Simón demolished my robe!! I made the mistakenly took it off the hook to the top of the hamper. I couldn’t remember the last time I wore it and I was going to decide if I wanted to launder it but instead, Seamonster decided to destroy it.

A black cat sitting on a red fleece blanket - spread on the blanket before him is the sleeve of a jersey print robe. The light white interior is on top and the blue print is below it. There is a crescent chewed out of that fabric that is bigger than the cats head. Hear the robber spread out so you can see that there are three very large holes chewed out of it, and Seamonster is making airplane ear Here the photographer demonstrates the size of the hole in the sleeve with their left hand inside and you can see that it’s about 5 x 8” of fabric completely missing. Actually, I should go check the litter box right now. Here is a picture of a hole chewed into the center of the back of the robe.

Tony, sitting on Miss Mercy‘s tail — the nerve!

He got the message and moved off

#gingertuxedo #gingercat #gingertabby #kitten #blackcatranch #siamese #cat #catsofbluesky
A small black cat sitting on a gray fleece blanket in cat loaf position. Her face is at the lower left corner of the photo. Perpendicular to her the little ginger, tabby kitten is sitting up against her backside and laying on top of her tail, which you sticking out from underneath his right elbow. He is looking to the distance. Just past him is an adult, black cat, Eclipse - sitting across the corner of the bed with his head pointed toward the left side of the photo. He looks very sleepy. Same photo Miss Mercy looks a little bit annoyed, and her tail is now free of the kitten who has shifted his weight onto his left side to free up her tail and he’s making airplane ears and looking towards Miss Mercy

Eclipse just wants to have a little nap

#blackcat #kitten #blackcatranch #siamese #cat #catsofbluesky
In this picture, the black cat is sleeping on his side with his head, turned upside down so that his chin is pointed toward the ceiling and his right front is drawn up towards his face. He has his head, nestled in a fold of gray fleece blanket and his right eye is open. You can see his little canines sticking out like a little fruit bat cat.

Tiny Tony was refreshed after a group snuggle and wanted to play - he got sassy with Miss Mercy and she gave him a lecture but he thought they were playing

Tiny Tony and Simón play session under Mayor Jojo’s stern supervision

#gingertuxedo #gingercat #gingertabby #kitten #blackcatranch #siamese #cat #catsofbluesky #blackcats
A ginger tabby tuxedo kitten stands up on his back legs with his front paws, reaching for a cluster of red and green feathers at the end of a string on a teaser We see the left side of his face and profile and his right paw is grabbing the feathers while the left paw is reaching up, you can see his little pink toe beans. He’s on a light blue and gray pattern rug, and to his back at the left side of the photo is a light brown wood coffee table To his right in a dark brown round cat bed is a smaller black cat, who is sitting in cat loaf position and looking at him. The same kitties as the previous picture except in this time, the ginger kitty is sitting on the floor with his back to the photographer, and his right paw is up in the air, his little white mittens, making contact with the green feathers. The black cat in the brown bed is looking towards the kitten neither of them are looking at the photographer. Close-up of the little black kitty in the brown bed with the green and red feather teaser over her head. She’s looking up at the photographer very sternly. A larger black cat - Simón - is crouched on a piece of brown craft paper on the light blue patterned carpet looking down at the floor as the green and red feathers are drawn out from underneath, and he is reaching forward with his left paw.

Everyone snuggling except Jojo - maybe she needs a little bit more gabapentin

A group of five cats are snuggling on a gray fleece heated blanket. There’s a red blanket under the gray blanket. The seal point Siamese is closest to the front of the photo. The three black cats are sitting with their back sides towards the orange tabby kitten who is in the middle.

Meowmy got home AFTER SUNSET! We were so hungry! Lucky there’s KIBBLE and she didn’t make us wait to eat wet food, which takes too much time and we gobbled this down so fast

Five cats eating in a group where the hardwood floor meets the linoleum - a ginger tabby kitten closest to the bottom of the photo on the white linoleum — head to head with a black cat eating from two separate round stainless steel dishes. Back left a smaller black cat is eating from brown stainless steel dish on a black-and-white melamine tray. In the back right there is a black cat and a very large seal point Siamese cat snacking away from another black-and-white melamine tray. The Siamese is eating from a stainless steel dish, but the friend next to him is just eating off the tray. They are very focused on their food.

A ginger tabby, and a black cat are in a hallway on a blue patterned carpet. These nighttime and they are illuminated by the dim overhead ceiling light. In the adjacent doorway, there is a cardboard box with fluffy fabric, kennel, quilts, and behind that you can see the sewing room with lights on Here there are two black cats in the hallway with the box of kennel quilts — Simón is standing with his front paws on the flap of the box close to the edge looking at the photographer. Eclipse is sitting a couple feet away at the end of the hallway runner in cat loaf position Valentino, the seal point Siamese cat, is sitting in the box of kennel quilts to make sure that they meet quality standards The photographer is holding up a red and green plaid kennel quilt with gold threads reflecting the light. It is square and the center is puffy and it looks very comfortable for kitties

Tiny Tony thinks that the new location of the freestanding size scratcher is a perfect perch for his tiny bottom

#gingertuxedo #gingercat #gingertabby #kitten #blackcatranch #siamese #cat #catsofbluesky
A beautiful orange kitty with orange eyes is sitting perched on the square top of a side scratching post in front of a washing machine. His paws are lined up against the edge of the top of the post and he’s looking at the photographer. He is also a tuxedo and a spotted tabby.

I love Christmas and normally I'd be getting so excited right about now, but this year I'm a little down because it's our first holiday since we lost Fergus. I'm hoping I can spread some cheer and regain a little spirit myself by raising some funds for our local shelter! givebutter.com/n5l31M

Three cats are seated on a light blue cushion at an open window — all looking out with their backs to the photographer — the ginger tabby kitten is on the left and looks nearly as big as Eclipse and Simón the black cats on the right It’s day and the sky is clear light blue past the screen. Wind chimes hang over the kitties heads

Three black cats are sitting on a coffee table. The two black cats on the left are about the same size and sitting in a similar position. The furthest left cat - Simón - tail is dropping off the edge of the coffee table. The middle cat - Eclipse - tail is wrapped around his feet. Jojo - The cat on the right is smaller and she is sitting nearly in cat loaf position And is looking directly at the photographer. It is daylight, and the sunlight is coming through the window to their spot on the table in the center of the living room.

Tony demonstrating the new quilt in daylight #logcabin #quilt #bedroom #gingertabby #kitten
An orange ginger spotted tabby tuxedo kitten sits in the center of the quilt at the foot of the bed. The quilt is log cabin with lavender fabrics around the outside and blue fabrics toward the center. Half of each of blocks are narrower strips and black than the other half of the blocks. So instead of putting giant circle circles, the quilter made a wavy stream.
