If I could convince Sophie to power-knead my shoulders and back instead of my stomach, she'd make a great massage-cat. As it is, I just end up with paw-shaped bruises on my stomach. Sadly, she doesn't seem to be trainable or interested in learning a new trade.
Every night when we go to bed, Simon gives me a neck massage on my left side. Which is usually great, except for when his nails need to be trimmed or when he sticks his cold, wet nose in my ear.

Okay, I could use one of those massages right now. I wonder how I could motivate her to do this without smearing tuna on my back and shoulders.

Luckily he doesn't use claws. He just rolls around and smushes his face into my hair and my shoulder and is a little crazy. There is a video from my last video. I will find it.

I'm creating a Christmas Wish List for my kittehs (with pictures and hyperlinks). I know this is wrong - oh so very very wrong - but I also know that it will get a reaction out of one of my siblings. And really, it would be nice if they got a little treat since they give my niece and nephews presents.
I have a Sophie (she's a brown tabby) and she's appeared here. I think it is a popular cat name, although I didn't realize it at the time. Your Sophie is gorgeous!!
- Katy S
Thanks. Thats her in my profile picture too, that picture was taken a couple of days after I picked her up from the shelter, looks a lot better now...jejejeje. She's been with me for 6 years.

Kitty Reminder Again - With Photos!! Same as before but with photos of our friend's kitty who recently swallowed yarn and apparently shoelaces (They can't figure out where the shoelaces came from). Please keep, yarn, shoelaces, string, etc away from your kitties. They may not be able to pass it themselves which means surgery or worse. Be careful!
In the baggy, everything that came out of her stomach. That is an impressive amount of string for a little kitty. Also, here is the other post: http://friendfeed.com/kitteh...

Clearly that man has spent time around cats. It doesn't even seem to phase him.
- Katy S
Glad you enjoyed it, Rachel! A friend of mine sent it to me. As far as I'm able to determine, this is the most patient police officer in the universe.
- Stephen Mack
Seriously, he is very patient!! At least kitty didn't start to go crazy on his head. My friends cat does it to me and if I didn't know the cat, one that just came up to me on the street, it might freak me out some.

Grey & White Kitten (Bay Area) Needs Home!! You Can Haz Kitteh!! Here is her story from a friend of a friend: To current and potential cat lovers For some still unexplained reasons one of our male cats showed up on the doorsteps with a kitten. He is not a father, I am quite sure about that, but otherwise it is a total mystery.
The kitten was in a bad shape but otherwise healthy. Our cat has been playing mom/dad role since then teaching the kitten all tricks of the trade. Meanwhile others cats in our household are freaking out at the sight of this heavenly picture. Since in our household cat to human ratio is already out of whack big time, I need to find a home for this beautiful, smart creature. The kitten understands Russian and English, has a good grasp of data processing techniques and possesses basic understanding of project management concepts. Because our house is filled with various art pieces, the kitten has learned to appreciate a fine art. I would hate to surrender her to a shelter for uncertain future A bottle of French champagne, or Armenian cognac, or Georgian (Black Sea) wine, or Russian vodka, and a box of the finest Belgian chocolate will accompany the kitten. Any combination of these spirits is possible. No reasonable offer will be refused.

Good question MaryB. Let me check in and find out how things are going with the home hunt!
- Rachel Lea Fox
Seriously - have you had any interest so far? I'm tempted as well, but I don't think you can Fedex a kitteh.
- MaryB, BrandingBroadOfFF
I haven't gotten any interest to my searches but she may have gotten interest elsewhere.
- Rachel Lea Fox
So this little girl has not found a home yet. A few people have expressed interest in her, but no one has said yes yet! Anyone out there interested in this adorable little girl!!???!!!
- Rachel Lea Fox
If we didn't already have 4 kittens and 2 adult cats, I totally would take her in :(
- Tsali, The Native of FF
Would someone please convince Louis that he really doesn't need to breathe very well and twins and I need a kitty. I'm in love with that face!
- Kristine Gray
Louis stop being so selfish! Babbies need kittens! IT IS A FACT!
- Andrizzle Gizzle
I totally understand Tsali! I also can't but would if I could!
- Rachel Lea Fox
Seriously Louis! Breathing is over-rated! And I'm sure that Kristine will let you choose the alcohol that goes with this kitten. So it's win win!!

Bren - I got Plum at the animal shelter. I'm sure she's mixed breed, but she does have a lot of Russian Blue characteristics. Her eyes are more yellow-green, though, and she has some ghost striping here and there - mostly on her tail.
- Katy S
Today I accidentally let the kittehs onto the enclosed porch. Normally, this would not be a big deal, but since the weather has turned cold, it's where their catnip plant resides. They found the plant very quickly. Sophie's been good, but since I brought them back inside Plum has been trying to break through the door to the porch. Bad Kitteh!!!
I love that last one: OPEN.THE.DAMN.DOOR. NOW.
- holly
but she looks so cute and innocent you should let her at it :)
- Sir Shuping
"cute and innocent"? Did you notice that her fangs are showing in that second photo? This is my cat on drugs.
- Katy S
I love that last photo. So regal! I'm telling you!
- Captain Bubbles
I know she is, really, I just see all of the silly things she does all of the time. Her fur is really amazingly plush and it's all silver-tipped, which accounts for why it can look different from picture to picture depending on the lighting.
- Katy S
I have considered growing catnip for Stormy, but she is already demented enough.
- Mellissa Claus
I'm definitely not bringing it inside. Once the porch is too cold, it gets to die. Growing it outside was fine, because I could control their intake. I don't think I could handle it if they had constant access to the 'nip.
- Katy S
Picture 2 is totally that of a cat going through "nip" withdrawal! LOVE!!!
- Helen Sventitsky
Three Days Later: This morning, after I crawled out of bed, I found both cats sitting in front of the door to the porch, mewing, and desperate for their morning dose of 'nip. This is sooooooooooooo not good.
- Katy S
Plum seems to like sprawling across me, partially suspended, just like that.
- Katy S
My cats do too, Katy, but as they fall asleep they fall through the crevass. Horrible scratches ensue...
- FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
Yeah, that happens here, too, only there isn't very much scratching - but that's just because there's normally a soft upholstered piece of furniture there to catch them.
- Katy S
sometimes Indy falls, but usually I'm too fidgety to stay in one exact position for long enough for her to get to the falling stage. Brian however sleeps very very still.
- Rachel Lea Fox
Once upon a time, Sophie was a shy cat who would look up at me from the floor and give a little chirp to ask if she could jump up and sit on my lap. Now, she jumps up and tries to sit on my chest before she chirps. Oh, how things have changed.
