Got a kitten, kitten, kitten, kitten in my hair

It is the seventh anniversary of Kittening Day, when the children of golden-eyed Hera left their fosterage with the family of [personal profile] a_reasonable_man and came to live with us. We celebrate them constantly.



Hestia, presiding over the remains of her scratch box. One of her cult titles is Death to Cardboard.



Autolycus, sacked out on my shoulder. A few nights ago he chased a plastic bottlecap through the apartment at exactly the hour we wanted to be asleep.

I learned tonight that in 1930, John Steinbeck wrote, shelved, but did not destroy an unpublished werewolf novel called Murder at Full Moon. "Its characters include . . . an eccentric amateur sleuth who sets out to solve the crime using techniques based on his obsession with pulp detective fiction." Take my money, please.

*pets the kittens, kittens, kittens, once they're out of Sovay's hair* XD May you have many more wonderful years with these clearly marvelous and well-beloved cats.

The icon is of a purrful lap cat of a torbie tripod who was, after the pic was taken, adopted by a fellow volunteer and is, last I heard, happy as can be and charming her person's entire family.
