Toesday

that mom lady sure is obsessed with toes....
she likes Tim and Tom and Ivy and Daiquiri's toes cause they are different colors....

toesday

 check out those jellybeans!!!

yes, that is Mo. Mom looked up the other day and this was sticking up over the back of the sofa.

Toesday

Miss Amelia ended up at the v-e-t yesterday. She just can't seem to shake the snot that she got. She is back on another drug and we are hoping this one works. We can tell she just doesn't feel very good. And we don't think it is very nice that mom is calling her Darth Snot.

  Rosemary contemplates how many toes she has
(a lot - she is a polydactyl or mitten paw)

 prior to his manicure, Basil wants you to know 

he has claws and is not afraid to use them

This is not the first time we have had polydactyl kittens, but Rosemary's white feet make her seriously even more adorable. And Miss Saffron's toes are a little more obvious as she gets bigger.

Toesday....

Sometimes we like to dangle our toes....

Toesday.....

We haven't done this for a while and mom was on a roll this weekend.

Mo toes - yeah....that is as good as it gets sometimes  :)

Ivy toes - so cute, it is a shame she won't let you touch them

Sierra toes - squeeeee

Junior toes

Toesday....

We interrupt this post to bring you breaking news:

CLEO HAS BEEN ADOPTED!!!

Just 48 hours after moving to a new store with adoption windows, she went home with a new mom and dad and an older kitty sibling.


We haven't done this in a while, so mom tried to get some new pictures. She was going to try to get some of the pepper boys, but they weren't cooperating. :)

check out the tongue..... and the multi colored toes.....  awwww
(mom says ignore the eye boogers)

Tim toes...and nose...and whiskers

Junior toes....mom holds out hope that SOME day 

she will be able to touch them

Allie or her boyfriend's prints in the snow

Toesday....

The chair in our living room is oversized and mom's favorite spot. There is a big pillow on it too. As mom was sitting there over the weekend, Bourbon balanced himself in the crack between the pillow and the arm of the chair.....and fell asleep. Mom couldn't resist taking more pictures of his cute self......

OMC - BREAKING NEWS!!!!!

(no, no one got adopted)

So, we all know that Doc is deaf. Ignores the vaccuum, can sleep through anything (including the cat food cans opening), etc....

But there was a weird event last night. See, mom has seen Doc's ears swivel before - but she wasn't sure if it was habit or whatever. Last night, however, she was watching a special she dvr'd about a month ago. It was about a wolf pack in Washington state (the special was good too). At one point the pack howled.

Now, here is the important part. The TV wasn't overly loud. Doc was about 4 feet away on the floor playing - not facing the TV. And the picture on the screen was just a night shot - the sound was the important part.

An adult howled - a lower sound. And then some pups joined in and their howl had a much higher pitch. And Doc's ears snapped up and his head snapped around to face the TV. And then ran over and was trying to find the noise in the TV.

Mom's jaw hit the floor. So now we suspect he can hear "something" - but it must be above a certain pitch. This is probably the first time mom has truly seen him react to a sound. This won't change his adoption status - he will still be listed as special needs and deaf - with no small kids to startle him. But it is interesting that he must be able to here certain things.....

Toesday.....

Mom loves Tim's toes.....she was going to try to get closer, but Junior was sleeping on the level above Tim and mom tries not to freak him out if she doesn't have too.

Gratuitous alcohol kitten picture (we have no idea why half of them look ticked off). Three of them got up there and mom put Moonshine up and viola. :)  Bourbon is in the back, Moonshine is on the left, then Whiskey and Gin over Whiskey's back. We know some blogs manage to get cute group photos of their fosters - this seems to be as close as mom can get. MOL

And a cute "toesday" kitten story. Mom was settling the kittens in for the night last night and Gin and Bourbon were both eating from the crunchy food bowl. Bourbon had one foot IN the dish and Gin had one foot ON the middle of Bourbon's head.  :)

Toesday.....

So it seems we inspired Zim and Dave over at Army of Four with some of our Toesday posts.  So we thought we would post more toes for their admiration....

Tim shows off his fashionable toes....with pink and black he matches everything. Mom says she would like to kiss them, but she knows where they have been. MOL
