeny. So sleepy and trusting. So blue the baby nose. Even the cosmos must be holding its breath in wonder…

    Kit or koala?
    Warm meelks or eucalyptus?
    Eh, who cares? It’s cute.

  11. Holly Wolf says:

    And i will put the kitten in my bra and snuggle it all day. Gosh, what a cutie pie. Love the ears at 9 and 3. All the easier to kiss that little forehead.

  14. Gigi says:

    You guys owe me a gazillion dollars in computer screen cleaner because you keep posting kitten so unbelievably cute that one can not resist trying to pet and kiss them resulting in lipstick and finger marks all over the screen!
    PLEASE don’t ever stop!

  15. kodalai says:

    Oh, I have no doubt he’ll be a ‘handful’ all right…

  16. Shaz says:

    Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

    Lately, the posts have been excruciatingly cute. I don’t usually eee.

    • Mary (the first) says:

      Perhaps the CO has finally penetrated to the point that your “eee level” is more in line with the rest of the CO peeps?

  17. Bianca D says:

    A tender mowthful of cute, disarming me with his invitation to snorgle… Curse the cold, hard, computer screen that separates us!

    tiny kitten head
    just the perfect size for snack
    pop it in my mouth

  26. Kar says:

    That’s not what I would expect from a source calling itself Sensual Shadows Photography. I suspect this is the cutest thing they’ve ever shot!

  27. Mudbug says:

    Hey Meg & Gang,
    You guys are “keeling” me !!! I have 7 “kids” in a four bdrm. house & you STILL make me want more ! So I’m going to go away until I don’t want every single kitten you show us………….

    O.k, I’m back , I just couldn’t stay away any longer . The absence from you all was HORRIBLE ! I think I need to go to the mod lounge for a restorative beverage !

  28. Starfish says:

    Smooshy-face kitten.
    I can almost hear honk-shus.
    Will beep nose softly.

  29. Angel says:

    Teenthee tiny kit barely even a mouthful!

  30. Mary (the first) says:

    No way to feel blue
    Looking at this sweet blue face.
    Better yet, smooch it.

  31. Robin Kiesel says:

    okay! freshly made salsa and chips anyone?

  32. Open your eyes, furball.
    Someday those nubbular ears
    Will come together.

  33. Noelegy says:

    What a wee cutie
    Looks like my Maggie baby
    Rhapsody in blue

  34. I’ve always thought that what human babies need is a nice soft coat of fur.
    In fact, Adam and Eve probably had nice blue coats like this and that’s why they didn’t know they were naked.

  35. Karma's Mom says:

    Russians are the best. We had one for 16 years. I hope this one grows up to be as loveable as our Anton P. Chekhov. We still miss him.

  36. ashagato says:

    Kitten’s the same size
    As the gift my cat just left
    Outside on the steps

  37. emmberrann says:

    Eyes not open yet.
    Ears at closed angle, too.
    Potential catness.

  38. Decca says:

    I just came from a meeting at the shelter where I volunteer. We’ll be opening the kitten nursery soon and this little one completely put me in the mood. Horray for kittens!

  39. chanpon says:

    Purple finger nail
    Distracting from the baby
    kitteh in the hand.

  40. snorglepup says:

    This made me check twice after the giant squirrlie head with eyes where ears should be. Everything’s in order here. Snorgle on…

  41. Feezie says:
