This cute picture of Sugar Plum is begging for a witty caption but for the life of me I couldn’t think of one that wasn’t overdone.
Sugar Plum, a black and white tuxedo kitten with a cute black nose spot, lays on foster dad’s lap with one paw curled up under her head as if she was leaning on it in a reclining posture.

Laguna is a very interesting little dude. He loves affection but doesn’t really hang out with people when given the option. He doesn’t dislike the other kittens but it’s clear he’s still figuring out what play is & how to interact with them. He keeps to himself for naps. Sweet little weirdo. ❤️
Laguna, a brown tabby and white kitten, lays atop a scruffy well-used cat scratching tower, dangling one leg off the top and looking over at the camera.

Another intake tonight from Final Fantasy colony. This total sweetheart of an orange is probably either Mama Spot’s brother or possibly a son (but probably brother). He has an icky upper respiratory infection, a wobble and a head tilt, so he’ll be going to the vet tomorrow.

Say hello to our first rescue of 2026, a very skinny little boy from the never-ending Final Fantasy colony. Unlike a lot of these FF colony kittens who have required a little bit of work by the time they are this old, he is apparently so relieved to be in a warm and friendly lap. Look at this boy!!

amazing how the entire machine can pivot within 24 hours. no need to slowly upsell the argument; just issue new marching orders
Matt Walsh tweeted last year: "We've spent the last 25 years bringing "freedom" and "democracy" to countries around the globe while our own country has been systematically invaded and now our largest cities are run by foreigners and communists. If you want to know why I'm so avowedly non-interventionist, this is why." Then he tweeted today: ""This is a war for oil!!!!!" First of all, the "war" lasted like 90 minutes. Second, going to war to secure vital resources for your own people is totally legitimate. Why should we allow some third world communist shithole to control trillions of dollars worth of oil?" Laura Loomer tweeted last year: "I’m America First, I don’t support “Regime Change”. I went on @Bannons_WarRoom to talk about Chinese aggression in Venezuela and why we need to designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a foreign Islamic terrorist organization." Then she tweeted yesterday: "Maduro has arrived at the DEA office in Manhattan. He was transported in an armored motorcade after being transported in a blindfold via helicopter & then by plane to New York after his compound in Caracas was raided by US Special Forces. Proud to be an American today! USA 🇺🇸" Catturd tweeted last year: "Name one U.S. inspired regime change that hasn’t ended in absolute disaster." Then he tweeted yesterday: "Venezuela is now more free than New York City." Will Chamberlain tweeted last year: "The Republican Party is no longer the party of regime change and endless wars If you want to be its standard-bearer that is a non-negotiable position" Then he tweeted yesterday: "I can think of few better uses of my tax dollars than black-bagging the head of a foreign narco-trafficking organization that enriches itself by addicting and poisoning my fellow Americans"

Our three Shakespearean ladies are doing amazing after just a few weeks with the wonderful @fluffandwobbles.bsky.social , who has a way with these shy types. No barn homes needed for these nice girls! Juliet is an absolute lap baby and Beatrice and Ophelia are continuing to be more sweet every day.

In a sea of 2025 impact wrap-ups, here is ours. It’s little, and a few cases left me a bit broken, but it’s still good.
Last year we took 80 cats into our care (not including cats we TNR’d). Almost all of them were adopted (still waiting for the Auto Club cats). Rescues, surrenders, low-income help—
Jorts Junior, “J.J.”, a cute orange tabby cat with soft looking fur and suspicious looking eyes. He was our first rescue of 2025. He was adopted with Baby Ruth, and they are both living their best lives as Archie & Greg. Winter, a skinny grey and white kitten. He was being sold on FB because the people “didn’t want him any more” and it stressed the entire internet out. He was adopted by his foster through Animal Rescue League near Baltimore in a great team up with Show Your Soft Side and ARL Satsuma and his sister Tangerine, two orange tabby cats who look very worried right after being trapped. Ellie, originally named “Molly,” a longhaired tortico cat with long white whiskers. She remains missing in the SE DC/Temple Hill, MD area. Her moms miss her so much and so do we.

Uncle Potato was adopted in Arizona, but if FIV+ former toms are your thing, we have several available!!

Baker, Mason, Medium Cheddar, and Busta Rhymes, who are all the "same" as Uncle Potato. We have a transport headed to California right after Christmas. AZ would be best!

If you need some gorgeous flame point siblings and you’re in the Bel Air/Baltimore, MD region, reach out via email to Shadow Cats TNR in Bel Air (shadowcatstnr.org). One boy and one girl, both extremely cute and very curious. I wish we had room to take them into our rescue because I love them.

Have you seen Peaches yet?? She’s another owner surrender that the amazing @bloatytoe.bsky.social & @porkbuns.bsky.social took in after her humans didn’t want her. She’s about 9 months old & so affectionate w/a big personality. She’ll be ready to go after New Year’s! She reminds me of Monkey somehow

They can coexist with other cats, and if you give them a little time and patience and a lot of love (and churus), they will return your affection with head boops and purrs.

What I would love more than anything for the holidays is for our two most shy mama cats to find their forever homes.

Little Ru had a squinty eye the other day, and despite lots of prompt eye antibiotics, it decided to turn into an ouchy ulcer on his cornea so we went to the vet for some serum. He felt safe up here and was very brave when they had to shoot the scary stain in his eye. Probably got poked by a sibling

I’m in my feels today as all my remaining bottle babies have gone into adoption centers and I do not have my snuggly babies at home & I’m just very emotional that sometimes I wish I could just be a helicopter dad & keep them all safe with me always.
Adopt some kittens, y’all

Tinsel is also terrible for wildlife once you dispose of the tree!

Other holiday dangers for cats:

Lillies (do not even bring them in your home!)
Poinsettias
Essential Oils (Lavender and others)
Grapes/Raisins
Garlic & Onions
