Happy 2nd birthday to Harry and Polly!

How about some cat pictures instead of any actual linkity?

I was super productive today, but linkity was not one of the things I produced. :shrugging: Please enjoy some cat pictures. 😀

And I know I don’t say it enough, but thank you to everyone who’s still around reading and/or commenting! You guys are the best.

Sibling smackdown!

Polly upsidedown cake!

Polly caught pre-thlurrrrp, managing to look as if there’s not a brain cell in her fuzzy little head.

Kittens!

Introducing Harbinger (“Harry”) and Apocalypse (“Polly”). They’re still living in the kitty room as I slowly get Mayhem used to their scents and curious about them.

They were found abandoned in a field near the beginning of August 2020 and were bottle fed by their foster mom. They’re a bonded pair and they also LOVE PEOPLE.

“Whatcha doing, lady?” -Harry and Polly

Maybe it’s just me, but I think Harry looks an awful lot like Chaos. Harry’s eyes are an unphotographable amber (not green) and he has a perfectly normal tail (versus Chaos’ slightly short tail with its kinked tip). I would NOT recommend getting between Harry and a sparkle ball.

“Why did you stop petting me, lady?!” -Harry

“Does this scratcher make my ears look big?” -Harry

Polly’s a sweet goofball! Very snuggly and a bit more timid than Harry. Harry’s a bit more reserved than Polly.

“That was some good ‘nip, lady!” -Polly

“I guess I like you ok, lady!” -Polly

No linkity this week because sad

Thanks so much to everyone who’s offered comfort and let me know about the impression Chaos left on them. (If you missed my previous post…) Mayhem and I are both definitely feeling his absence – he was present for all but the first three months of her life, and he was present for nearly a third of mine. That’s his gloriously green eye at the top of this page (and it’s staying there, even though it just made me cry). (You can go back and read his origin story here.)

I’m pretty sure my usual posting schedule will resume soonishly, because there’s a certain comfort in routine.

Take care. Go hug your pets and family members.
