Birthday Update
Happy birthday, Mayhem!! Although you’re all grown up now, you will always be my Kitten Girl. (Actual size of that “huge” blue mouse below? 2.25 inches… Actual size now of Mayhem’s back leg from toe to knee? 4.5 inches…)

There will be a contest to celebrate her birthday – but it’s going to be after I get back back from Colorado, near the end of June.

“But… I still feel like a kitten…” -Mayhem

  1. Awwww, happy birthday Baby Mayhem! Gandalf sez that all the cutie kitties are born in May. Look at how tiny she was! He also says to tell her that being one is pretty overrated. He’s still every bit the kitten too.

  2. Congratulations to the little kitty! Though adorable as a kitten (huge mouse?), you are beautiful and sleek as a grown(ish) feline! Enjoy grown kitten life to the most – remember all the things you can reach now 😉

  3. Happy Birthday, May! You’ve grown to be a beautiful cat.

    By the way Chris, I saw your confession 😉 Promise, next year, there will be less stranding!

  4. Dear Mayhem, Although we’ll probably never meet, I can tell by your smell that I would really like you. Have a great birthday and keep striving to bite those cords. the moms really like that.
    Love, Tig

    Dear Mayhem, I like to like everything. Do you like treats? I love to run in the park. Do you want this bone. Happy Birthday. Love Holli.

  5. Happy Birthday Mayhem? It seems like just yesterday we met you as a teenie kitteh, and you are still such a pretty girl!! Love, Inky

    Yo, May. Happy Birthday from Mr. Boo Kitty!

  6. Happy birthday, May!! What a fun year it’s been, watching you grow up. I’m impressed that you’ve still got that same toy in mint condition to play with… Or is Mom playing tricks on us?

  7. You have cat toys that last a year?!?!?! That’s impressive. I replace mousies every few months.

    Happy Birthday, Mayhem! – Ricky & Phoebe

  8. Happy, happy birthday May! You’re a BIG kitty now. No more chewed whiskers, or losing toys to the Big Kitty since you can hold your own now. May, may your day be full of birds out the window (which, I am sure, we will both catch someday), tuna and NIP. Licks-Bailey

    PS-I told Millie that is was your birthday and she has promised to chew some paper, eat the plants and do that slipper-yak thing that someone else suggested. All in honor of YOU!

  9. My babie’s are just about a year old now too(we don’t know their exact birthday). It’s crazy how fast they grow up.

    Happy Birthday, Mayhem!

  10. um, didn’t you just get her? like, yesterday? she can’t be one already! wow, I forgot how tiny she was

    hippo birdies to ewe, Mayhem!

  11. Happy Birthday, May! I turned 6 in April, but my stupid humans forgot to throw me the giant party I had requested. I have retaliated with multiple 5:41 am wake-up calls.

    Next year, we should demand tuna-cakes.

  12. Happy birthday, May! Such a cute widdle kitty you were! (And such a cute bigger kitty now!)

    May this year bring you lots of mice, treats, and things to munch on.

  13. Tyler and Sammy Blue say, “we’re twin brothers born May 9th and we agree all cute cats are born in May!”

    Jake (March 23), Zander (March 4) and Ophelia (November 9) feel they must disagree.

    However, all five conpurr that you are adorable, Mayhem, and insist that you have the happiest of birthdays.

  14. Mayhem is one today?! Wow. I can’t believe it’s been a year. And I’ve been here to witness it all. Woohoo!

    Happy B-day Mayhem. May the catnip be extra good today.
